JAKARTA - Lars Ulrich's new interview has aired on Metallica's Mandatory, Metallica's exclusive SiriusXM channel. The drummer talked about what Metallica meant to him.

"For me, the best part is just one of the main parts of Metallica's experiences, namely community and collective and sharing experiences," Ulrich said.

"I was the only child growing up. I listened to most of my music myself in my early years. But then you start hanging out with your friends and sharing that musical experience. And the reason I want to be in a band is to play music and share music with other people like people think like me," he continued.

"So, being in a band, being out there and playing and playing shows, it's all about that communal experience, trying to break down those barricades, the physical barricades between the band and the audience and just trying to get us all one. To try to find ways to gather everyone and share."

Metallica's Mandatory is back for a limited time to celebrate the upcoming heavy metal giant album, 72 Seasons.

The channel starts on Tuesday and will run until May 3 and is available to SiriusXM subscribers nationwide in their cars (105 channel) and in the SXM application.

SiriusXM's Mandatory Metallica features violent and heavy rock music, including remaster, demos, alternative mixing, concerts, and their favorite songs by other artists.
