Metallica‘s bimbo Kirk Hammett recently did an interview with Ultimate-Guitar.com and said the following about his guitar playing “You know, I think as a metal guitar player, I am decent. I am no Eddie Van Halen, but I am still learning, am still learning stuff day to day and still feel like I am growing. I also still think that my music writing is still getting better.”.
For once, I’ve got to agree with Hammett. He is decent. That’s where I stop agreeing with him, though. He’s obviously not getting better but maybe he’s just learning the wrong stuff day to day? Maybe he should stop jamming to the latest Bullet for My Valentine record and listen to some… uh… metal?
