Crazy to think the "new guy " has been in the band for nearly 20 years!

[salembeats]

I remember watching st anger and the band was amazed at how fast he could play with his fingers, they where playing battery and Kirk said it hasn’t been played that way since cliff Rob is a fucking beast bro

[PiazzaGurl]

Rob is the one Metallica was meant to keep. He was the balance they needed.

[ridethelightning]

Wow that is so nice... that's probably the most amazing compliment you can get from your boss/band mate

[oliverjackson]

I love the fact that each era of Metallica is marked by the change of their Bass player & each one was instrumental for making those eras amazing.
For instance if Robert Trujillo joined Metallica in the 80's that wouldn't have been a good fit, or if Cliff Burton joined in the 2000's it wouldn't mesh right. Each Bass player was destined for those points of time.

[TheDrugFreeThrasher]

I don’t personally think he “helped” Metallica. I think he damn well saved Metallica.

[kobra]

Trujillo has been in metallica longer than Burton and Newsted combined. Let that sink in

[diogomartins]

Rob is underrated cause he makes it look easy !

[MurderLegendre]

Lars and James are a top 5 song writing duo in the history of music as far as I'm concerned.

"It is nice having another calm person in the camp you know"😅
If you listen Robert speaking, he has this calm energy that is total opposite of his stage appereance.

[nihilosphere]

Thanks to Jason for teaching them a lesson on how to treat people.

[dnmoscato]

I doubt Rob asks what album disposable is on. Lol he was the one that finally got them to play dyers eve and damage Inc. I think he knows what albums they are on

[carpenoctem]

Robert is a legend. Great guy and talented as Hell. Quite a resume, from ST to Ozzy to Met.

[mclovinpo]

He went to my bands death metal show, I got to talk to rob bassist to bassist. His son was playing that night. It was amazing he’s just a regular guy

[katekrylov]

I am not an expert, of course, but it seems to me that Rob is the most stable person in the group, the least prone to all kinds of tantrums and psychotic episodes. That's not quite a compliment for a member of a heavy metal band ( got to be all naked nerves and high tension, ha!), but certainly can help to keep peace and maintain the balance.

[justinliberti]

I love how the entire MetallicA family welcomed Rob and the love has only grown over the last 20 plus (!) years

[KZfps]

Metallica has been fortunate to have 3 great bassists. Cliff was a god, obviously, but Jason and Rob have both brought their own unique traits to Metallica. I really appreciate Rob for not only being a great bass player and composer, but also for being just a good dude.

[RT-ifij]

If Metallica do manage to do another album I hope Rob and Kirk get more of a say in it. I’ve heard people say Robs just in Metallica to play bass but this guy has talent and with the experience and bands he’s played in he could bring a lot more too the music. Also a lot of Metallicas bests riffs have came from Kirk. Give us an album that’s not just James and lars.

[ItsMeScareCro]

I remember seeing Rob when he was touring with Suicidal back on Lights Camera Revolution, one of the BEST shows I ever saw!

[Galactis]

Rob does such a great job, on the newest two albums, I think he makes the whole band sound really good. I mean his playing sounds great!
