“The more exposure the band gets… The less privacy I have. It’s difficult because I’m a loner, always was a loner. Even when I was in grade school I was a loner, and so I find it difficult sometimes. I don’t want to be some outgoing, y’know, celebrity type person. When I know deep down I’m really not. So a lot of times I’ll be the quiet person that I have to be and sometimes people think that’s just arrogance or something, but it really isn’t. It’s just the way I am.” “ I feel that… I’m disappointing people and uh, I don’t want to disappoint people.” I’ve watched/read probably most of his interviews, and I think he’s definitely an INFP 4w5. I recommend watching Murder in The Front Row; it’s a Thrash Metal documentary about the ‘80s Bay Area Thrash Metal scene, and a lot of important key figures like Hammett, Hetfield, the guys from Exodus, et cetera, are featured in the documentary. Other than it being very informative and entertaining, it also pretty blatantly shows how Hammett is an INFP through the interviews and such.
