For those of you that may be too young to know this, Master of Puppets did not get radio play in the 80's. No mainstream rock stations would touch it. It was too heavy. It became legendary among the fans and it spread from there. Lots of cassette tape copies went from teen hands to teen hands. Maybe 20 years later rock stations added it to their play list to play on occasion but till this day, rock radio is still scared of this song.
WVVX in Chicago had a radio station that gave a 4 hour window where 2 lousy DJ’s played metal including Metallica and everything out at the time. The station wasn’t even broadcast in stereo. Fortunately Chicago had a nightly 4 hour window to hear the likes of Metallica and other metal bands way back in the day before Metallica sold-out.
Seriously? We live in 2022 where the music industry is almost ruined. The music industry likes to push stupid pop stars. Why feel proud for charting? Who cares about charts? Master of puppets was, is, and always be an incredible song. No matter if it was low or high at the charts. Charts are for the people in desks who care about sales, not musicians.
How is it possible that after 36 years this still sounds so incredibly mesmerizing and breathtaking... it is freakishly good and timeless, almost alienish; one for the ages.
It’s interesting how it doesn’t sound any less heavy than 10 or 20 years ago. Even if you listen to older Black Sabbath, you kinda get the feeling that “yeah that’s cool but that’s obviously oldies’ stuff.*” Here, the heaviness is timeless. * No disrespect to BS, I love them.
The change in the POV in the bridge from the drug to the addict is lyrical perfection. The guitar solo and the chord progression after "Fix me!" represents how the addict, despite the "master" not fulfilling his promise, still sinks once more into using, which is addiction simplified. James Hetfield is a lyrical master.
I really don’t care about the resurgence- I’m just really happy some classic Metallica is being recognized. Even if it’s mainstream attention. Fuck yeah, Metallica for all 🤘
@@joshlabadie I don’t see why a lot of people are mad at people becoming Metallica fans. Their legend will live on even more now since the new generation will have them to listen to now
Fuck the resurgence, there was never any resurgence, this song was and will always be great, perfect and immortal, the greatest Heavy Metal song ever recorded. Been listening and singing my heart out of it since I was 14. Fuck the "resurgence".
Like it or not, Metallica has been "mainstream" since the black album. They haven't always been super "popular" but if I'm not mistaken, every single album since the Black has debuted at #1. The have also consistently sold out the biggest arenas world wide. What I'm happy about is a whole new generation getting introduced to the Cliff era Metallica. I WISH I could experience them for the first time, like I did back in 84 or 85.
Yeah Cliff era of Metallica was the best part before he died. I'm glad that Metallica are getting the recognition they deserve and the new generation listening to Metallica is awesome! These kids need to know what REAL music is instead of listening to EDM all the time. Hell, maybe Metallica are the key for rock and metal making a huge comeback like it's been a long time waiting for.
@@ManletStrength Rock and Metal are never making a “huge comeback”. And there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s not “dead” or “dying either”. It’s just falling in popularity, same way blues did and jazz and all kinds of music. It will never be the dominant force in music again. Enjoy it because you enjoy it, not because of its international popularity, fame or recognition.
Found it in 93, i was 14. Bought the tape and got bummed out when i found out there was no video for this song, (unlike enter sandman...) I'm 43 and now this video got released. Mind blowing. Have a great day, brother.
it starts with 3 steps: Get away from other addicts, love yourself like the only real thing and hold your decision to shine. Be patience, drink water and take a daily dose of sun bathing, running and exercise

I'm glad to see how Metallica, and this song specifically, has become a trend the last month. It doesn't matter that this has been possible just for a Netflix series, it's that kind of song that changed the game when it was released and still is a superb song almost 40 years later! Long live to Metal. Long live Metallica.
FR! I never listened to metallica before stranger things but i’m glad it’s become more popular because i was able to find this band and this song especially. i don’t think it’s fair how people are making fun of people who found metallica through stranger things. Like poeple should be more glad their favorite bands are becoming more popular!
@@tobythebat I've never even watched stranger things but I've loved Metallica since I first really discovered them back in 1994 when I was 8. I'm glad more people are realizing how insanely good their old stuff is though, whether it came from a Netflix series or not.
That beautiful section represents the ecstasy of taking drugs. How beautiful and floaty it feels. And then as the tempo increases and you hear the rage and pain building as the urge from addiction comes back. It really is incredible.
@MLgamings I always thought of the soft part as the ecstasy of victory and returning home, as it speeds up the realization that they’ll have to do it all again is slowly returning to them, and it builds anguish and pain.
They probably got the idea recently, but they were also probably waiting until after the Stranger Things finale to release it to use the hype train to their advantage.
THEY TRYING WAKE YOU DUM DUMS UP... Yall still think Nothing is going on and it's all coincidence. GO LISTEN AND READ LYRICS TO KILL EM ALL ALBUM... They been telling you what's up.
I feel like nobody’s talking about the message of this song. The song is most likely the perspective of a drug controlling someone who is addicted. Like talking about how more is what they need, how they twist their minds, how they are leading the addicted person to death,how they smash their dreams and make them stop playing out of passion, hell “take your breakfast on a mirror” could be a clear reference to drugs you snort. We see how the addicted person asks where there dreams went, how the drug lied to them, and how they get laughed at or humiliated which drug addicted people usually do. Only for the drug to once again take over and sing about how their killing them and how they rule their whole life
@@pattananninja yep, that's it, I originally thought it was about war and the deaths that cause, because of the album cover, and the master of puppets being the rulers that declare wars
I heard this song for the first time in 1986 on my cousin’s walkman and to this day it’s still the coolest thing I have ever heard. I remember it like it was yesterday. Glad to see everyone finally catching up after 30+ years
Esto es Metallica, sacando ventaja de la reciente exposición en Stranger... Mientras nuevas generaciones conozcan el metal mejor, digan lo que digan Metallica son los gigantes del género!!! 🤘🏼
I've been a Metallica fan for 34 years. This song still makes me bang my head like it's the 80's. Nothing, nobody, no one can touch those first 4 Metallica records. Those records changed my life forever. The last record was good, but they'll never top the first 4. Especially Master of Puppets. What a classic that will live on far after I'm gone.
August 22nd is my 30th birthday, Metallica will be playing in Canada and this is the very first time i get to see them... LiVE!!! August 23rd and 25th is going to be the best weekend of my entire life I swear to god, I never had a lot of money coming up and to be able to go see a band I've loved since I was a child is quite possibly a once in a lifetime chance and I fuckin took it!! I am flying from London Ontario to Edmonton Alberta just for this! Thank you Metallica for always being there for me through your lyrics!! Depression, addiction, anxiety and even insomnia were my downfalls and listening to you guys ESPECIALLY Master of Puppets and Whiskey In The Jar have helped me through a lot just listening to my favorite songs of yours on repeat for hours on end and just screaming at the top of my lungs to get my anger and frustrations out is sometimes all I ever need. So from the bottom of my icy cold heart THANk YOU JAMES, LARS, ClIFFE, KIRK AND ROB! METALLICA FAMILY FOREVER!!!!!
I think they are great for some of the newer fans to learn the lyrics of the old militia classics. We used to read them on the LP and tape inserts. More of this please! 👍👍👍
This came out way cleaner than I ever imagined. Proud to call them my all time favorite band. People who are here from Stranger Things, welcome to the Metallica family. You'll never want to leave!
Admit it... we were all in our teenage year when we first heard this song. And one big deception back then was this missing video for this legendary song. A young teenage dream has been fullfill, thanks Metallica!
Such an epic and amazing track. The explosive opening, the slightly off kilter riff showing instability, the big crash and a moment of clarity in the middle, then the struggle to make it right and keep going, but the final verse shows it's an ongoing battle. Brilliant songwriting.
I am glad that newer generations can now discover this awesome song because of its inclusion in other media Reminds me of the times when i discovered Metallica because of song One from AJFA that was included in Guitar Hero 3.... Which opened the door for me to metal music in general. Let's hope that MoP will do the same thing for younger generation and show 'em what REAL music is like
Finally! We need Metallica to do this with other songs because there’s too much variation in fans’ lyrics videos. An authoritative version will, in my opinion, better represent the material for those who do reaction videos.
Well it's something that internet kids won't know but if you want to read the actual lyrics you can just buy a physical copy of the album, there's lyrics in there.
@@StateOfMercury LOL. And yet, people who film and upload reaction videos and thereby spread Metallica’s music to a wider audience use lyrics videos. But you’re right; people should use just the website, which is why Metallica released a lyrics video on its TH-cam channel.
I just came back from their concert, I can't put into words how thrilling and exhilarating this song was. The perfect way to end the perfect night. From about half my school's guitar program, thanks legends.
U.S.A - God of Rock/Metal U.K - King of Rock/Metal Canada - Prince of Rock/Metal Germany - Legend of Rock/Metal Australia - Professional of Rock/Metal Ireland - Amazing of Rock/Metal Japan - Anime of Rock/Metal
I’m glad the few comments I found that where gatekeeping Metallica from Stranger Things fans are either deleted or buried. Gatekeeping does nothing for anyone.
Metallica now has a whole new younger generation listening to them 36 years later ...stranger things knew exactly what they were doing and I'm giving them a thumbs up!!! Great job Metallica, they couldn't of used a greater song!! 💚 Long live Eddie Munson & Metallica 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
i want to thank you for being so accepting of us newer fans ! it’s so hard to feel welcomed lately with most metallica fans being angry that stranger things is where we came from , but it’s really heartwarming to see that we’re still welcomed by some :)
@@simplynegan i mean they're kinda right. Metal was largely underground for a long time, you'd be surprised too. But I'm glad kids are listening to this instead of hyper depresso crap like billie eilish or smth.
Uma vez ouvi dizer q a definição de um clássico é quando vc escuta pela primeira vez e parece que já o escutou a vida toda, e pela centésima como se fosse a primeira. Música e letras irretocáveis. Simplesmente Perfeito!
I don't think we should judge if people are here from Stranger Things or if they grew up listening to metallica I think we should just be happy to listen to this amazing music and that people of all ages are experiencing real music
Me personally, I only judge people if they say the song is *FROM* Stranger Things. If they know it from the show, that's cool, but if they think it came from Stranger Things or say it did, that's where I and a lot of others get irritated.
This song is about drugs, so here is what i think the music would be based on emotions and feelings. 0:00 - fresh dose 3:35 - lose effects of drug 3:53 - know its bad, but hard to resist 5:42 - new dose 8:26 - overdose
I have to say I was skeptical of the remasters but damn. They really nailed it. Having the bass louder (and also tighter and EQed better) makes a world of difference.
I was 12 when this album came out, but I got my first copy when I was 15. It wasn't payed on the radio. Back then, heavy metal was considered "of the Devil" and pretty much banned from listeners under 18, at least in my area. I had to put it on an unlabeled tape to play it in my Walkman at school so it wouldn't be confiscated. The fact that it was "forbidden fruit" made it even more badass.
One way that Metallica could be better is by realising that the music itself has a kind of timeless quality and emotional effect that is cheapened or made crass by putting lyrics on top of it. I would like to hear a purely instrumental Metallica concert or album.
I've been a fan since 1996, when Load was released. Metallica helped me get through my high school years. I'm excited there is a new awareness for this amazing song. Metallica & the 80's forever!
Великая вещь! Нечего говорить... Только Орион и может с этим шедевром "соперничать". Там в авторах - все четверо, по-моему...но, думаю, не ошибусь, если предположу, что благодарить надо, прежде всего, Клиффа с Хэтом.
Recuerdo hace algunos años cuando de niña escuché por primera vez a Metallica, fue gracias a mi papá ( y fue una revolución para mí, las letras, la voz, la música me llegaba tanto) . Ahora ya de adulta, me encanta ver cómo su música sigue rompiendo barreras, que gente nueva los escuché y aprecie como en su momento yo lo hice. Metallica ha estado en mis mejores y peores momentos, haciéndome sacar mis enojos cantando, haciéndome llorar cantando, haciéndome sentir comprendida cantando y aquí sigo, atesorando cada recuerdo y cada momento que Metallica me ha dado.
Tenia 11 años cuando escuché Kill Em All y literalmente me voló la cabeza y quería tocar la viola así!!!! Hoy tengo 44 y soy profesor de guitarra gracias a esos riff del primer albúm, saludos heroes de la guitarra!!!
Recuerdo allá por el 2009, yo en secundaria, había en el taller de guitarra un tipo que era el prodigio de la clase, y siempre le pedían los compañeros tocar el riff de “Master” (era lo único que yo conocía de la canción), era extasiante escucharlo, como bajaban sus dedos por el mástil, casi como Eddie en Stranger Things, un día, por esos días, en una tarde, en un capituló de los Simpson, aparece una banda llamada “Metallica”, y al salir de escena comienzan a tocar “Master of Puppets”, brinque del sillón y me dirigí a la que fue mi primera computadora a buscar a la banda y la canción “Master” y lo demás es historia, después de más de 13 años, son un estilo de vida para mi, su trayectoria, su trabajo, inspiración de mi lado músico… y hasta el momento, siguen siendo mi banda favorita. Genial que las nuevas generaciones la estén conociendo!! Yeaaahh!! 🤘🏼
Ya somos dos bro, aunque los conocí de manera diferente a esta banda gracias a que la pasaba siempre jugando con amigos en el juego de Guitar Hero: Metallica cuando tenia 7 u 8 años de edad.
Yo creo que lo complicado de este riff es la resistencia a estar tocando todo con púa hacia abajo jaja y la neta el Eddie no la toca tan chido, le falta flow
Haha, during that scene in Stranger Things, I looked over to my 18 year old daughter, smiled viciously and nodded. She knew exactly what I wanted to say, but I needed no words 🤘 This song started my guitar journey and changed my life forever 🙏

It's also 4½ minutes too long for "mainstream rock stations". Doesn't that play into it as well?

I hate to be that guy but it’s an instrumental
I heard this song for the first time in 1986 on my cousin’s walkman and to this day it’s still the coolest thing I have ever heard. I remember it like it was yesterday. Glad to see everyone finally catching up after 30+ years
Ah the Walkman! I still have mine :)
Can we all agree that the opening is one of the best electric guitar openings ever?
Fade to black is sure one of Metallica best openings

I've been a Metallica fan for 34 years. This song still makes me bang my head like it's the 80's. Nothing, nobody, no one can touch those first 4 Metallica records. Those records changed my life forever. The last record was good, but they'll never top the first 4. Especially Master of Puppets. What a classic that will live on far after I'm gone.
lucretia is better
Maiden bro….
I agree, I first heard them from my big sister in the eighties. I used to listen to it on an old cassette recorder.
agree
34 years is exactly the same as me 😂
August 22nd is my 30th birthday, Metallica will be playing in Canada and this is the very first time i get to see them... LiVE!!!
August 23rd and 25th is going to be the best weekend of my entire life I swear to god, I never had a lot of money coming up and to be able to go see a band I've loved since I was a child is quite possibly a once in a lifetime chance and I fuckin took it!! I am flying from London Ontario to Edmonton Alberta just for this!
Thank you Metallica for always being there for me through your lyrics!!
Depression, addiction, anxiety and even insomnia were my downfalls and listening to you guys ESPECIALLY Master of Puppets and Whiskey In The Jar have helped me through a lot just listening to my favorite songs of yours on repeat for hours on end and just screaming at the top of my lungs to get my anger and frustrations out is sometimes all I ever need.
So from the bottom of my icy cold heart THANk YOU JAMES, LARS, ClIFFE, KIRK AND ROB!
METALLICA FAMILY FOREVER!!!!!
I think they are great for some of the newer fans to learn the lyrics of the old militia classics. We used to read them on the LP and tape inserts. More of this please! 👍👍👍
This came out way cleaner than I ever imagined. Proud to call them my all time favorite band. People who are here from Stranger Things, welcome to the Metallica family. You'll never want to leave!
This song speaks to me as a recovering addict and alcoholic with 31 months clean and sober because addiction is the master of puppets.
I hate you😂
This is from the 80s and it will forever the best song all of heavy metal has ever seen.
If we ever get another doom game, we need some Metallica music man.
We need someone to fill in the shoes of Mick Gordon.
Yes sir
Admit it... we were all in our teenage year when we first heard this song. And one big deception back then was this missing video for this legendary song. A young teenage dream has been fullfill, thanks Metallica!
I was a teenager 15 years ago and I still had this Album as my first. Best $10 spent (before Hot Topic stopped being cool).
Zombie land double tap
I'm a teenager now thanks mom and stranger things
I heard this in my moms car. I wasn’t really interested, then I heard it again, first song I’ve heard myself out of all rock and metal
I was 13 when I started listening, now I’m 14, fuck rap, with made up words like, mo, lo, vo, co.
Such an epic and amazing track. The explosive opening, the slightly off kilter riff showing instability, the big crash and a moment of clarity in the middle, then the struggle to make it right and keep going, but the final verse shows it's an ongoing battle. Brilliant songwriting.
I am glad that newer generations can now discover this awesome song because of its inclusion in other media
Reminds me of the times when i discovered Metallica because of song One from AJFA that was included in Guitar Hero 3.... Which opened the door for me to metal music in general. Let's hope that MoP will do the same thing for younger generation and show 'em what REAL music is like
Finally! We need Metallica to do this with other songs because there’s too much variation in fans’ lyrics videos. An authoritative version will, in my opinion, better represent the material for those who do reaction videos.
Well it's something that internet kids won't know but if you want to read the actual lyrics you can just buy a physical copy of the album, there's lyrics in there.
@@RafaelCDet touché! 🤗
@@RafaelCDet
Are you suggesting that I don’t know the lyrics?
@@StateOfMercury
LOL. And yet, people who film and upload reaction videos and thereby spread Metallica’s music to a wider audience use lyrics videos.
But you’re right; people should use just the website, which is why Metallica released a lyrics video on its TH-cam channel.
I fail to see what's wrong with variation in fanmade lyric videos

I just remembered this was the base for E1M1 I believe so I'm just here now rockin
Me personally, I only judge people if they say the song is *FROM* Stranger Things. If they know it from the show, that's cool, but if they think it came from Stranger Things or say it did, that's where I and a lot of others get irritated.

Greatest metal song ever written. No one can take that away from them.

@@Gregbaltzer Yes, they are riff-masters too
@@AceCrickey I love Death. Bolt Thrower could churn out the riffs as well
Clássico da adolescência. Faz muito tempo! É tão bom que soa como novo.
This song is about drugs, so here is what i think the music would be based on emotions and feelings.
0:00 - fresh dose
3:35 - lose effects of drug
3:53 - know its bad, but hard to resist
5:42 - new dose
8:26 - overdose

It's about cocaine, once you are that deep that you smoke crack this song fits perfectly with that.
I have to say I was skeptical of the remasters but damn. They really nailed it. Having the bass louder (and also tighter and EQed better) makes a world of difference.
This is actually pretty cool. A song as legendary as this still deserves better though imo
I was thinking the same. I love the song, is my fav song since I hear it the first time. But I don't know, I don't feel engage with the video xd
@@nestorcolt well it’s the style metallica has
I was 12 when this album came out, but I got my first copy when I was 15. It wasn't payed on the radio. Back then, heavy metal was considered "of the Devil" and pretty much banned from listeners under 18, at least in my area. I had to put it on an unlabeled tape to play it in my Walkman at school so it wouldn't be confiscated. The fact that it was "forbidden fruit" made it even more badass.
The beginning riff has me expecting E1M1 to start playing at any moment, I can see where E1M1's inspiration came from.

One way that Metallica could be better is by realising that the music itself has a kind of timeless quality and emotional effect that is cheapened or made crass by putting lyrics on top of it. I would like to hear a purely instrumental Metallica concert or album.

Recuerdo hace algunos años cuando de niña escuché por primera vez a Metallica, fue gracias a mi papá ( y fue una revolución para mí, las letras, la voz, la música me llegaba tanto) . Ahora ya de adulta, me encanta ver cómo su música sigue rompiendo barreras, que gente nueva los escuché y aprecie como en su momento yo lo hice. Metallica ha estado en mis mejores y peores momentos, haciéndome sacar mis enojos cantando, haciéndome llorar cantando, haciéndome sentir comprendida cantando y aquí sigo, atesorando cada recuerdo y cada momento que Metallica me ha dado.

Recuerdo allá por el 2009, yo en secundaria, había en el taller de guitarra un tipo que era el prodigio de la clase, y siempre le pedían los compañeros tocar el riff de “Master” (era lo único que yo conocía de la canción), era extasiante escucharlo, como bajaban sus dedos por el mástil, casi como Eddie en Stranger Things, un día, por esos días, en una tarde, en un capituló de los Simpson, aparece una banda llamada “Metallica”, y al salir de escena comienzan a tocar “Master of Puppets”, brinque del sillón y me dirigí a la que fue mi primera computadora a buscar a la banda y la canción “Master” y lo demás es historia, después de más de 13 años, son un estilo de vida para mi, su trayectoria, su trabajo, inspiración de mi lado músico… y hasta el momento, siguen siendo mi banda favorita. Genial que las nuevas generaciones la estén conociendo!! Yeaaahh!! 🤘🏼
