This song is about drug addiction and how it ends controlling your life until you are done. The instrumental side of the song is divided in three mayor sections, the first one from start until before the solo, is about the urgency and anxiety of getting drugged, the middle part with the solo and armonic stuff is the extasis after you have consumed your dose, the last part after the first solo when it gets to the second one represents the desperation of the effects ending and returning to reality with anger and anxiety.
@@krw73 its good to give backstory to people who cant get the point at the first listen/reaction, i think it helps to understand how the band goes in songwriting and encourages to keep listenting to more.
explain to me the phrase "obey you master", who is this master? the dealer? the first records that have this bass player talk about wars, when the bass player changed they started to approach other subjects
@@carlosmartins344 The master is the drug itself, You obey to the urge of consuming. I mean James said he was inspire to write this song after he saw some dudes , i dont remember where, that were full high up on cocaine doing a mess..
This is Metallica at their absolute peak. Their arrangements and compositional skills were influenced very heavily by the bassist’s love of classical music. If you imagine the guitars being replaced by the string section of an orchestra, the classical music vibe will jump through the speakers at you. Absolutely genius album. RIP to the great Cliff Burton, the band has never been the same without your influence on the bass and in the writing room.
Metallica's album Master Of Puppets is the first heavy metal recording chosen for preservation by the Library of Congress due to its historical importance.
Welcome to the Metallica journey! Master of Puppets is about addiction. Lead singer James Hetfield: “deals pretty much with drugs. How things get switched around, instead of you controlling what you're taking and doing its drugs controlling you." It's worth to listen for the lyrics again with this context. Some powerful stuff. As for requests, anything from Master of Puppets album (Disposable Heroes, Welcome Home Sanitarium). You can't go wrong, it's a masterpiece and viewers will subscribe and come back. You have opened the door to the Metallica Army. Best of luck in your reactions!
Most metal music songs are longer than the standard pop type songs. However metallica is known for long songs and long intros. The album master of muppets is the first metal album placed in the library of congress for its musical and cultural impact. The entire album is spectacular from start to finish. And yes they play these long songs live. They are known for their live shows. I’ve seen them many times live and it’s better than a recording always.
One of Metallica's best songs, in my opinion, is Creeping Death. The live version/video of them in Moscow back in 1991 is amazing. You can't help but get pumped and be mind blown by to crowd of more than 1.6 million fans! A must see!
The lyrics are pretty easy to catch. And, "Chop your breakfast on a mirror," is a dead giveaway. You two probably just didn't know to look, because most people think metal is just noise. The hidden gem is how they used the instruments to mimic the ups and downs of addiction. Once you know this, and you can imagine each part as a separate phase of the addict's experience, you'll have a whole new appreciation of the song. And, you'll be able to feel the lead singer's pain.
Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but when the music switches to a more dreamlike state is basically representing the high and euphoria felt from the drug.
This song is split into three parts. The beginning is the craving for the drug. The melodic piece is the high and the build up to the end is the return of the cravings. The song was written to mimic addiction, and the lyrics represent that as well I’ve been Metallica fan since they arrived on the scene 40 years ago.
Welcome to the world of Metallica. I first saw them on the Master of Puppet tour in 1986 (Opening for Ozzy). The next day I went out and bought all of their cassettes--yeah I'm old. I've seen every tour since. If they come to your city on this next tour, do yourself a favor and go to the show. It's a lot of fun.
That’s why metal songs are so long, it’s about the instrumentation. So much of metal is not even about the vocals it’s about the bad ass, riffs and good musicianship.
Definitely do creeping death live in Moscow 1991. There was 1.6 million people. The song is about the angel of death (plague) from the Bible, from the plagues perspective. Their songs are usually pretty deep.
Heavy metal songs are normally longer than the 2 minute songs that you get from other genres. Rime of the ancient mariner from Iron Maiden, for example, is about 13 minutes long. Which is based on the poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, writtem in 1798. I think that was their longest track, until very recently. You should really also react to some Iron Maiden, most people start off with their song Hallowed be thy name. Which is about an inmate on Death Row. Most of Iron Maidens' tracks are like history lessons as well, which is cool.
Well it all depends really! There are some bands that do short 3 minute songs, and others that do 15 minute ones! Metal is easily one of the best genres for its diversity
@@REAPERx600 Dopesmoker by Sleep is 63 minutes, Bell Reaper by Bell Witch is 83 minutes and The Descent of Man by Sabazius a whopping 11 hours and 17 minutes. Though how much Sabazius can still be considered metal is debatable. (Though Mirror Reaper is definitely some variation of Doom Metal)
I think one of the best old heavy metal bands is iron maiden. The first heavy metal album I ever bought back in the early 80s was iron maiden number of the beast. They are a great band if you want excellent guitar, good, hard drums, and a fantastic vocalist. I Iron Maiden is a lot like Metallica, their best stuff was all in the 80s.
i remember working the pits at the 2008 KROQ Weenie Roast when Metallica was the headliner and and when they hit this song we were pulling ppl out left and right canuse of the rush to the front.
The Lyrics literally says "Chop your breakfast on a mirror". I dont know how much more obvious of a concept you can get without just flat out telling you what it is. xD
Find something, anything, they did with the San Franciso Symphony as accompaniment. You'll be amazed at how well heavy metal works with a classical orchestra.
The Master of puppets of the drugs or whatever addiction that you have it pulls your strings. Kind of like a line chop your breakfast on a mirror is referring to cocaine. And then the middle guitar break is you getting your fix. And then the come down is when the music picks back up again
The quiet part is when the drug addict gets his fix and feels better for a bit. Then the music slowly builds and builds as the drug addect gets more and more desperate. He gets so strung out that he starts asking the drugs he's addicted to why things didn't turn out as great as he thought/was promised they would. Finally it gets so bad that he yells "FIX ME!" as he needs a fix BAD. The drug/master just goes on to tell him how he's screwed and it actually laughs in his face at the end of the song. This is the perfect anti-drug addiction control song. Metallica rules!
I've invented a new game. Search for metallica Master of Puppets reaction videos on TH-cam. Then before it starts try to guess which people have snorted cocaine. Place a bet on each person in the video. Then press play. You will know it immediately when the lyrics "chop your breakfast on a mirror" comes up in the video. Their reaction to those lyrics will be obvious. Plus you get to listen to Master of Puppets over and over again.
i enjoyed your reaction - i hope you watch a high quality live version of this song - now that you've heard the studio version - i think you would enjoy it more than if you had jumped right to the live performance. Thanks for posting this one.
I'm 46. Played ice hockey growing up and in high school we played master of puppets over the P.A. system I'm the arena to get our team Hyped before every home game. All these years later the music stands the test of time
You talked about doing it live, of course they do & it's a fan favorite at every show--if you want to watch, my favorite version is the Québec Magnetic. You'll see their interaction with the crowd and you'll get a glimpse of what is to be at one of their shows. I'm also partial to this one, because I was there in the middle of this crowd for the whole show, and I had a great time. Thanks for all that you do & Have a nice day.
The idea of the puppet master has been depicted quite vividly in art through the works of Shary Boyle “Outside The Palace of Me.” I saw her exhibits in January.
This song helped me with my addiction and reminded me that I was no longer in n control of my life and that the drugs ruled my life and Metallica I consider helped save my life I also would like if you guys could react to Metallica fade to back
If you want to see how this goes down live there are plenty of versions on TH-cam. One of the most recent was at Manchester UK. My son and I went to the London show just prior in 2019. Played open air in a rain storm. You get the pace, the back and forth with the crowd. You can see that after over 30 years they can still nail it. It's a different song live. Trust me on this, you won't be disappointed.
Would love to see you guys react to Iron Maiden . I would like to suggest you start off with " Dance of Death " En Vivo version. These guys have been around since the mid 70's and are still selling out concerts around the world . 90% of there music is based on history and the singer is a master storyteller. I am more than sure you's will be blown away by there energy. REALLY looking forward to you reacting to this .
They are the only billionaire metal band. Mostly thanks to the drummer that has lead the band in many way over the years. The singer old man James is not using effects, that is his voice. I can tell because I saw them live more than a decade ago, he's also one of the guitar players. Some songs he would play the solo too but not always.
High school, 1988, senior year. It was gym class, and we were in pairs, playing golf, using the school grounds as a golf course. I had my good ole' 1980's radio/cassette player strapped to my back, and BLASTED the entire Master of Puppets album throughout the period, ripping up the sod like a madman! Classrooms were nearby, and students were looking out the windows at me like I was on drugs! I think the teacher did too. Good times!! Thank you, Metallica, and thank you 2 for playing and experiencing this classic with us viewers, I'm gonna check out more of your stuff!!!
Never really associating this with ADDICTION, i can't tell you how many times my friends and i smoked joints in the 80's, listening to this song/ album.
Hello, BARS ＆ BARBELLS ! ! and everyone in comment ! ! I was able to find a sincere reaction to a song I love ． Great ! ! , really great ! ! With love , respect and admiration from Japan ! ! 🇯🇵
The best reaction and compliment u can give metallica and their songs is giving a WHOOOAAAA... singing along when u don't even know it, it just took u over , and when I see u close your eyes jamming... that just means it mesmerized u... like it does me since the 80s... good reaction guys
Metallica was one of the fabulous four that started this genre along with Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer. Take me back to weight lifting when I was 14. Pumped up for real
True facts. This is the first Heavy Metal album that was admitted into the United States Library of Congress!! It was a masterpiece! Give it a thorough listen and tell me if you don’t agree!! It tackles many social issues to the era. Religion, drug addiction, etc..
8 min isn't exceptionally long in metal, as I'm sure many will tell you. Most metal bands have a few songs around or over the 8 min mark. An average song length in metal is around 4-5 min I would say. Welcome to metal. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Don't be afraid to research song meanings as well. It will help. Lots of metal has a societal or political message in it
Great reaction video/commentary…this song brings the energy for sure! Great way to start any Friday is with some heart pounding drums mixed with some electrifying guitars and powerful vocals by the legendary band, Metallica.✌️😎🎸🥁🎤⚡️🔥
Like you, I am not a metal fan, but this is really good. I love the switch in tempo. Like what someone on here said, very euphoric, when compared to the rest of the song. Powerful lyrics. I love how you put them in within the album cover! Clever!
Just discovered you guys. Been enjoying watching you. My only complaint is the sound of the music you are listening to almost sounds like we are listening to it through a cardboard wrapping paper tube. It has a weird hollow effect.
This is today's list pop music brain in a nutshell: an 8 and a half minute long song is crazy. Really? 8 minutes..? A sitcom episode lasts three times as long as that. Most people cant finish a small meal in that time. Never mind the fact that the usual music the radio feeds you with is some soulless, heartless, mass produced shit with no meaningful lyrical or musical content. Made to sell. For profit. Machine-like. In fact, AI is probably already creating music just as good (or rather bad). It's quite obvious what the lyrics are about. I'm surprised you didn't catch that earlier. I mean "Chop your breakfast on a mirror", "Taste me you will see, more is all you need".. etc.
This song is about drug addiction and how it ends controlling your life until you are done. The instrumental side of the song is divided in three mayor sections, the first one from start until before the solo, is about the urgency and anxiety of getting drugged, the middle part with the solo and armonic stuff is the extasis after you have consumed your dose, the last part after the first solo when it gets to the second one represents the desperation of the effects ending and returning to reality with anger and anxiety.

Wow, I think I like it better when I just thought it sounded cool!
It's the greatest metal song ever made IMO. It has EVERYTHING metal needs to be a perfect song.
No, it's not.
@@mercylavigne yes it is
@@mercylavigne It's his opinion clown. Now just use that thing between your ears and actually listen when someone comments.
Dyers Eve is better imo
@@mercylavigne did you not read where he said its the greatest metal song in His Opinion , he didnt say everyones opinion.
"Chop your breakfast on a mirror" makes it pretty clear on what this song is about.
White people can't do that
not to people that has no clue about "drug culture"
@@andralfoo so just Mormons then
Ok genius
Yeah but I was also stupid and didn't get that the first time. Some of us are just dumbasses!

1989 Seattle is better
Drug addiction Master is drug controling your 🧠 try ask for help,leave 4 bit back at they drug again.
INDEED MY FRIEND, EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS BAND IS ON A HIGH-LEVEL, THE LYRICS TOO. KEEP ENJOYING THIS METALLICA'S JOURNEY!!! 🤘🏼🎶
It’s about drug addiction. Was privileged enough to see Metallica many times. They were the SHXT especially when I was in high school!

The slow interlude is referring to the high song is about drugs apparent in the line chop your breakfast on a mirror
Most people are like that although once they hear "chop your breakfast on a mirror" It's like a light bulb goes off and instantly it all makes sense.
i remember working the pits at the 2008 KROQ Weenie Roast when Metallica was the headliner and and when they hit this song we were pulling ppl out left and right canuse of the rush to the front.
The addiction is the master and you're the puppet
Insane that these guys were around 20 years old when they recorded this album...
I mean...."Chop your breakfast on a mirror" is a preeeeetttyy big clue what is going on here. 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
React to Enter Sandman live in Moscow 1991. 1.6 million people in attendance.
Greatest band in history!
Now watch the video of them doing Enter Sandman live in Moscow in 1991.... You'll see 1.6 million people in the audience!
The Lyrics literally says "Chop your breakfast on a mirror".
I dont know how much more obvious of a concept you can get without just flat out telling you what it is.
xD
They have some amazing instrumentals.
Call of ktulu

To live is to die
Always good to see someone discovering Metallica
You two have 40 yrs of metallica music to catch up on🤣🤣🤘🤘

What makes this song great
This how they work in the meter,speed & time changes
And their transitions are seamless
If you want to see this live, watch the 1989 seattle version.
Metallica is THE best heavy metal band EVER!
The song is about addiction from the perspective of the addiction itself. I rule you, I’m your master, I will destroy your life etc.
you have to do Metallica - Enter Sandman Live Moscow 1991
Very cool reaction. not taking it too serious and having fun with it job done😁
Thank you!
You must check out Master of Puppets live in Seattle, 1989. It's intense!
Their seattle 89 live performance of this song was out of this world...In my opinion it was better than the studio version...Check it out
Awesome workout song

my husband has seen metallica back in the mid - late 80's when he was teenager
To put it out there this is one of the classics so they play it a lot live
Watch the live version Seattle 1989...!!..
It does have a longer intro though 😂
You talked about doing it live, of course they do & it's a fan favorite at every show--if you want to watch, my favorite version is the Québec Magnetic.

Needlework the way, chop your breakfast on a mirror. Not sure how old you guys are, but those two lines are a dead giveaway to what the song is about.
The idea of the puppet master has been depicted quite vividly in art through the works of Shary Boyle “Outside The Palace of Me.” I saw her exhibits in January.
Metallica is a live band. Check out they're live stuff. So good.
Specially their Live in Mexico City stuff.
This song helped me with my addiction and reminded me that I was no longer in n control of my life and that the drugs ruled my life and Metallica I consider helped save my life I also would like if you guys could react to Metallica fade to back
Congratulations! That's amazing!
@@barsandbarbells2022 thank you both and I enjoy your reactions they are awesome 🙏
Congratulations! You've officially heard music where real instruments are played.
What I love about Metallica is they can go hard with the need to scream.
If you want to see how this goes down live there are plenty of versions on TH-cam. One of the most recent was at Manchester UK. My son and I went to the London show just prior in 2019. Played open air in a rain storm. You get the pace, the back and forth with the crowd. You can see that after over 30 years they can still nail it. It's a different song live. Trust me on this, you won't be disappointed.
"Chop your breakfast on a mirror" should have given it away lol. RIP Cliff Burton!!!!
The main thing you have to remember about Metallica is that the music is also telling a story.
Great reaction guys!
Thank you!! 😁
Seen them live in concert awesome show yay 🤘😆🤘🎸🎸🥁🎤🔥🔥
Would love to see you guys react to Iron Maiden . I would like to suggest you start off with " Dance of Death " En Vivo version. These guys have been around since the mid 70's and are still selling out concerts around the world . 90% of there music is based on history and the singer is a master storyteller. I am more than sure you's will be blown away by there energy. REALLY looking forward to you reacting to this .
The user is the puppet and the drug of choice is the Master!!
There are a lot of great songs. Hard to pick a bad one.
Lulu 💀
if you ever get the chance to see them live i would highly recommend it
Excellent reaction! Thanks! ...yes METALLICA IS professional heavy metal!

It's 8,1/2 that's why it was never played on radio stations. But it still a well known song of Mettalica.
I love the rolling bass. Miss you Cliff!

Caught Somewhere In Time by Iron Maiden 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
And to think... these Metalkica kids in a band were 19-22 years old at the time. Let that sink in.
pretty sure these are not all your guys first times hearing some of these songs but still love your guys reactions, seem like great ppl.
There is not a bad Metallica song , but two of my favs are ONE and NOTHING ELSE MATTERS, enjoy the journey.

89 Seattle version is all time greatest
Yes, they gotta do it live. Indeed. Which is how they sell out arenas 30 years later :)
You just discovered the most seductive and attractive rabbit Hole in all Music…..Metallica’s 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
No affect on the voice other than a slight reverb. Just a gruff sailor voice.
No leaf clover...you will sing with it on the first go around. The words were kept simple for it and the MUSICAL HEARTBEAT ....
Just discovered you guys. Been enjoying watching you. My only complaint is the sound of the music you are listening to almost sounds like we are listening to it through a cardboard wrapping paper tube. It has a weird hollow effect.
also they have new album out in april.
This is today's list pop music brain in a nutshell: an 8 and a half minute long song is crazy. Really? 8 minutes..? A sitcom episode lasts three times as long as that. Most people cant finish a small meal in that time. Never mind the fact that the usual music the radio feeds you with is some soulless, heartless, mass produced shit with no meaningful lyrical or musical content. Made to sell. For profit. Machine-like. In fact, AI is probably already creating music just as good (or rather bad).
It's quite obvious what the lyrics are about. I'm surprised you didn't catch that earlier. I mean "Chop your breakfast on a mirror", "Taste me you will see, more is all you need".. etc.
