Just do the whole Master of puppets album! You won't be dissapointed.
THIS
AGREED!!!!!!
TOTALLY!!!!
Yes you guys MUST do the album, song by song of the ones you haven't done yet.
I 1,000% back this up
great way to start an album...battery is definitely a banger, if you haven't done it yet, Damage Inc.. off of this same album is also super spicy
Damage inc is my nr 1 Metallica song. That song started a whole life of neck pain issues for me. Worth it tho, lol :-D
@@patrizia3170 💯💯 Master of Puppets album was a revelation for me as a youth, and Damage Inc was just...well you know exactly what I mean, it was THE song, at least in my opinion
The song is about Battery Street where they cut their teeth. So, it's about the scene, the bands they came up with, and the fans.
Wrong! As a Bay Area resident and friend of Kirks..it’s about the crowd, the fans, the family. We are the battery suppling the power to the band.
@@bayareathrasher666 James wrote the lyrics. And James has said the idea came from their days playing at the Old Waldorf located at 444 Battery Street in downtown San Francsico. . And that the song is about the scene, the bands, the fans... which you just said. So, how am I wrong?
Both of you are correct just worded differently.
@@GeekFurious Because if he didn't have the belief this song is about him he would cry I think.
A battery is also what you call a grouping of artillery or missle launchers, and what you would call it if they all shot at the same place. I always thought that was the analogy they were using, what with all the military metaphors on this album
This album is a masterpiece!
All the songs are top notch.
You guys should do the whole album, song by song.
If not, my suggestion is "disposable heroes". 🤘🏽
They did Disposable Heroes for this year's Memorial Day
@@mikethemotormouth Oh yeah, that's true! Thanks man!
Disposable Heroes is my no1 song
This and garage days is my favorite then kill em all
It's about a heavy metal club that used to be in San Francisco, where they're from
This is about Battery Street where they got their start in San Francisco.
I'm jealous of you guys, I wish I could hear this album for the first time again !
🤣🤣🤣
I was 7 in 1986 when I heard it. I know the feeling.
@@DaveThomson I discovered Metallica when Justice came out in 89? and went through the back catalogue. I was 15. 🤘😎🤘
This album is nasty. And the drumming is great in my opinion. Brilliant reaction guys
Hetfield probably has the best voice for metal period. You can understand him. It's full of aggression and anger and even tho he doesn't have the best singing voice, his iteration of clean vocals in their music again, fits perfectly.
I was 16 when Masters of Puppets album came out and me and a friend was sitting in class during detention and he pulled out this cassette and said he got their new album. Slapped it in the Walkman,put on the headphones and holyshit we were blown away. Battery was the first song on it. I was 13 when I heard Metallicas Kill em all album and was hooked but damn masters was like the road to pure raw aggressive thrash metal we've ever heard. Need to do The Thing That Should Not Be on this same album its definitely a head banger of a tune 🤘😎🤘
Lol! I was 13 too and hooked on them after hearing it too!
My first concert was Metallica in the summer of 1986, tail end of the Puppets tour. Been to over a dozen Metallica concerts since Life long fan.
BIRTH
SCHOOL
METALLICA
DEATH
\m/💀\m/
@@jeremymiller7932 I too been to numerous Metallica concerts. Last I went to was from their Black album when they tour for that. I'm still a fan but not so much on their stuff after Fuel.... I'm old skool Metallica when they were at their best 🤘😎🤘
I think thrash and power metal were born around the same time, early 80s. Both genres were heavily influenced by the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, thrash also added elements of punk.
Power metal is more thrashy for most bands in the US, but in Europe, it's more affiliate to speed metal, and melodic or even symphonic metal. For exemple Iced Earth and and Nevermore are from the US and have more thrash roots even if it's more melodic and polished, and in Europe you have bands like Hammerfall or Helloween who have more melodic solos , hi pitched dramatic singing or more keyboards parts... but these are just exemple, sometimes the line is more blurry. keep it on guys, i love your channel, and i'm sorry for damn broken english, i do the best i can. Peace!
But could you say power metal was born from thrash
@@Hollywood6IX no, power metal comes from classic heavy metal like Maiden, Priest or Dio and speed metal plus a Medieval-epic approach. Thrash and Power movements started almost at the same time, so the answer is no, they have similar roots hence the similarities.
Iced Earth is Cold 🤣
Power Metal was born in 1984 in my city - Hamburg, Germany by my 2nd favourite frontman, after James - KAI HANSEN on his Helloween EP - Walls Of Jericho. He is the grandfather of power metal.
But 'Tallica used the term Power Metal in 1982 before there was a term for trash.
@@Hollywood6IX Yes and no. Thrash was born a lot more from Black Metal, not Power Metal, but Thrash definitely got a lot of influences from Power metal. Examples of Black Metal include King Diamond, Mercyful Fate, Bathory, and Hell hammer. They're more melodic than Power Metal. Examples of Power metal would be Dio, Black Sabbath, Sabaton, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Blind Guardian, etc. Trash is faster, closer to Speed metal in a way, while being melodic in a similar way to Black metal. There are so many subgenres of metal that it'll make your head spin, honestly.
I saw Metallica live in 1998 and when they played this song, every single soul was shouting ‘Battery’ at the top of their lungs, including me! Epic. I love this song
Back in 1987, they dropped an EP of covers called Garage Days. Pay particular attention to their version of Misfits' "Last Caress/Green Hell".
Dude my favorite track off of garage
@@hankmullins3090 How about "Die, Die My Darling" off the Garage, Inc album?
@@justinshook5332 yup that one to actually love the whole album
Have to have been the fastest metal song at that time... Still is fast ASF an brings out 13yr in me ...🇦🇺🤘💪
This album is fire, my favorite track is Disposable Heroes:)
Definitely my favorite Metallica track from any album
My fave song to for over 30 yrs. Now
This whole album is epic. Battery is also what you call the drums in a marching band.
The call of ktulu it's an instrumental from their 2nd album. Excellent song. Mainly written by Dave Mustaine (Megadeth) and Cliff Button RIP
Yeah, that's a great instrumental.
One of my fave Metallica songs off Puppets 🤘
This album is a staple.
This album is being preserved in Congressional Library for a reason. Its pure gold
True MetallicA fan here, but I like a lot of different types of music. The song you're thinking of was by a post grunge guy named Shawn Mullins in the late 90s. It was called "Lullaby"
What song from other band did jason played on bass solos during the black album tour?
Ty
Shawn Mullins sang that ‘rockabye’ song… he was kind of a one hit wonder I think
Master of Puppets (title song)
Kirk Hammit is a great guitarist, he's playing classic guitar and perfectly blends it into the heavy riffs!!
Such a good album!! I remember listening to this in high school amongst their other albums..great reaction you guys!💜
Cliff was still alive for this album that's why it's so dope.
Friggin love your channel fellas 👏
The dude with the back hat. His face is priceless on stamp 8:30 . I wish I could go back and listen to this song for the first time again.
People who hate on Lars are the “well actually…” people at parties. Dont listen to those people.
Fr i hate those type of people. Like stfu and let me rock out 🤘🏽
Great reaction guys! I highly recommend for both of you to react to the live version of Battery in Seattle (1989) as it is for sure one of the most iconic live performances in their whole history (also they are in their prime) of existence.
Duuuuuuudes....you guys should've reacted to the live Seattle version.....
Either way...good thing you got the lyrics on here lml
OuuuuuYeeeeeaaaahhh
This was track 1 on the album. Talk about getting hit over the head with a sledgehammer! Great reaction; keep up the good work.
Seeing their faces get melted from kirk’s level 10 solo is everything.
The street they played and got their start and original fan base. Moshing, getting out your aggressions, falling into the Metallica rabbit hole. “Can not kill the family” - you can’t kill Metallica and their fans! Welcome to be sucked in and welcomed. Battery- charged and energized- they fed off us and we feed off them and the street they played on. Spectacular song.
Battery is the connection between band and fans...esp at live shows.."they create the battery"
Seen them in Columbia SC 88/89 as a teenager and 2018 in Philadelphia. I'm part of the Family!
Enter Sandman was my real first introduction to Metallica. I loved it then as the years pass I really never wanted to hear that song. They do have more than Enter Sandman. But it’s slowly growing on me again. Love you guys!! Peace from Columbus!!!!
Battery is energy. The family is also the fans. The fans feed off of the energy of Metallica and give it back like one big battery.
Battery = rebellion
Greatest album opener ever and forever, no cap.
9:36 lars was an absolute beast on the first 4 albums
no doubt about that!
I have strong memories of this song... see back in the day I was in a band, a Rock Band, on the XBox 360... 7 Thumbs Up... as our bassist lost his thumb in a bike chain cleaning accident. We got to this song... nobody could play it apart from me. I was on drums, Eck on lead, couldn't get anyone to keep up with bass, nobody else could keep up on drums, so we were stuck. I guess all the major metal bands go through this - I looked at my brothers with beer saturated eyes, almost in tears, pleading with them please - either get good, or lets just have another bong and stick on some Rob-the-president instead :D
Just do the whole damn album boys it’s Metallica Monday!
EDIT: Forgot to mention you boys need to hear Metallica’s cover of Diamondheads “Am I Evil” it’s in my top 3 favorite songs from them.
@John Tanner Sadly it might be blocked but screw it do it anyways lol.
Nice reaction. Let Battery live in me. Great line. All about remembering the first clubs they played in. Most of us remember that first club we went to. Now remember Headbanger from Babymetal was about going to your first concert and remembering it forever. That's just another nod to Metallica. By remembering, it lives on. It's cool when bands can give nods to one another. Fun times ahead with more Metallica.
as a kid i would play this on repeat while playing ff3/6. it was epic, and now some dungeons remind me of some songs, and vice versa.
I think this is the first Metallica song I ever heard. My cousin gave my brother the Master of Puppets cassette tape and...the rest is history.
YAAS! More old skool Metallica!! Yes, y'all would 💜 this whole album! A staple for sure, my fave Metallica album!
Much like Blackened (my #1), Damage Inc, and Dyers Eve, songs like this are among my all-time favourite thrash/speed metal songs. It's all about that aggressive double time drum beat.
What's the song about? Here you go. From Metallica Wiki/Fandom
"The theme of the song revolves around the San Francisco thrash scene of the 1980s. The most prominent club played by Metallica was the Old Waldorf located at 444 Battery Street in downtown San Fran. The tone of the song is one of familial ties and the positive release of energy through the common interest of metal. The lyric "Cannot kill the family, Battery is found in me" is a statement that while society at large doesn't understand the scene, those within it (i.e. "the family") will fiercely defend it as a show of solidarity against the glam scene that was popular in the Los Angeles area."
I was floored the first time that Battery hit my eardrums.
The live version from Seattle '89 melted my face clean off 🤘
Metallica r legends boys, love the energy, great reaction. Seen em live twice and they r monsters 🤘🤘
The song is actually about the thrash club scene in San Francisco that "Metallica" was a part of. Specifically, a club called "The Old Waldorf" located at 444 Battery St. in downtown San Francisco. 😃
my fav metallica song and its not even close
That NOFX shirt is doooope!

Fellas, anything off of the first 4 albums is legendary, epic, classic, the best Metallica, love seeing your reactions to hearing them for the first time
Oh yes, greatest song ever! I enjoy other hearing it for the first time, the intro still gives me chills everytime.
About the quote of Lars killing it, I agree. But on top of that he's the engine driving Metallica forward from the day one.
And the thing all the haters don't realize, there's a reason why he has credits on almost every Metallica song. Dude's a master in arranging music.
Also these songs wouldn't sound the same if they had some other drummer playing, check for example Mike Portnoy playing this. He's a beast of a drummer, but his style just doesn't compliment this song.
Hope you listen through the whole record, it's a banger!
Back in the day Lars was an awesome drummer, now he struggles too much trying to play the older stuff and has become sloppy about it. The newer stuff yeah much easier. Most band members contribute with the writing and arrangements.... thats why him and James are always butting heads when it comes to writing, they argue like a married couple does lol 🤘
This song is life..pure and simple
Battery is also a deskription of military barrage. Like an artillery battery. An absolute besiegment of munitions.
Haven't watched you guys in awhile, I'm afraid, but this was a great reintroduction ... seeing you both grooving on this absolute banger
Master of Puppets is my fave album of all time, and arguably one of the best metal albums ever made
It's about how violence in the world has always been around and can't be stopped. They do have a few lines, however, where they use the word "bettery" as a noun instead of a verb. In those cases it's being used as a double entendre.
Extremely well crafted song.
You guys are awesome. Here's a good 80s Metal band that was the target of the pmrc. W,A.S.P. love machine or the hellion, I'd choose.
In case you were wondering, the main club they used to play at in their early years was called the battery club, that's what this song is about
The Metal Kings. 🤘
appreciate ya
I needed this!😆😆😆
Me and 2 of my friends broke our school record for most days in a row going to school drunk with this song and album as the soundtrack. They'd get to my house and we'd do shots of Everclear straight (back when it was 190 proof) and have a chaser of Everclear and lemonade mix and in between shots we'd be headbanging hard to this album (and this was the 1st track). The 80s were glorious.
For me ,personally, this is the definition of thrash. My favorite Metallica song right here. You can't help but feel charged after this. And power metal is older.
The first metal song I ever heard was the 1999 Woodstock version of metallica "seek and destroy." It would be awesome if you could react to it, as it holds special memories for me. Thanks guys, love the content
Shreds! Remember when this was new.
if you really wanna know how metal came to be there is a really good documentary called "METAL: a headbanger's journey" it's even on youtube these days, i got that on DVD ;D
Some of the songs on Master of Puppets almost make it feel like a concept album. Several songs are about the things that control our lives, Master of Puppets about addiction, Sanitarium about mental health, Leper Messiah about religion, Disposable Heroes about war...but then there's Battery and The Thing That Should Not Be and my concept album hypothesis falls apart. Battery is about Battery St. where they got their start in music, and The Thing is based on an H.P. Lovecraft story called Shadow Over Innsmouth.
This song rules!
Dudes, I like your channel, very entertaining. So, I once again ask you, it becomes an annual tradition now at this moment, to do Opeth - Forest of October. Appropriately for, well, the month of October!
Best intro!
What up what up Baranger, what up smokey!! Aka smoke dogg, was awesome, Spiral out sunday. you guys I think it might be Sunday still but for me and the world again or whatever might be Monday and ya never thought you would cover this song this is a really cool song hope you guys like it rock on guys and today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!💪🐙🎃🗼
There is no such thing as favorite Metallica song... I love a lot of them for different reasons... Of Wolf and Man might be at the top though
The song battery refers to Battery Street where James and Lars kind of started out. It was a place where all the cool heavy-metal guys hung out and was a place of neverending good vibes/energy James used those times and that place as a never-ending inspiration and energy that he drawed upon going forward. I never could quite figure out that songs meaning until I read the explanation! LOL
The look on Smokey's face when Hollywood stopped the song! Hahaha, we feel you!
y6ou guys are solid im from nz throwing yas a like
I’ve said this a gagillion times, Lars maybe never be the greatest or one of the greatest drummers ever, but his stamina WILL be top notch! Especially live!
Good choice. Can you please do something by Morbid Angel? They were one of the first death metal bands, and they're one of the most popular.
Smoke with the NOFX shirt!! Definitely need to react to NOFX!!
I would argue that the album artwork is indicative of “Disposable Heroes” rather than the “Master of Puppets” album title track. Or, perhaps a meshing of the two.
Power metal has its origins in original heavy metal bands like Iron Maiden for the musical content and Dio for the lyrical content. Played faster. Heavy metal came first then thrash metal and later came power and groove metal.
Metallica themselves never wanted to be called a Trash Metal Band! They played Power Metal right from the start!
@@homersimpson8414 I don't know kill them all is pretty thrashy. But definitely would not consider them power metal at all! They don't sing about dragons or anything like that :)
The original term for Thrash Metal was Power Metal, but after common use of the word Thrashing in the underground and then a review of Metallica's Ride The Lightning in 1984 that supposedly coined the term Thrash Metal, the genre was cemented. In terms of when both genres came out, many point to Rainbow being the first Power Metal band having included influences of fantasy and symphonic textures about battles and mythology. However, and here's what I find quite interesting, it's arguable that both Power Metal and Thrash Metal began with Queen of all bands! Queen were doing fast Metal songs in their early years, most notable Stone Cold Crazy from 1974, of which Metallica covered and is considered the first Thrash Metal song by many. However, several months earlier that same year, they had an album that is often retrospectively seen as the most overshadowed Queen album, despite reaching the ears of many soon-to-be Power Metal legends such as Blind Guardian. On that album, there was nothing but fantasy and artistic tragedy-inspired lyrics overtop symphonic narrative-inducing heavy metal instrumentals that have later been described as early steps into Power Metal. The most notable song that fits this is Ogre Battle! Soaring harmonies and heavy suspenseful riffs with lyrics about mythical beings in battle, it quite literally screams Power Metal, 2 years before Rainbow went Power Metal with Ronnie James Dio and 8 years before Iron Maiden went Power Metal with Bruce Dickinson!
And I grew up during thrash and power metal... They basically mean the same exact thing as far as I know.... we also had a "speed metal" category
Orion and Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) are two of my favorite songs by Metallica...
This is one of the greatest albums of all time, across all genres.
Basically as perfect as an album can get 👌🏼
After all these years, this is still the greatest metal album of all time. From front to back.
The album Master of Puppets was added to the Library of Congress National Recording Registry.... That's next-level shit. That whole album is AMAZING.
This song is about the family/fans giving them energy and in return they feed the energy back to the fans. And this song is absolutely thrash.
Hypnotizing power
Crushing all that cower
Battery is in reference to Battery St in San Francisco and the strong allegiance of fans they gathered at that venue.
Before TOOL was my favorite band, it was METALLICA and this was and still is my favorite studio album from them! 🤘🏻👨🏻🦲👍🏻
In '91 when the "Black" album came out, all us old metalheads turned our backs. They cut their hair and sold out
Starting with the black album they pretty much became a joke band.
For an epic vocal performance from James react to Bleeding Me from the original S&M show from 99. The band sounds so good at this show with the orchestra, but Bleeding Me is incredible.
Shout out Battery St in San Fran!
9:18 the “why did you take my Metallica away?” face is real
If you have ever seen an old movie where soldiers take a big pole and slam it against a castle gate, that is the Battery
Next..The Thing That Should Not Be. Don't forget Outlaw Torn, Devils Dance and Bleeding Me. Please do the versions of Metallica with San Francisco Symphony Orchestra
Battery is the crowd the music that they are playing the aggression of the crowd and how they feed off of each other. That's what I think of with this song.
This album starts with Battery and ends with Damage inc. Another thrasher and one of my favs.
I'm pretty sure the rockabye song being mentioned in the beginning is Shawn Mullins. I don't know how I remember that...maybe all the MTV lol.
