Trujillo said that because the group had just completed its new album, "Death Magnetic", playing the Reading Festival felt like a "new challenge."

He said: "It is amazing. Reading is legendary and for us to be here again is an honour and a privilege."

He continued: "The great thing about this festival is that the crowds are always mad. We love that, we feed off that.

"For us, every show we do is a personal thing — the British audience have always been amazing and supportive.
