JAKARTA - In an interview with Jesse and JD from CJAY 92 and Canada's iHeartRadio, Robert Trujillo was asked if according to him Metallica was a band that would always continue to write and record new music. This is the bassist's answer.

"One of the blessings and curses for us is that we have so many musical ideas, like new ideas, and we love making albums. Many bands have existed since during Metallica, at some point, such as encountering obstacles or they have difficulty creating at that level," said Rob.

"And I feel that we are a band... I mean, I hope we will record music more often and don't have to wait so long, but we are a band that has a lot of ideas, a lot of riffs, a lot of music.

"And if you look at Kirk's [Hammett] riff collection, it's like hundreds. Or me or James [Hetfield]... you can do so much. So we don't actually have enough albums for all the ideas we have."

He continued: "So I'll imagine, yes, we're going to keep making new music. And if you're listening to a new album [72 Seasons], I think it's for the best - definitely the best I've done since I'm in this band. So, there's no shortage of new music for the future. It's just a matter of when we're going to record it. It's another story. "

Trujillo, who was born on October 23, 1964 in Santa Monica, California, felt the success of the punk-funk guitarist Suicidal Tendencies and the band owned by Ozzy Osbourne. But in 2003, he successfully auditioned to replace Jason Newsted in Metallica, a process recorded in the documentary Some Kind of Monster.
