I like the final line here :)

Since bassist Jason Newsted left METALLICA in 2001 to form the short-lived
ECHOBRAIN, METALLICA fans have wondered whether Newsted has ever regretted
exiting the band. "I tell you very honestly, 1 billion percent, I have never
regretted leaving METALLICA," Newsted tells RollingStone.com. "It was the
right thing for everyone. It was the right thing to do for the camp, that's
it. I've never told anyone that I wanted to go back or anything like that,
not once. I made up my mind. It was not an easy thing to do, but it was
something I had to do. I thought about it very much before I pulled the
trigger, and because of that, I have never looked back. The past is where
its supposed to be."

He adds, "I was one of the biggest fan of the band before I went in, and I'm
a METALLICA fan still. I was always the one person in the world who had an
inside look and an outside look at the band, at the same time, and now, I've
been out for a while, and I'm able to be a fan again."

Does that mean Newsted likes "Death Magnetic"? "It was better than 'St.
Anger'," he says.

Hardly difficult was it?

I read that as a thinly veiled dismissal of both albums.

Not played it for months. The only Met that I have been playing are
the bootlegs.

I believe I skipped endings of a few songs when I tried to listen to
it. Never gave it a second listen.

Yeah the fun of playing DM is wearing off a bit now alright, however I
will still play a few tracks off it from time to time in the future,
unlike St.Anger!
