METALLICA MEMBERS SPEAK OUT ON DEATH VAGINA

Way back before Death Magnetic came out I observed that the album’s cover looked like a big, hairy vagine. I wasn’t alone. Naturally there was an entire army of like-minded Internet snobs ready with their super-soakers full of Haterade, but it turns out that the members of Metallica noticed the similarities too. In the “Extras” section of their recently releases live DVD Francais Pour Une Nuit, the members of Metallica were asked to comment on the matter.

I find it amusing that each band member’s personality really shows through their answers; Rob tries to paint the picture of a decision made by a band with “mystique” (despite the fact that he probably had zero input in the album cover), James is all “whatever you want it be,” and Lars frames it as a work of art while being the only band member who actually uses the word “pussy.” Love it. Where’s Kirk? I would’ve LOVED to hear his answer.
