Robert Trujillo

Each album you make, each body of music, you just never know how the world's going to relate to it.

I feel, in my life, in any situation I've been in, I've always been sort of in the middle.

There is a lot of energy between Lars and James, and sometimes that energy can erupt. I know that before I was in the band, Kirk was the guy who was often in the middle, and it was important at that time. And now I feel like sometimes I'm the guy that's in the middle between not just James and Lars, but even Kirk.

Any band that you have, any relationship in your life, is gonna come with moments of tension.

I think that young people should embrace artists like Lemmy from Motorhead but also be open to different styles.

Don't make music to make money, because that's not why you should be doing it. Have fun, be creative, and embrace the past.
