- On this episode, we’re joined by Kirk Hammett of Metallica to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the “Kill ‘Em All” album. In this special installment of Metal Mayhem ROC, we go back in time for an in-depth look back at the rehearsals & the recording of the album that took place in our hometown of Rochester, NY in 1983.
In this feature conversation, Kirk gets reacquainted with some of the people who lived it with Metallica, both professionally & on the friendship side of the relationships with the band. Showcased in this exclusive interview are over 40 never seen before candid photos from the studio & the surrounding Rochester area, Lakeshore Record Exchange, The Riverboat concert with Raven & so much more, all of which have been unearthed from personal collections & scrapbooks! In addition, we re-visit with the MetLife Stadium (NJ) August 2023 gigs & Kirk reveals what his passion is for New Jersey outside of music (hint: sand & surf), and he opens up about his fervor for Deep Purple & Tommy Bolin.
This is a true trip down Heavy Metal memory lane & a unique conversation that unveils the human & personal side of this Heavy Metal legend, brought to you exclusively from Metal Mayhem ROC.
Thank you for the support and remember to always KEEP IT HEAVY.

This is gold, thank you all for making this possible, these memorys are the stuff that truly matters the most. To relate as real people, to see the past, the struggle of the early days with no money, no clue of when your next meal, or bottle of beer, or if there is another meal, or beer, or place to sleep, was the reality of these guy's. There was no plan "B". It was do or die, against all odds, and they did it! All my respect and love to the boy's. Metallica is the greatest band in the history of metal, in my opinion the best band of all time. Keep creeping Kirk!!!😊
Thank you for taking the time to speak about what you thought about the commentary. Was our pleasure to share this gold content with fellow fans. I invite you to check out our website www.metalmayhemroc.com
I was front row at the load tour in worcestor mass. At the end the guys went around shaking hands n stuff. James kinda just walked by smiled and waved Lars ran around and smacked everybody's hand but Jason grabbed my hand like we were gonna arm wrestle n we touched fore heads and Kirk shook my hand with a very firm grip n said "thank you for being here" to me. I'll never forget that
That's the Kirk that we know and love. Thank you for listening watching and taking the time to comment. I invite you to go to our website www.metalmayhemroc com
www.metalmayhemroc.com
i was there ass well.....loud!!!
Kirk is so down to earth. (And patient). You can tell how caught up in the busyness of Metallica and the music industry (he is). Kirk's old buddies are funny as hell. This podcast is the best.
Finally we know who said "bass solo, take one"
I always thought it was cliff lol
Nope..it was Andrew.
How is Andrew's last name spelled? That should be entered into Wikipedia.
same@@armyinfantry1227
Deep, deep trivia!
It’s cool how animated Kirk gets, I’ve rarely seen him get excited in interviews 😂😂
It wasn't your ordinary interview. You were privy to like a fly on the wall conversation.
Hes clean these days :). Benzos take the life out of people. edit: and alcohol
This interview was just casually sitting in my recommended feed. So glad I clicked through… The amount of value this interview serves toward Metallica and metal/rock history is insane!
Thank you for that. We really appreciate you finally clicking on it. Lol. I invite you to check out the rest of our content as we try to present cool interviews and other stuff for you guys.www.metalmayhemroc.com
We definitely need another one of these but with James and lars and Kirk and them reacting to the ride the lightning era.
It's always a treat hearing new (old) Cliff Burton stories. Great Show!!! Thanks Kirk!!!
Yes it is indeed. Thank you for listening and commenting
i love how kirks laugh or voice hasnt changed
Kirk is really a humble guy..
Very humble. Good natured. We spent a bit of time speaking that never made it to the final interview. Really was generous with his time and it was a cool discussion.
I dig how Kirk still has that kid like vibe!
Totally. thank you for commenting.
This must be one of the best interviews to a Metallica member that I've ever seen, what a GREAT material! Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time and commenting and expressing your interest. Is a long time Metallica fan this was a treat for me as well. All we ask is you share it with all your Metallica friends.www.metalmayhemroc.com
I am from the ROC and all these places I remember even though I am much younger. But all classics! Watching Kirk get hit buy the memories after talking about it.
Thank you for listening... And from being from The "ROC"...
LET ME ASK YOU HOW DID YOU COME ACROSS OUR INTERVIEW?
Seeing color pics of them in that studio is just mind-blowing. I've had images of my own in my head for so long.
Thank you for commenting and viewing. Bang that head that does not bang...
Given their budget its actually not surprising that studio is not really a recording studio at all. They are recording the drums in a room with windows and a giant fireplace. Talk about guerrilla recording. ***its called black dog recording studio now. The photos match up.
This is wild! So crazy to see these pics and hear these stories for the first time! Best Metallica content I’ve seen in MANY MANY years. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and more importantly to send us a message. We thank you. I invite you to check out our website and see what other outstanding content we have to offer.www.metalmayhemroc.com
Those pictures in the beginning from recording the record are pretty incredible.
this ruled! it was awesome seeing Kirk interact with people that he met before they broke big. killer podcast!
Kirk is an absolute treasure. I was afraid that he lost his ability, but I went to Texas in August to see them and they're as good as they've ever been.
Amazing! Thanks for the upload!
so cool seeing all these unseen pictures. great interview!
I'm just about to watch it, thank you guys. This is going to be a blast.
Very cool, thanks guys! 🤘
Amazing interview guys! Very interesting to be able to hear this stories and to see old photos.
These seem like very good times! 🤘🏻
Every time I watch one of these anniversary videos, it always reminds me how gifted I was to be an adult when these albums first came out and so therefore I could off really appreciate the musicianship.
I had seen these pictures floating around and I'm so glad this interview finally funneled into my suggestions. Thank you for helping add to the legendary chronicles of one of the most important bands to ever exist. Thank you ❤
You're more than welcome man. We're very fortunate to have this content and have the connection with the band. We invite you to check out the rest of our content is you may enjoy what we do.www.metalmayhemroc.com
Dang this was soooo good. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this interview. Kirk has always been an intriguing gem. ❤
This is awesome !! Thanks a lot !
Great interview guys!
Great interview! Thank you!!!!!
That was awesome. Kirk is obviously appreciative of his time in Rochester and recalls pretty much all of it. Nice works putting this interview together guys. Freakin' fantastic! If you want to carpool to Boston let me know. I can deal with being in the pit while you guys sip champagne backstage.
Insane content. Very rare photos!! The life and times of the first album inside out 🤘🔥
This video randomly popped up in my feed and it’s so great! I grew up in Canandaigua but had family in Monroe County so I always considered myself a Rochester native. I got into Metallica in the early 90’s when I was about 11 years old. It wasn’t until a few years later I found out that they recorded Kill ‘Em All in Rochester and I was shocked! For my generation that’s like finding out Led Zeppelin or The Rolling Stones recorded their first album in your hometown. I’ve always wanted to hear the band talk about their experiences in Rochester so I just wanted to say thank you for this!
just reached the end, it’s awesome seeing exclusive photos that haven’t been in previous documentaries. plus, the storytelling just paints a clearer picture.
thanks guys !
Thank you for taking the time to comment. We appreciate that and I hope you enjoy the end product
This is incredible! Wow! Legendary album and listen to it all the time. So great to hear these stories and see pics from recording it.
Holy shit! Some first seen pics....wow! Insane to see new pics never seen by anyone before, even Kirk! \m/
Great video. I really hope the other two will do the same, the stories are so funny to hear.
Awesome interview! Shout out to Rob Thomas 🤘
Shout BACK!!
Wow what a great thing to watch these guys seeing each other again and reminiscing after all these years. I feel like I was part of it. Fuck yeah!!!🤘💥💫
Fantastic conversation guys.🤘
Amazing interview into the enviornment of the album making and that period of the band
AWESOME interview! This is priceless. Man, I missed them by a few months! I left town just before then. I worked at Art Stocks Playpen for a long time and used to go to House of Guitars all the time just to hang out. I know WGMC is a jazz station now, but I honestly have never heard of it. Lived here all my life (mostly). Maybe because I never rolled the dial lower than 90.5. or when WRUR was a thing.
Great, great interview. An hour went by so fast! Can't wait to see Rob hanging out with the guys, his stories are the best 🔥

Amazing interview and the pictures and stories just add so much more in depth as to how things came about. It puts a whole different spin on the things that I’ve come to build in my mind. I Cannot Thankyou enough for sharing all this

I truly felt like I was watching old buddies catch up at a bbq since adult life has taken over. Insanely cool and all best reasons why I love Kirk. Not only because he looks and reminds me of my dad, but his personality is truly just you and I, humbled.
Thank you for taken the time to watch and comment. YES!!!! Kirk is one cool as hell guy.
This is amazing! I love Kirks interviews and his down to earthness and his memory is incredible. Dont forget he`s never seen these pictures and he`s just straight in the moment, taking us back there with him. Despite the hugeness of Metallica they`re still so accessible, theres still that connection with the fans and after 35 years (for me) I still feel part of it. For the record I got one of Kirks picks at the second Manchester show in 2019 and was feet away from him when he (as always) was thanking the fans at the end. A true gentleman.
Thank you for taking the time to comment after watching this show. I must ask how did you come across our channel and this episode?
Awesome interview and those rare pics !!!
Thank you for listening and taking the time to send a comment. We invite you to check out all our content at www.metalmayhemroc.com
I met one of the Old Bridge militia guys a couple of years while I was waiting in a bank, He was easy to spot because his jacket had Old Bridge Militia in the Metallica logo. He told me a lot of stories of partying and rocking out with all the Metallica boys in the 83.
Yeah we met a lot of them this summer over the weekend up at the Jersey MetLife show. Great guys and girls.
Kirk Hamster!
Killer interview!
Thank you Metal Mayhem ROC!!! 🤘
Thank you for listening and taking the time to comment.wwwmetalmayhemroc.com
Kirt, you guys were a great inspiration for many of us as well. Kill em All did a lot for me changed my whole perspective, you guys were innovators. That album is among my favorite all time.
Who’s kirt?
this was aweome man, thank you!
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
Awesome!!
I live down here in Rochester, I work at the house of guitars, I’m 19 and honestly I love this
I heard Rob Barrett of CANNIBAL CORPSE and SOLSTICE talking on one of the out takes of the Centuries of Torment DVD on youtube about buying a very important guitar to him from HOUSE OF GUITARS in Rochester.
He said it was a Les Paul sitting in the window when he was an "unsigned" young metalhead.
7 years later he went back after getting into CORPSE and having two nickels to rub together, and the same guitar was still there and he was able to buy it.
I loved that story.
You guys at that store have heavy metal cred and a hand in the history. A legacy to be proud of..
I'm in need of a high gain combo amp.
Maybe I'll check out the online site ( if you have one) when I'm done cruising youtube.
OMG I remember the King Biscuit Flour Hour !!! I also remember Fade To Black was the very last song KNAC ever played !!! KNAC if people aren't knowing cause they aren't old like me , KNAC was our metal station out of Long Beach Calif. and Metallica was huge on that station in the 80's , I have been rocking with the fellas since 1986 !!!!! Love you guys !!!!!
KNAC was such a huge station for Rock. Sad it had to go and Fade to Black was a fit ending😢
This was awesome.
Great interview
Greetings from Paris
Awesome deep info and old friends of the band...wow
What a fucking great interview!!!! This is truly a gem! Kill Em All changed my fucking life!!!! Thanks guys.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and to comment.
This was a good watch. The old stories are awesome. I'm 39. So when Black Album came out, I vaguely remember my parents listening to it. Certainly enter sandman. But at 13 or so, kill em all was my Metallica album. So 1997. Load was out, but wasn't my speed at the time, however, Load and reload Now are my favorite periods along with Garage inc.
I'm 41 and I became a Metallica fan between the release of Load and ReLoad, so those albums are very nostalgic to me, but my first Metallica album purchase was the black album and I have Weird Al to thank for that because he put Enter Sandman in one of his polka compilations. I thought that melody was so cool that I had to buy the album.
Amazing interview. I actually learned something new which is unusual for me these days with Metallica. It's great Kirk was all concerned with making it up when they didn't get on the guest list. Those guys never forget where they came from.
Absolute gem!
What a great fukin vid!!I could listen to this kind of stuff for dayz!! Thank You!!🤘🤘🤘
Thank you for taking the time to comment and for watching the video. Is a lifelong Metallica fan it was an honor to give this early Christmas gift to my fellow Metallica heads.

@@metalmayhemroc1851 I will definitely check it out!!
Kill em all is to this day one of my favorite albums. The energy on that album is unmatched and to this day ive yet to hear anyone recreate that guitar tone properly
It was my first exposure , obviously. It's on its own shelf
Seek & destroy was my 1st ever real metal song that hooked me into that genre of music ,
Love this! Get that dude some backstage passes.
Kirk is one of my childhood heros and so humble. He is the shit
Great interview, thanks! One of the best among the Snakepit Heavy Metal Magazine (the most informative Metal mag in world) with Ron McGovney. I guess there's more but these I know. Was the studio same where THE RODS recorded their Let Them Eat Metal album? A cold place in winter?
Kirk is cool man
I nuat seen history last nifht here in Riyadh saudi arabia it was amazing. We are america s living in Qatar and drove here for our daughters 18th birthday . It was amazing !!
I love listening to Kirk's interviews he's so incredibly incredible ❤ and Hot and gorgeous I just love ❤️ him
Kirt, I saw Deep Purple on their long farewell tour a couple years ago at Bethel Woods (original Woodstock site) and thought the same thing, it would be a great surprise if Ritchie came out there since he lives about an hour away. But he didn’t of course.
Spectacular !!!!
Thank you... If I can ask - How did you find us and the video?
Of course! I pretty much Googled Kirk old pictures and it came up! Thank you so much for showing it! History on the making!!!
Quick question: was this not a public video or dis I access something private? If so, my apologies!
@@dominiquez5643 Oh no no no it's on there for everyone to see. It's just a popular video and so I've just curious how people found it. I invite you to check out the rest of our content and visit our website it's probably a lot of stuff we do here you may enjoy.www.metalmayhemroc.com
