“We have to hear the stories of women at all ages of their lives in order to really present a picture of what it felt like to be alive in our time.

“Metallica lives in a little bubble. We just do our own thing. We're not part of any trends or waves or fads. We can just do our own thing, all the time. It's a great luxury. I don't think we were really appreciative of it until recently, and really understood that it is what keeps us alive.
