About this episode

The week of September 13, 2023 week on The Metallica Report…


Kirk Hammett is back, but this time, he’s talking surfing and how his approach to the waves differs from Robert’s. Later, Spencer Charnas describes his songwriting process and what it’s like to bring an Ice Nine Kills production to the Metallica stage.


Then we step off the stage and into the crowd to hear from a few fans. First, a passionate All Within My Hands supporter named Yuji Moore, who also happens to be an intelligence analyst in the United States Space Force. Then, Renee shares some clips she got while on the road, where a few enthusiastic Metallica Family members explain how Metallica music fuels them in their day-to-day lives.


Finally, Steff and Renee chat about The Metallica Black Box’s latest exhibit, 20 Years of Anger, celebrating St. Anger’s 20th Anniversary. Don’t forget - the virtual museum is always open and free!
