Back down the Rabbit hole baby!!! Metallica “Master Of Puppets” Reaction

[@mattsaunders782]

The song is about drug addiction. So many suffer under that and this song brings a light to so many. Metal is a hard genre to get into. Those of us that listen to it regularly love seeing people stepping out of their “comfort” zone to experience a style of music that changed a lot of our lives. Y’all keep doin your thing and god bless y’all

[@movietimeateds69]

I used to be so put off by metal; but then I got into grunge. I like to think of Alice in chains as my intro to metal. Then I discovered judas priest and the rest is history.

[@iop5795]

My father raised me on Metallica l being 25 now and my father 47. but i never knew the meaning to the songs, now I am older and listen to the songs it all makes sense and I understand the songs so much more

[@carnage2380]

This is a personal favorite of mine for some of the reasons you stated. I am a recovering addict and used to listen to this at my lowest and now at my highest. I can now proudly say that I have been sober for just over 9yrs now.

[@puteraslayer]

Keep it strong dude be strong. You be ok stay save be save.

[@guitarwins1896]

Damn straight!

[@madcracker84]

The music itself tells a story. The first part is the addiction and want for the drug, the melodic calm part is the high and then slowly it fades away leaving you back to the addiction struggle and need for more.

[@Fabierien]

You know I never broke it down like that myself. I caught the drug references from the beginning but the music telling the story I missed to this moment. Very nice.

[@madcracker84]

@@Fabierien to be fair I read about it from someone else as well. I knew there was meaning but never put it together like that.

[@gregcarroll4053]

You nailed it.

[@mccoy1369]

It is nice to see that I'm not the only one that realized that. 👍🤘

[@stonerviking4079]

I didn't understand what this song was about growing up until one of my friends explained to me what "chop your breakfast on a mirror" meant

This song was 1 of many that helped me understand my own addiction

[@ThePriorityAlpha]

Such an incredibly deep song from Metallica.

[@srt8rocketship241]

Cliff walkin on that bass hard. The chemistry this lineup had was the best. The dedication to instrument mastery in rock and metal is a big part of successs.

[@remastered-00-pl]

Yet he made a few mistakes in his bassline, the biggest being the part after James Hetfield's guitar solo (the part "Master, where's the dreams that I've been after? (...)")

[@srt8rocketship241]

@@remastered-00-pl Well that should have been caught in the studio. I will say they were all really young at the time and feel Cliff would have only improved. It is plain to see his love for it. Megadeth fan here. Without mistakes we would all be...Perfect.

[@randyjennings6412]

Rock music is a lot more deep than people think. That song is about drug addiction. The drugs being the master and the addict being the puppet.

[@jubal238]

You'll like "Orion" on the same album.

Agreed Orion is a masterpiece

My absolute favorite instrumental ever made. The way they can take you on a ride without saying a single word.

[@JoL258]

I would recommend Fade to Black, For whom the Bell Tolls, or One if your looking for more Metallica songs. There are probably other songs by them you would like. Also, the black album has some great songs.

[@jeffphillips9588]

So glad you enjoyed that song. IMO one of the best songs ever.. welcome to metal and enjoy the journey!

[@terryberkshire5504]

I think you guys are ready for a live video. My suggestion is Creeping Death at Tushino Airfield, Moscow 1991. There were an ESTIMATED attendance (meaning they stopped counting) of 1.6 MILLLION. It was part of the Monsters of Rock festival which included AC/DC headlining and The Black Crowes and Pantera featured at the same festival. Initially there were 500,000 tickets sold, but so many people showed ip that they let everyone in regardless of whether they had tickets. The crowd is BREATHTAKING.

[@dizzle7558]

The transitions and time signature changes on this song are RIDICULOUS!!🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jlightning2178]

I still remember when I heard Master for the first time. A guy on my hockey team had the album, and i had a blank tape, we recorded it right there on his stereo. One of my all time favorite Albums

[@Toaster81]

Metallica has many great songs. For Whom The Bell Tolls, Unforgiven, Wherever I May Roam, Seek And Destroy. Megadeth has many great ones as well like Peace Sells, Symphony Of Destruction, & Angry Again. I would love to see you react to Pantera's Cemetary Gates or Children of Bodom Oops iI Did It Again cover

[@korybeavers6528]

[@JohnSmith-sw4tn]

Fade to black is one of my favorite songs. Very powerful, it has saved me quite a few times.

[@steveloot]

Metal music is for outsiders. Welcome to the club!

[@RonnieRockafella]

Metallica- The Unforgiven & Fade To Black are good picks i think you'd like and vibe too. Another great reaction as always👍

[@cobrakai9969]

Happy to see more people getting into and understanding metal music, when they otherwise thought it wasn't their cup of tea. There's some great stuff out there that can appeal to anyone. Metallica is the best.

[@kevinmurphy2286]

This song really shows how awesome Metallica really is. They were in their 20's when the did this song. Not only the idea to sing from the perspective of the drug all the while the music is telling the story of the addiction itself. The highs, the lows, the chase for more... it's a complete masterpiece. But most of all, this song highlighted the groups musical talents. The transitions within the song were performed flawlessly.

[@melaniewells9934]

It's about drug addiction the master is the drugs controlling the addict

[@PaintedTurtle001]

I love reaction vids...you don't STOP the video until the end! And i thank you for that. 👍🤘

Other MetallicA fans will argue with me, disagree with me but I DO NOT CARE! "💫 R I 💫 N"✨...IS THEE #1 BEST SONG OFF OF THIS ALBUM PERIOD!!! It is the greatest metal instrumental EVER written...hands down!

[@7BlueDodger]

Rock and Metal music can be beautiful when done right. 🔥

[@mccoy1369]

Many have already mentioned this, but the song addiction is the drug and the puppet being the person. I've been into Rock / metal for a long time. Metal started coming into my life around 17, and it was the way I released a lot of my pent-up aggression cuz I moved around a lot of the kid and with quite a bit for being the new poor kid. So metal was my release. I had the long hair and all, and I was quite head-banger. Then I cut it all off and join the Marines at 20. Thank you guys for the reaction videos, Metallica is actually my favorite band. Even through their bad years, I remained a fan. No one has taken their top spot yet.

[@RakuPL]

Next: Fade to Black

[@delphilungwyn5308]

Yall just heard a masterpiece 🎶✌

[@Pokerface-tr1ds]

Welcome to the Metal Family you 2! It feels good to see more people like you diving into this very misunderstood genre of music. So.. this is classic Metallica. The Album Master of Puppets came out in 1986 and it is considered to be one of the true pieces of musical art.

[@tintin9274]

I have always loved how it is written from the perspective of a drug ( The master) talking to the puppets ( drug addicts). Talking about how it controls you. It is killing you. Plus it will leave you dead. Some people don't tend to pick up on the message until words " needlework" crack and heroin and " chop your breakfast on a mirror" cocaine. Then its like "What the...! " As words hit harder. Beautifully written as an anti drug use song.

[@nickid43z58]

This song is about being addicted to heroin/cocaine. Once addicted, it's a "never ending maze" . Drugs rule your world. It's all about means and ways to getting and using more. I was once an addict in full blown addiction and this song represents what I went through. This song holds special meaning for me.

[@cyriousvynil2433]

Disposable Heroes is a must...a must!

[@StolichnayaCzara]

That song was written in the 80's. And for a great deal of people that partied back then, the drug of choice was cocaine. "Cut your breakfast on a mirror". I was around when all that was going on and I watched a few people get strung out on that stuff and it nearly destroyed them. I'm not going to lie... I did my share of it back in the day. But I was always aware of the dangers. Guess that's why I never got strung out and in a bad way. You can learn through other peoples mistakes whether people want to believe it or not.

[@fitzeefreshvids1888]

Addiction wow a true masterpiece

[@srt8rocketship241]

Their friends over in Megadeth are metal masters also.

[@melvinhowell2012]

Metal can be a hard genre to get into because of the speed and it can be difficult to understand what they are singing about, but as you listen to it it will slow down to your ear and you can understand the lyrics and hear all the intricacies of the instruments. This particular song is about drug addiction and how it takes control of you, in other words controlling you like a puppet master making your life all about looking for that next high.

[@ll7868]

This is one of my favourite songs to play drums to. Seek & Destroy was the first Metallica song I learned.

Reading the lyrics and passed right on by the "chop your breakfast on a mirror" line without second glance. That's when most other reactions figure it out. Not much depth in the understanding the music part, just smiling and bopping your head. They did do a good job with ONE though.

[@ma1nick]

In 2016, this album was added to The Library of Congress for being “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant”. Not bad for an album written and performed by 20 something year old kids.

And the instrumental in the middle of the song represents the slow beginning where a drug user is content but it builds up until a user needs its fix... Might need to re-listen to this song with that little tidbit of information.

[@briburwhyudie]

And now that I watched the complete video of your reaction, please keep in mind that all metal music has a hard message. Make sure you search and read the lyrics .It would be beneficial to any more metal reactions you may do.
