Metallica HATER listens to Master of Puppets (FIRST TIME REACTION)

[@SteveCurie]

Without Metallica most of the bands you named probably wouldn't have existed

[@dizzle7558]

No probably..You stated FACTS🤘

This is 100% true

[@Marcio_Tchaka]

Agree

[@Amazongrassmonster]

I appreciate you gave this a chance and that you dissected and actually enjoyed a lot of it. Makes me want to do this with some of the music that I've dismissed over the years. The irony in these comments is that a lot of people aren't giving you a chance!

[@ismvic70]

Metallica is your favorite band’s favorite band

[@ggcade8896]

People *used* to feel that way until Metallica started releasing a bunch of crappy albums and acting like arrogant pricks. They are still popular and loved…but not as much as before.

[@LastGen-Richtofen_69420]

I have a feeling your gonna like st anger

[@DragonDyce]

the sound and feeling of early metallica music is just so good

[@TheEternalWayfarer]

14:20 Master of Puppets is actually about drug addiction and specifically addiction to cocaine and heroin. The lyrics are pretty explicit, I mean... "Veins that pump with fear", "Taste me, you will see / More is all you need / Dedicated to / How I'm killing you", "Needlework the way", "Chop your breakfast on a mirror", "I will occupy / I will help you die / I will run through you / Now I rule you too". The song is written from the perspective of the drug itself, being the eponymous Master of Puppets "pulling the strings" of the addicted. 18:50 The Thing That Should Not be is the title of a novella by H. P. Lovecraft which inspired the song.

[@opticFPV]

Lots of comments about "not expecting this and that" from Metallica, you just haven't heard enough Metallica man lol. This album is exactly what I expect from Metallica

I appreciate you trying to broaden your horizons. Went through a similar phase a while ago. I don't think I wanted to straight up inherently dislike music anymore. I'd have to give things a try before I made decision. "Battery" actually started my metal Renaissance. Had a bit of a falling out with the metal I was listening to, and "Battery" threw me back in. Had a great time since. You mentioned you like when they get technical. Cant wait until you get to ...And Justice For All.

[@joelluis4934]

How can you be a metal head and not like instrumentals, solo’s or melodies. Not a true metal head. Also the concept of the album is ‘control’. Controlled by drugs, politics, war

He gives off the modern metalhead vibe who's obsessed with 9 string guitars being indistinguishable from the bass, breakdowns, 012 riffs, vocals from the satan himself. Not listening to metallica and going along with what others say, looking down on them at every chance seems weak to me. Listen and make up your own mind, brother. At least he's trying in these videos. But I can still taste the salt from here

28:11 That's because that whole entire first verse you talked the ENTIRE TIME. Saying how you were going to start listening, while simultaneously failing to listen 😂

[@DemiseUnseen]

I'm proud of you for sitting through the entire album. It seems you have accumulated some deep pre-conceptions of Metallica over the years. This album can grow on you, to the point where some time later you find yourself saying: "... Man, how did I not get how good this is at first..." Thanks for sharing your reaction! You are like a unicorn in the heavy music realm, it’s fascinating.

[@allisall1309]

The funny thing is the band you like were influenced by Metallica. You must haven't read any literature that any kind or type of metal bands started their music journey because of Metallica.

[@Crzserbianguy]

This album was interred into the national archives as one of the most influential albums of all time.

[@anthonyhelton257]

Master of Puppets is about addiction and how it control's you. The crosses an early grave. You need to pay attention to the lyrics along with the instruments, every song tells a different story. Maybe then you would appreciate their music more.

[@even0110]

With how much you seem to like the chugging guitars, I'd bet you'd like And Justice For All the most.

[@WoldimirTsakiosvky]

[@susanconstable2113]

Keep in mind that for many of us Metallica fans the lyrics are just as important as the music. James writes some seriously deep lyrics that mean a lot to many of us.

[@SouthrnTrendKill]

Oh God, the edgy metal snob. Yes, bruh, you need change. You say Metallica is repetitive, yet you call for Deftones... probably the most repetitive band in human history.

no they don't suck. that is the short answer. How can anyone not love this? It boggles the mind.

[@Harvdog1371]

Pretty good? 😂😂😂 This the perfect metal album. This is an absolute masterpiece

[@WaltTheKingGamer]

It’s funny how he says that James hetfields voice is better in master of puppets and ride the lightning but the funny thing is that James actually never had singing lessons until the black album because he suffered a voice injury while recording

[@Britton_Thompson]

That's always been the legend, sure.... but I don't know if I believe it. I have a hard time believing he wasn't made to change a thing or two for the first major tour

[@BucsFanO22]

Because most people aren't idiots who watch 2 minutes of a video and get mad.

[@martinwhite3559]

Master of Puppets song is about drugs. It is supposed to sound chaotic at times. The drug is the master. The melodic part is the high you get from the drug and the chaotic parts are the drug messing with you. This album came out in 1986 not 1989. Kill Em All is the most Thrash sounding in IMO.

I dipped my head at St. Anger, but Death Magnetic and Hard Wired connected me to the old days. Metal up your ass!! Glad he's listening either way, Metallica, Johnny Cash, Jimmy Buffet, JSB.. they all speak to me in one way or another!!

[@cjonesufc]

The fact that James plays their rhythms (and some leads) while singing is one of the big reasons why they’re held in such high regard. And his downstroke technique is a big reason why he’s known as Papa Het. I remember when this came out. Nobody had ever heard anything like it.

[@user-yk4gd1fl4z]

No. That’s why he is known as “Papa Het”. But whatever the reason is , they need or junk it, that’d shit is gay AF. James even puts it on his jacket ! They need to stop that shit.

[@FreeMTrider]

Generational music tastes kind of fuck up everything. The record companies control all of that shit. Yes, they even controlled Korn, Deftones, all of that shit. They know the limits of albums sales and the market saturation. Only the very top bands can call their own shots and make albums when they want and how they want. Metallica did this. They can do whatever the hell they want. But the sad thing is, people get sucked into a genre and reject....or try to reject anything before it. Just like the Nu Metal fans did to metal before it. But it just didn't work. Bands like Metallica came from the underground and stayed there for years....earning it in the clubs and word of mouth, not some video. That's been lost in music. Maybe it's coming back? Because there are no real record companies promoting music like it was. The reason why us very old Metallica fans, fans from the club days, still love them is because they were just like us......from the lower class, no money, into skateboards, never cared what the fashion trend was and they hit it hard. We could relate. I don't know your background, but you just can't relate to the old days if you weren't part of it or grew up with nothing. They did it from the ground up living in a fucking van. We had to sneak into clubs for fucks sake.

You have been told so much to not like Metallica, it’s almost funny. Besides the fact that everyone you listen to now, sat in their bedrooms learning these songs. You have become as cliche as the Lars can’t play drums memes.

I’ve listened to many bands after getting into metal a few years ago, it went from random country music, to classic rock, to hard rock, and then to metallica and then into other metal groups. Setting everything aside, metallica is the only band where the first 5 albums in a row I loved every song on every album. They will always be my favorite band I think.

James didn’t develop the vocal quirks that you find annoying until he was trained to do them during the recording sessions of the black album. Bob Rock, who produced the black album, told James that he wanted to hear more “yeah’s”, and that thing wherein he started adding an extra syllable to the end of each word, I.e., ‘Dp my dirty work, scapegoat; do my deeds, for you’re the one who’s shamed-AH.’

One major thing that you havent picked up on in your listen throughs is Cliff Burton's bass work.

[@Keizer_Soze]

The thing that should not be...descent into madness. Chaotic madness. Based on HP Lovecraft's writing. Disposable Heroes...back to the front...sending the soldiers to their death...also, the riffs are representative of machine guns ("barking of machine gun fire"). Vietnam. Album was released in '86.

[@Lord_Raptor]

During Sanitarium, you were talking about that specific chord. It was a double stop. Just to help you out and those who don't know, a single note is called.. well a single note...2 notes played at the same time is called a double stop...and anything that's 3 or more notes played at the same time is a chord. A power chord is when you play the chord's root (tonic) note, the root's octave and the root's 5th...which would be the 5th note played within the root's scale. Which is why power chords are always notated with a 5. G5, B5, A5, D5, etc.... So, a G power chords notes would be G-D-G...G root...D fifth note in the scale...G the octave. I hope that all makes sense. Haha.

[@riphopfer5816]
