Lars Ulrich and Robb Flynn have both been sharing the love for the UK, as they prepare to close out their European run together in the UK this week.

“The UK was the first place in the world that really got Metallica, so it always holds a really special place in our hearts,” the Metallica sticksman remembers fondly. “When we play there, it’s like going home almost.”

Robb Flynn simplifies everything into one simple sentence: “We intend to go in there and destroy everything!”

Metallica will return to the UK this week and will complete their European tour at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday, March 28th. You can join Metal Hammer for a special Guitar Hero: Metallica party at the Indigo2 this Saturday too. Find details of the party here!
