This may be a bit of a surprise to those who only know Kirk Hammett as a professional headbanger, but he actually has a fun, youthful side to him.

And while Metallica went through numerous creative changes over the years, one thing that remained constant was Hammett's signature six-string style.

But there's quite a bit more to Hammett than simply being the lead guitarist for Metallica. I remember months in and months out, in Gary's [Holt, guitarist] garage, playing cover songs, trying to write songs that were as good as the songs we were covering, and just finding ourselves through our instruments and our music and just playing together."

But even after his place in Metallica was secure, Hammett kept some remnants from his time with Exodus, reusing a riff he'd written for their song "Impaler" for "Trapped Under Ice." In another interview with Louder Sound, the guitarist said, "They came from songs I had written, music I had written.

Hammett is slated to work with co-writer Marcel Feldmar on the comic book "Nights of Lono," a horror-mystery series that, according to a press release, "tells the story of a troubled female detective in 1989 Hawaii who is hired to find King Kamehameha's tomb before it is discovered by an unscrupulous occultist from the mainland."

In addition to his ginormous comic book collection, Kirk Hammett also has a ginormous horror memorabilia collection that consists largely of billboards, posters, placards, and lobby cards.

I think they knew it bugged me. It was a statement around all that. From that point on, everyone who cares has seen the music industry go on this total downward spiral."

For those who don't remember or weren't even born, the controversy saw Metallica sue P2P file sharing service Napster when the company allowed a demo version of their song "I Disappear" to be shared by many users on their platform for free.

Their fifth album, The Black Album, is one of the reasons why many people believe Metallica’s lead guitarist is gay. He's most famous for forming Primus, a band that has fused funk, alternative, and experimental elements into a sound that's hard to describe but easy to enjoy. to Self-Destruct," something that's never happened on a Metallica record.

I like being in control of what I put into my body. Lani’s first, and possibly last, date.

Also, some people claim that Lani and Kirk met at a hay bar. I can pay more attention now to my hobbies. The ex-couple has also not revealed the reason for their divorce.

Kirk Hammett remarried Lani Gruttadauro on January 31, 1998, after divorcing his ex-wife Rebecca Enrica Kestelyn in 1991.

What's worse is that he lost the phone during the period that Metallica was working on the next album after 2008's "Death Magnetic." Hammett told Jamey Jasta that, of the 250 riffs that are now gone, "I can only remember, like, eight of them. I put the poster up on a huge pedestal and I just started buying all the older stuff."

Not one to keep his interests a secret, Hammett shared his assemblage of horror movie memorabilia with the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, in 2020.

Kirk appears to be the one who is most at ease in the group’s poses.

Ulrich, on the other hand, claims that it’s all a joke, and Hammett hasn’t said or done anything to back up the rumors. The band released definitive album after definitive album throughout the 1980s, establishing Hammett as one of the great metal guitar soloists of the era.
