佩洛尼（Peloni）的评论：有趣的是，金属乐队（Metallica）在过去几十年里一直处于音乐行业的最前沿。他们始终坚持将自己对音乐的评论与表达作为核心，而不是让自身的知名度被用来支持政治目的（就像许多其他音乐偶像，如邦·乔维（Bon Jovi）和布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀（Bruce Springsteen）那样）。因此，他们不仅拒绝让自己的演出场地被用于支持某些政治活动，还明确表示自己的音乐不会被用来制造政治分歧——这一点其实并不令人意外。
PELONI: It is interesting that Metallica has been at the forefront of the music industry for the past few decades and they have made a point of consistently focusing their commentary on their music rather than allowing their popularity to be pirated towards supporting political ventures such as has been done with many other music icons such as Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen. So it should surprise no one that they would not only not allow their venues to be manipulated to support the River to the Sea crowd, but that they would actually make a statement that their music would not be transformed into a similar vehicle for political divisions as is becoming popular with others. Metallica’s James Hetfield rejects political preaching at concerts.
金属乐队的主唱詹姆斯·赫特菲尔德（James Hetfield）在演唱会上坚决拒绝任何政治说教。乐队长期以来一直反对对以色列的抵制行动，这一事实更凸显了他们的立场。
Here’s why the band’s history of defying the Israel boycott makes it even better.
作者：大卫·兰格（David Lange） | 《Honest Reporting》 | 2026年10月13日（ Bryan）因支持巴勒斯坦独立运动而成为新闻焦点；看到这样一位知名音乐人采取截然不同的立场，实在令人耳目一新。
By David Lange | Honest Reporting | October 13, 2026 Screengrab via Youtube With the likes of rapper Macklemore and country singer Zach Bryan making the news in recent weeks due to their Free Palestining, it’s refreshing to see a major musician taking a decidedly different approach.
我们谈论的可是詹姆斯·赫特菲尔德——金属乐队的主唱，这支乐队无疑是世界上最受欢迎、最成功的乐队之一，也是史上最伟大的重金属乐队之一。
And not just any musician. We’re talking about James Hetfield, frontman of Metallica, one of the most popular and successful bands in the world – and arguably the biggest heavy metal band of all time.
在10月10日于拉斯维加斯举行的演出中，赫特菲尔德明确表示：金属乐队的粉丝不应期待任何政治说教或试图左右他们思想的言论，他们应该看到的只是纯粹的音乐、激情，以及充满能量的演出。
During a concert at the Sphere in Las Vegas on October 10, Hetfield made it abundantly clear that fans attending Metallica concerts shouldn’t expect political lectures, virtue signaling, or attempts to tell them what to think.
在此之前，他还批评了那些自以为观众花钱是为了听他们发表政治观点的“艺人”。
Just good old-fashioned love, energy, and heavy music.
金属乐队（Metallica）在以色列也有过演出经历，他们曾三次来到这里：1993年、1999年和2010年。最后一次演出是在2010年5月22日的拉马特甘体育场（Ramat Gan Stadium）。当时，一些反对以色列的人强烈要求他们取消这次演出，但金属乐队依然坚持举办了演出。
But not before taking a swipe at those so-called “entertainers” who apparently believe their audiences paid good money to hear their political opinions. Metallica also has a history in Israel, having played here three times: in 1993, 1999, and 2010. That last show, at Ramat Gan Stadium on May 22, 2010, came at a time when Israel haters were pressing them to skip Israel.
或许那些主张“解放巴勒斯坦”的艺人应该向金属乐队学习——对他们来说，唯一重要的就是音乐本身。
Metallica played anyway. Perhaps the “Free Palestine” entertainers should take a lesson from Metallica.
