STORY OF ROBERT

He's got rhythm, and he is most certainly got music. Now Robert Trujillo's also got the job of being Metallica's new bassist and family member... one that will doubthless fit most righteous and cheerful of Souther Californians like a glove.

Although he sometimes does use a pick, Trujillo is best known as a baaaad motherplucker, a finger-playin' bass monster who's dextrity, tones and attitude have seen him grace the best Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves and Ozzy Oscourne'S band since his first professional work with Suicidal in 1989. It all stems back to a childhood filled with variety and spice.

Growing up in Venice Beach "Dog Town". Trujillo heard everything from Led Zeppelin to Motown with a chunk in between. Joined with a young love of surfing. Trujillo developed a rhythm and a vibe that saw him play with a variety of local bands through his early 20s until he met Mike Muir of Suicidal Tendencies via his High School buddy Suicidal Tendencies guitarist Rocky George. The two got on infamously well, and began a rich and fruitful relationship whiþch saw Rob establish himself as one of the most exciting bass talents in the rock world.

In early 90s, he and Muir formed the experimental fuck-rockers Infectious Grooves, and then in the mid 90s Trujillo joined up with Ozzy Osbourne. Together with drummer Mike Bordin, Trujillo formed one of the most soild and reliable rhythm units.
