Metallica Are Metal ROYALTY | Metallica - Master Of Puppets | Reaction

[@daletolmich6459]

Remember... This band did NOT release a video until 'One' was released off their 4th album. We didn't have all these media platforms back then ... It was video(MTV), radio(which, believe it or not, NEVER EVER EVER EVER played Metallica) and word of mouth. These dudes fought in the trenches ... Touring and converting the masses. That's why they didn't break big.... Bigger... Before. Back then you earned your fanbase or sold your soul to the industry. They took the road less traveled... And paved the way for the many. 🤘... I suggest "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" from this same album.

[@coktoe4487]

Iron Maiden did just that for 48 years until now. Metallica kinda sold out in 1991 and on.

The movie Old School had this song MOP when they were grabbing their pledges for a fraternity. It was hilarious 😂 !! Metallica is in their own lane! I've been a fan since 81' im 2 yrs younger than the boys, and I was 21 when Master of Puppets dropped!! It was crazy! No gimmicks or wild clothing and crap just pure Metal, thrash and lyrics that were insane! My favorite band!♥️ Been lucky to see them many times throughout 80's to present! Better live!! 🎼🤘🎸🔥🔥

Cliff Burton on bass!! Album hits the stratosphere 🐐

[@roadkill7314]

IMHO this is their greatest song. Truly a piece of art.

[@timprice5747]

Others have mentioned it, but the structure of the song was imitating the cycle of drug addiction. It starts out fast and frantic...the need for a fix, then it slows and mellows as the drug takes effect. It doesn't last long, and then the song gets even more frantic as the need for drugs becomes even stronger. Iron Maiden was one of the early pioneers of metal. Metallica took that and made it more aggressive.

[@garydpsu]

The structure of the song is also intentionally related to the drug. The beginning faster pace is meant to represent feining searchin thinkin incessantly about getting high. The immaculate slow 2nd part solo is THE high and the feeling the user gets. and the end picks up again to represent the come down/regret gotta do it all over again constant.

[@MamawT65]

It’s all about Drugs! They are the Master! Love the reaction

[@randycomerford2038]

I really liked your reaction man, its so cool to see someone who dont know this song, hearing it for the first time. Read the lyics and you will understand the song and what its about. They are talking about how drugs control your life and become your master, and you will do whatever it takes to get more and more to get high. Plus its also saying that even though you maybe enjoying at first, and it might be fun, but eventually its actually laughing at you, cause its killing you at the same timesame time.

[@JuanKGM]

Hey, what's up? First, thank you very much for the reaction, it was great. I recommend you do a reaction to *Fade to black* (My favorite Metallica song), it's a softer song, but I know you'll love it. I would also recommend *Enter Sandman* and *Sad but true*. I think you'd like it because of the groove it has. In relation to the differences with Iron Maiden, Maiden is a band that emerged first and is part of the New wave of British heavy metal, which, in fact, influenced Metallica. Maiden lyrically deals with more historical, existential and even poetic themes. Metallica has lyrics more focused on personal struggles, the war is also recurring and often criticizes society. Musically, Iron Maiden focuses much more on the melodic, Bruce's singing is more operatic, so to speak, and in general, the guitars are less distorted and the galloping bass is more constant. It is also much more characteristic of Maiden to have "dueling" guitars in the solos. Metallica is more direct, James' voice is more raspy (especially at the beginning), and since the 90s it's more groovy. The solos are generally (with some exceptions) done by Kirk and the drums are dominated by double bass. Anyway, I hope I've been helpful. Greetings from Colombia.

[@Frostrazor]

hilarious - after posting my own comment to compare the two bands, I see that you and I actually said nearly everything exactly the same using the same verbiage. Not intended at all. I'm guess that means we're both very wrong or both know what we're talking about.

[@terrymills810]

IMHO there isnt a bad song on Master of Puppets so I would like you to react to the whole album. My little borther was listened to their first two albums and i was ok sounds good than I heard Master and it is one of my fav albums of all time.

[@snakeinthegrass7443]

Gotta see them live, bro. 1991 Moscow. 1.6 million people in attendance!! Everybody does Enter Sandman but another fire song from that show is called Creeping Death. One of my many favs from them is called All Nightmare Long. They just released another album about a month or 2 ago and from what I've heard so far...these guys are rocking harder as they get older. They have to be close to 60 years old now and are still kicking ass. Dont let another 2 years go by, my friend before you get back to them. ✌🏼❤

[@MunkeeFWRrng]

The performance there and in Seattle ‘89 are the zenith of Metallica performances. Seriously hope he reacts to them because nothing shows off their power like those performances.

[@Frostrazor]

You asked "why did it take till their third album to get super popular?' The same reason you never heard of any of the other bands mentioned (Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer). These bands didn't have radio play. There was no internet or streaming music. You either heard what was on the internet, or you got exposed to them by your cousin or older brother. Metal does not play well on radio - because most people tune in to hear that standard "corporate rock" sound - and that's what keeps the money coming in from the station's sponsors. Some were lucky enough to live in areas that had underground stations that played stuff never heard on other stations. Thats the only way these bands got airplay. Metallica went on a HUGE tour in 87 called the Monsters of Rock - this was on the heels of Master of Puppets album. They opened for Scorpions and Van Halen (the headliner). That tour is greatly responsible for thrusting them into the headlights for many people where went to this show for long term popular bands like Scorps and VH, and finally heard Metallica for the first time. I first heard them in 87 - i was at the community teen center on the military base I grew up on - the school's proverbial drop-out loser stoner dude put the Puppets cassette on the music sound system and the first song that came on was Sanitarium from that album. I was instantly hooked. I had never heard or listened to metal before that. I became a metal head overnight! Begged my mom for that album for Christmas. I got it, and the next year got And Justice For All. I've since seen them live over 30 times in my life.

[@Frostrazor]

just clearing up a mistype - I said " You either heard what was on the internet" I mean "You either heard what was on the radio..."

[@sarahpenisten597]

Beauty in storytelling. So many levels of deep. All their songs are. ORION is a fave instrumental. The musical interlude in this song is representative of the High, as it goes up and comes crashing down. They are definitely fun to grow with.

[@thomasmalmin6194]

One of the big reasons why Heavy/Thrash Metal didn't get airplay back then was, not only were the early-mid 80's owned by commercially-friendly, "MTV ready" New Wave and Europop bands, but also, thanks in part to certain album imagery, Heavy Metal was considered "demonic" music, and was widely vilified in the press and other mediums. This "satanic panic" led by moral majority crusaders like Tipper Gore made it hard, if not impossible, for these bands to break through into the mainstream. It wasn't until the late 80's that this started to change.

[@coreyrees840]

Old school during the rush scene when they drive around in the black truck kidnapping all the pledges. Only movie/tv spot I can pick from memory where this was used.

[@LaptopLarry330]

Iron Maiden is a British Heavy Metal band that got its start in the late-1970s, and were contemporaries with Def Leppard and Motörhead. Iron Maiden has been described as a “thinking man’s” Heavy Metal band, because of the various subjects and viewpoints displayed in their songwriting. They also had to play fast, to compete in the UK with the Punk Rock music scene there at the time. Metallica incorporated Classical music influences into their arrangements of their songs and instrumentals, which made them unique in Heavy Metal music. Bassist Cliff Burton had taken a college course in Classical Music Theory and Composition, and he made it an emphasis to incorporate what he learned into the band’s songwriting process. Cliff Burton was killed in a tour bus accident in Sweden in September, 1986, when the bus hit an icy patch on the road, slid sideways, and flipped onto its side. Burton was ejected from a top bunk bed along the side window, then the bus landed on top of him. Cliff Burton was 24 years old.

[@wesbeuning1733]

A Reason why they weren't broadly accepted until the fourth album is that metal had huge amount of people pushing back against the genre even existing. You can hear all the older stuff on any classic rock station now, but hardly any radio would even touch it until like the 90s.

[@stephenjernigan1057]

Well said. I remember staying up late as a teenager to listen to headbangers ball on MTV to listen to the genre.

Down picking only refers to the rhythm guitar, not the lead solos. James down picks rhythm guitar while he’s also singing lead vocals.

In order to save your neck, Headbanging is generally: chin down on the snare hits, and includes your shoulders and upper back. 👍🏽💪🏽😁

[@R777-RLM]

Great reaction and honesty. Yes, do more Metallica please. I think the song is talking about drugs, with a subtext of anything or anyone who rules unjustly. I see Iron Maiden as more theatrical and less raw. Metallica songs you may like: "Disposable Heroes," "The Four Horsemen," "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)," and an instrumental called "Orion."

This whole album is fire. I suggest you listen to it from start to finish

[@marciaann660]

They wouldn't put metal music on radio back in the day. All their music was on cassette. Once CDs came out they BLEW UP

[@m.ericwatson968]

It was called headbanging, metal heads in the '80's called ourselves headbangers, Metallica had a motto: "Bang that head that doesn't bang!" It's a great album, arguably their very best, a true masterpiece and pinnacle for the band; James is the king of rhythm guitar downpicking, it's a tricky technique to play fast for an entire song, gives distorted guitar chords that "chunky" feel and tone, that and palm-muting at the bridge, Metallica championed that metal tone

[@SdMbL1]

Down picking on a guitar is used a lot in metal. James Hetfield is a master of it. When you upstroke after a down stroke it can have a different tone on the string or strings you are playing. Down picking consistently gives you the same tone every time if done correctly and can make your playing a lot faster and more consistent strokes.

[@carlgibson285]

You understood downpicking perfectly. It's a difficult technique to perfect, but James Hetfield is a master at it (what makes it even more impressive is that he's singing at the same time). Tbh when Metallica are playing live, they rely more on James than they do on Lars (the drummer) when it comes to keeping the beat - James is like a human metronome. If you want peak Metallica when it comes to composition, try anything off of Master Of Puppets or And Justice For All. Ride The Lightning is also a great album, but the compositions are less complex than the other two albums I mentioned.

[@Jamesfoster48]

I just saw a clip with my fellow James describing his down-pick only technique is because he, and I quote ‘Plays the guitar like he’s playing the drums. He smashes the strings with the pick like when he’s holding a drumstick

The song called "Battery" on this same album is a perfect example of thrash metal and will blow your mind. "Master of Puppets" is a masterpiece but doesn't really show what thrash means

Wait till you get into the Black Album from Metallica. Talk about different. Enter Sandman, Nothing Else Matters and the first of 3 parts to Unforgiven.

[@Frostrazor]

Iron Maiden and Metallica are under the same tree of "metal". They both had their heyday in the 80s. Both happen to be my two favorite bands all time. The similarity kinda ends there. Metallica is "thrash" metal. Where as Iron Maiden is more melodic metal that came out of the "british metal" movement in the late 70s early 80s. All metal relies on great lyrics and composition. Maiden relies on it's driving/galloping bassline and overlays duelling guitar melodies over it. Metallica relies on chugging bass and rhythm guitars and intersperses heavy riffs over top it. Maiden has a operatic style of singing with long drawn out notes Metallica uses it's harsh shouting gutter metal growl to deliver gut punches, and drummer Lars uses a double bass (Maiden does not) to give extra depth and punch. There are other bands out there that are similar to each - but you wouldn't mistake them for being similar to the other as the two bands have stark contrasts.

[@nadiaramirezfilm]

As a Metallica fan, the lyrics of this song are what make it such a masterpiece. There are 3 parts to this song the beginning where the drugs are convincing the man to take more drugs as if that is all he needs. As if drugs would solve all his issues. The man knows he's already not doing well but trusts the drug's false promises. In the middle of the song, the slow part is the high that the drug is giving the man. This leads to the end of the slow part showing the man coming out of the high leading to the crash afterwards. While coming out of the high into the crash the man is begging for more drugs as that is all he knows how to do at this point and asks the drugs to "fix me" and the drug claims its victory on the man with laughter. The man realizes that the Drugs lied to him and that it's really just taking away his dreams, and future. The last part is where the man is now too far into his addiction and the Drugs, his Master, is controlling his entire life like a Puppet Master. At this point the man is so far in that his life has become a living hell and he's now doing drugs for breakfast and the drugs now occupy and rule over his life. It's just a story of personified Drugs talking to man, and the progression of man's addiction.

[@timbaker6540]

Great Album My favorite by these guys

[@user-gx3cf2ot2q]

Metallica has a huge catalog. Imo the albums you'll definitely want to react to some of the songs: Kill em all (1983) Ride the lighting (1984) Master of puppets (1986) And justice for all (1988) Metallica (1991) And for stuff from more current albums: Death magnetic (2008) Hardwired to self destruct (2016) And the latest album: 72 seasons (2023) Id skip load/reload & st anger unless you want to hear them temporarily take their sound in a different direction

[@hah5382]

Ok so I'm 55 years old and have been a metalhead since 4rth grade 1977. First rock, then acid rock. Then metal. Then heavy metal. Then speed metal. That brings us roughly to 1986 and metalica also anthrax....praise be the two. Lmao! So you got iron maiden that introduced all us rebellious male teens and our girlfriends to the new sound of metal. My definition: metal is a faster pace hard rock, then Steve Harris decided to play bass guitar. With eight fingers at a time! Producing heavy metal. Heavy metal songs are songs about war, death, natural disasters, drugs, fights, accidents, and all negative aspects of human life. Not unicorn tears, pretty girls, and rainbows(except Dio and let's not fool around and just say dio was his own genre). So I listened to metal before bouts, football games,soccer, bmx-ing, camping, and all other lizard mantality events...concerts of course.so you got maiden metal with tons of treble and then speed metal(metalica, fasterpussycat, anthrax)playing maiden style but with little treble much more bass.... in singing, drums, bass and electric guitars and sped up.just a touch.

[@mafrank1natural]

Iron Maiden are about 10 years older and British. Musically the difference would be a few things: 1) Steve Harris who is the creator of Iron Maiden, the bass player, and who writes most the music tends to have a very strong triple note gallop sound from the bass you can hear throughout many songs, but at the same time very clean. 2. The two guitarists with Dave Murray and Adrian Smith tend to harmonize a lot of pretty sounds that are brighter and again very clean technically. 3. musically and lyrically they use a lot of old books and movies whether it be storytelling, theatrical or even based on history from war. with all this put together you have the amazing vocals and operatic sounds of Bruce Dickinson who tends to hold the notes very long. Metallica on the other hand looked for a more aggressive approach with a lot of music coming from the heart of the singer and rhythm guitarist James hetfield along with the drummer Lars Ulrich. Most the music from Metallica tends to be a lot about life and death, War, Drugs, Suicide, some "Religious" based history and psychologically therapeutic songs based on adversity or just struggling within.

[@justinskullhead]

Everyone always said they were satanic music, but once I listened, i was like what??? My personal favorites are (and ones you should react to) One, Nothing Else Matters, Unforgiven, Wherever I May Roam, and this one. My favorite is their black album. They are straight genius in their lyrics and instrument playing. Love the reaction ❤

[@Sp00kyM00kie]

This album is amazing. My no. 1. You should check out the whole album as well as "...And Justice For All" and "Ride the Lightning" albums for some of their best compositional work. Some of their later stuff is slower, less intricate, and more melodic but still heavy and fairly solid for the most part. They have been working their way almost full circle now with "Death Magnetic" and their latest offering "72 Seasons". I can pretty easily listen to any of these albums start to finish and enjoy every song. Looking forward to watching your journey. 🤟

[@TheDivayenta]

James Hetfield sounds a bit like Ozzie here. He’s a better singer tho. Check out Nothing Else Matters- it’s beautiful. This is about drug addiction. The slow part in the middle is the drug high before the comedown. The down picking you hear are those 32nd notes driving the beat.

[@hariszllanoga8140]

Try next metallica. Fade to black

[@cdecent]

Your reactions are great. Please do Metallica's "Ride The Lightning" off the album Ride The Lightning. Or "Fade to Black" off the same record. Take care. What separates them from Maiden is that each band draws from a similar well, but they let themselves be themselves. That's why the music is great. Iron Maiden has lots of melody in their riffs and singing, and so does Metallica. Metallica were definitely influenced by Maiden, but instinctively carved out their own sound.

Now, master of puppets to me was the only heavy metal or speedmetal anthem. I was a stoner, hood, the smoking, leather jacket, keg buying(parties), weed selling, womanizing, punk, that every mother and father didn't want to see there kidd around. My interpretation real fast is that it's a song sung from the drugs point of view, until just after the soft melodic part(midway)where briefly the user yells back at the master, but of course winds up ruled again by the master. So I always considered the melodic middle as the time the user tryst to kick the dope but then as usual finds himself using again. Obeying his master. Calling his name is the addiction wanting the drug. It really does do that to.....call for it. Until it gets it. Very horrible. Be well always and keep it up. No more "I'm stupid" please. Or I'll have the sandman creep into your night and force you to sleep with one eye open.

Metallica‘s first five albums are their best, the two prior to this one were very good as well, and to me come close to matching this album. Everything after the and Justice for all album, though is a downgrade from these first five albums. Back in the early 80s it was not as easy for bands to get their music out, he really had to have it played on the radio, and of course the most popular bands we’re getting that sewed new bands, and especially bands of a new type like Metallica we’re not very well known. Most of us who got into them in the early 80s simply found their albums at the record store, or saw a T-shirt or a poster something that made us interested.
