1. Metallica lost its metallic edge with the Loss of Jasons Playing and most of all his Vocals.. Robert just sounds like a little kid doing back up vocals in Metallica.. Jason just gave so much energy to that band that will never be recaptured without him

2. I thought he was going to buy his own country ?

3. I thought Jason said he can no longer play heavy metal music anymore.

4. Mar 8th. 2023

5. Gotta love Jason. He minds his own business and stays creative, different than whiny Mustaine who loses no opportunity to talk shit about Metallica.

6. Yeah yeah yeah. Hopefully he's figured out that it's all going to be out of pocked this time unlike when he toured with Newsted and was shocked to find out that he was going to get ZERO support like he was still in Metallica or something. I love the guy but damn.

7. Gotta Love Jason

8. Rob is a better bassist but Jason is a far better performer, his stage presence was better than everyone else in Metallica.

9. I want to audition for Jason's new project!!!

10. Hoax

11. Jason > Rob

12. Every new real metal band is welcome. Jason is one of a kind.

13. This is news just now? I have been listening to Newstead for months! Not Metallica but they go hard!

14. I thought he couldn't do heavy metal no more

15. I am keen for this. Can't wait for a HEAVY NEWSTED.

16. I thought he said he was done playing heavier songs because he physically can’t anymore?

17. Looking forward to Newsted getting heavy again. Soldierhead was awesome!

18. To say that Jason "played" with Metallica is stretching a bit. I do know several dogs that loved listening to his playing tho.

19. cant wait to see how this project sounds. jason is a fkn boss!

20. I will definitely be giving him the RESPECT that he deserves and give it a listen.

21. ✴✴!!! JASON !!!NEWSTED!!!✴✴

22. It be better if you had video clips of interviews instead of you reading the interview

23. Bro come on. Flotsam and jetsam. Go listen..

24. Let's be honest no one cared about him since he left Metallica he's lucky he get the residuals that can allow him to just screw around the rest of his life which is pretty freaking awesome! Good for him

25. Jason was perfect in metallica, that's all.

26. His last project was terrible 🤣🤣🤣 I doubt he can do anything good

27. You left out how him and his big fuckin mouth single handedly derailed the VH tribute. Fuck Him, he's like a little girl tattle tailing lol

28. Do a Flotsam reunion! Flotzilla!

29. I'm mad excited to see what Jason is putting together,I have his Newsted album he put out in 2013 and I love it can't wait he's a true legend 🤘🏻🤘🏻

30. Let's not forget he also played in Voivod and Ozzy's band for a while too! Those aren't nothing bands! Jason is the ultimate professional and carried himself well with Metallica. For those who said they should have tried to keep him, they did at first and tried like hell but he was really hurt and wouldn't return their call. When enough time passed for the wounds to start healing, he called them to re-join the band but by then, too much time had passed and they already moved on from him mentally and told him no.

31. Metallica fans hate The Black Album, The Loads and Justice has no bass.
    Also Metallica fans, Jason is the best thing that ever happened to Metallica.

32. Excited to hear Jason's new music. I'll be a fan of his forever!

33. Jason: leaves because he has no creative outlet in Metallica

    Kirk: Satan in Spawn OST

34. He's the only member of Metallica that I can stomach…

35. Metallica lost a huge part of its spirit when Newsted left. Trujillo is a great player but Metallica has never regained what they lost when Jason left. I'm still a fan but I sure do miss the Newsted days.

36. I have nothing but respect for Jason, James and Lars put him through hell. Lars thought it would be funny to turn off his bass on AJFA that's why you don't hear any bass on the album, I can't believe he stayed as long as he did there's no way I would of put up with those two assholes¥

37. It’s good to know that Jason is still doing music. Can’t wait to see his heavy new band.

38. I was about to say “not another why he left Metallica video”

39. ORLY

40. he was metallicas best bassist. period

41. I'm here I'll nail any guitar player as I'm a musician

42. Jason backing vocals are missed bigtime, and his power on stage. Rob can play a thousand notes on stage and probably a better player, but doesn't fit the live band like Jason did.

43. Jason Newstead is an amazing bass player and performer.

44. He doesn't seem to commit much to any bands for longer than a year or two. Metallica lasted 13 years but of course he was generating a ton income.
