Metallica and Judas Priest have been buds for quite sometime. Over the years, the San Fransisco metal heavyweights have admitted to being greatly influenced by the leather-clad troupe, and have also collaborated with them for a number of live performances. This July, James Hetfield and Rob Halford were even spotted rocking out together at Norway's Tons Of Rock Festival, which made for a totally wholesome moment.
Their well-documented bond is one of the reasons why we know that this video of Hetfield supposedly "mocking" Priest is all just playful banter. Filmed during the recording sessions for Metallica's eighth studio album, St. Anger, the behind the scenes Jump In The Studio footage shows Papa Het doing his best attempt at an impression of Priest's powerhouse frontman Rob Halford.
