In an interview on Mexican TV, the Danish-born drummer wore his heart on his sleeve when asked about the controversial plans to build the wall. "I don’t think the world needs any walls. I think we need to bring people together," Lars stated.
"Metallica travels all over the world, and through music we try to bring people together. So whether we’re in Mexico or whether we’re in Asia or whether we’re in Europe or whatever, we encourage as many different people from as many different backgrounds to come together and share music and life and culture and all these experiences.
“Being one Danish guy, being asked an opinion, I don’t think any walls are necessary, and I think that, increasingly, as far as Metallica traveling all over this beautiful planet, we break down barriers with music.”

Earlier this year, the band's guitarist Kirk Hammett also attacked the former reality TV star turned politician. Taking to Twitter, he had this to say about Donald Trump and the Alt-Right: “Pay attention people! Stand up for truth, compassion and togetherness. Don’t settle for anything less. Reject lies, fear-mongering, misguided anger. The system wants us divided, so it’s easier to control us emotionally.”
