@@aidan3277 Actually... I get it bro. The thought of this scene being just kinda stupid did came trough in my mind, but then it got to me... and realized that in the end it all comes down to attitude. Just look at what is going on in the scene! the song I've always loved since my teenage years, the background, the hell-bats, the red lightning, the ambientation... its just sooo well executed! and then mah boy Dustin just headbanging like a true metal maggot! Srsly It just somehow draw a smile in my face and I went from being laying down in my couch with a "meh, its ok" attitude to literally sit down straight and starting to headbang a little and eventually straight up screaming "Hell yeah man!" to my screen (and to my wife, who was also watching hahaha) like I was in a freaking show or something, we enjoyed it sooo much!!! I suddenly became all about it and just let myself get driven by the moment. And srsly that song... Damn, it just fits PERFECTLY with what was going on! and the character and the way they pulled it off, its so freaking awesome! So please... dont be THAT guy. The sour, party-boomer guy... You decide how you react to everything. And tbh the scene is *legit* cool... easily the best scene in the whole 4 seasons and just made this franchise immortal IMO. Gotta love it!
Nothing can top this scene, Eddie was shredding heavy metal to distract a swarm of demon bats whilst in another dimension with a red lightning storm in the background, Most Metal Ever.
That is the most badass thing any mortal could do! Playing metal rock in an alternate dimension while being swarmed by demo-bats as lightning storms in the background! Eddie Munson is a legend! ⚡️🎸⚡️🎸⚡️
Playing Master of Puppets with red lightning in the background, and demonic hell bats swarming around you.. Yeah, that is one of the most metal ways to go out.
my dad was a big Metallica fan and we started watching stranger things when it first came out and sadly he passed last year, but I just know he would’ve LOVED Eddie in season 4 and absolutely LOVED this scene. Literally the whole time I was watching I was imagining what his exact reaction to this scene would be and thinking oh man, look at what your missing out on 🥺

It's crazy how this character was so obviously telegraphed to die and yet the writing and acting came together in the perfect way to make him an immediate icon in the fandom. I have my issues with season 4 but Eddie Munson is one of the greatest things this show gave us; there's nothing more reassuring than someone who makes you feel like it's okay to be who you are, and Joseph's performance carries such genuine big brother energy that you can't help but love him. Eddie was a hero long before he went to the Upside Down, because he was a dude who went out of his way to let people who feel out of place know they aren't alone.
I feel you man. As much as I love Stranger Things, I really hate how they keep writing characters like Alexei and Eddie essentially just into death. It’s a shame. But overall, really well written character and AMAZING solo.
And to think this album came out weeks before the spring break which means Eddie learned it perfectly and performed under intense pressure. Dudes a madlad
The fact that Eddie's actor was actually playing in real time too is incredibly impressive. I love this show's attention to detail, use of diegetic sounds, and practical effects.
I was so hoping his actor actually shredded this solo instead of it just being a stunt double or whatever the equal to that would be. A character's role always comes through the best when the actor fully embraces the role.
It’s so cool. What they did was they got Rob Trujillo’s (Metallica bassist) son to record the guitar for this, but Joseph actually played the song while filming this scene. I’m a metalhead myself, I know this whole song like it’s the back of my own band and watching his hands it is clear he actually knew what he was doing! God i love this scene and i love this show.
Yes, to die side by side with that character after that epic solo would grant us both access to Valhalla, and if not then on to another epic battle taking Valhalla.
The fact that Eddie could have literally just made noise with the guitar but decided “nah imma play some Metallica” instead makes this scene even more epic than it is.
@@SightUnseen555 weeks* the show's events start on March 21st, Master of Puppets came out March 3rd. Eddie Munson was a true master, and had really promising future as a guitarist.
fr dude and the camerawork and master of puppets combined with the atmosphere of the situation is an absolute masterpiece. stranger things never disappoints.
"In their last moments, people show you who they really are.." The Chrissy this is for you line shows just exactly what kind of person Eddie was. Risked his own life trying to save the world and avenge a girl he barely knew b/c he has compassion. Never judge a book by it's cover
He also chose to sacrifice himself when he could have left with Dustin. Decided this time I'm not going to run. If he went back with Dustin the bats may have followed through the gate and invaded Hawkins. True hero.
Well he barely knew her, but he clearly had feelings for her. I mean if they hadn't both died, who knows, maybe Eddie and Chrissy would have ended up together.
@cameroncalger8724 he was, but I definitely got the sense that he was crushing on her. I mean look at him, trying to impress her by talking about his nand.
Let’s take a moment to really think about how awesome Eddie really is: Season 4 takes place in Spring of 1986. Master Of Puppets was released just before Spring in 1986. This means that Eddie learned and mastered this, one of the most difficult down picking songs ever, in a couple months. And he played it perfectly under all that pressure. Most. Metal. Ever.
Being a guitar player, it's typically pretty easy to spot when somebody is faking it for a movie. It's cool to know Joseph actually knows what he's doing. It makes the scene that much more badass.
@@ericagibson9814 not true, one of the guys from Metallica son actually played the solo… Joseph said hes a guitarist, but not a metal guitarist in an interview about the scene
@@kamoflawedhawg535 He actually "played" the song though. What they did was have Joseph play the song and they dubbed the son playing over it. Because Joseph goes note for note with the song as it's played. If you know how to play the song you can watch him play it just fine in the show.
Negative every single character on the show is equally amazing it's just he is the coolest no argument there but make no mistake no one's the best they all are that's what makes the show so great.
This scene deserves a Golden Globe or any other award they give when they recognize an excellent scene like this... Specially this part 1:15 I've been repeating it a lot. It's an excellent shot! It gives me chills. Sorry for my english i'm learning by my own. ;)
@@buknaked ohhhh~ but for me he became one of my fav characters and also like he came in like 4th season and then ended up dying on the last ep and like that scene when he said that dialogue, dudeee it really broke me :′(
He was damn afraid of these all paranormal things, but he kept going despite everything. That's the definition of hero. Dustin was right, when he told his uncle that Eddie was a hero
What I love about eddie is he is being true to himself. He doesn't do what he does because he thinks it's cool, he does it because he enjoys it! He plays DnD even though most kids think its weird. He acts playful and crazy not because its a trend, but because it really is his personality. He doesn't act tough and strong, he knows to himself that he isn't a hero type. Everything he does is the true reflection of himself! Even in his last breath, he never stopped being himself. Eddie probably saved alot of people even before vecna. He saved alot of bullied and rejected kids from their loneliness. Eddie is a true hero.
Hey he was left in the upside down, while it may seem sad, think about how badass it would be if Eddie came back as a soldier of the Mind Flayer his guitar leading the charge of demo-beasts, and he comes through the gate playing something like Stranger in a Strange Land or Power Slave by Iron Maiden
@@stevel7798 agreed but the “i didnt run this time” thing annoyed me lol, he already had his hero moment, stopping to face the bats instead of continuing to distract them on his bike was just idiotic and made no sense. was just a dumb way of killing the character:/
@@billaniii Yeah that bugged me too. He should have been a permanent addition to the cast. But I guess you never know who the fans resonate with while you're filming.
i feel like they were considering him or steve, considering how they were both older brother figures to dustin, but i dont think people would forgive them for steve
It’s so rare that metalheads get a good portrayal in popular media and Eddie really proved himself to be very loveable and metal af. Rip Eddie, you broke the mold and made the metal community proud especially with this legendary performance
He was sweet, had a strong personality and was funny as hell. He became one of the most lovable characters in a well strablished show in a season and had a meaningful death. Cannot ask more, really...
“Made the metal community proud”. I understand that metal doesn’t get portrayed good but dude he played a not hard song, it’s badass but not anything special
@@vel1949 the point is not that its hard the point was that this is what a metalhead would have learned when it came out. If you think metal is only represented through complexity then you're just full of shit.
@@ReginaCopado uuuhhh....he was still selling drugs to kids and about to be a drop out. I think that's the usual cliche used for metalheads. I'll be impressed when they deviate from that. I loved the scene but it's not that special
Dustin isn't lying when he says "most metal ever!" Eddie Munson just played Master of Puppets in a dark alternate dimension full of deadly monsters and a creepy red storm. Nothing can beat that.
What makes Eddie even more of a badass is that in the timeline of the show Master Of Puppets had released only weeks prior to this! Chrissy died on the 21st, then Eddie immediately went on the run which means he only had 18 days to learn it since he didn’t have his guitar while on the run. Now that’s dedication to your favorite band.
@@shdwviper I’m not sure of the date that Eddie dies. But it’s confirmed that Chrissy was killed on the 21st and Eddie immediately went on the run. Which means he didn’t have his guitar that entire time until he grabbed it from his house in the upside down with Dustin just prior to this scene. Which means he definitely learned it by ear in 18 days. That’s just insane!
@@bendavidjohn Possibly, but this show stresses that it takes place in the 80’s and picks it’s songs carefully. I think they made sure with the timelines.
Best scene in the whole show. Not sure if even a scene in season 5 can top this. I mean how do you top playing heavy metal in an alternate dimension in order to attract a swarm of flying monsters
I never saw too much of this scene, I have had to watch it several times... I just cant stop the headbanging. Eddie freaking nailed that performance, NAILED IT.
I didn’t realize he said, “ Chrissy, this is for you.” That makes this scene even better. He’s affected by her death too, but unlike the jock bf, Eddie directs his efforts constructively. Not starting a freaking mob. Hawkins true hero.
Dustin is the most ride or die character of the show. All of season 3 he looked up to Steve so much he even said it "if you die, I die" and then here he looked up to Eddie enough to do it again and stay at his side even though death was creeping towards them so Eddie wouldn't be alone. God damn what an awesome scene.
@@jacobfletcher7201 im a guitarist, I pointed this out in our discord community that he actually had correct finger placement, whether he was actually playing it or not don't know.
OMG, I sobbed through the entire scene from the point where Eddie decided to turn the bats' attention on himself all the way through until past the point where he died. Then, later in the episode, I sobbed again when Dustin was talking to Eddie's uncle and told him Eddie died a hero. I'm even getting choked up just typing this 😭
@trunx1234 you didn't have to be an ass but here your are. You gain nothing for being mean. I gain nothing for calling you out but someone had to say it.😅
According to the Duffer brothers, yes. In an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the writers/creators/directors confirmed that Eddie Munson is gone, and he's not coming back. Actor Joseph Quinn, too, isn't holding on to any hope that he'll return for Season 5. So just pray he’ll be in season 5
I 100% agree this goes down as one of my favorite scenes of the series and possibly one of my favorite scenes of all time. it's going to be hard for anything to be more badass than Master of Puppets against red lightning and bats in a crazy apocalyptic world
Fun fact: Eddie didn't actually die from those bats, it was actually his back snapped from carrying the entire season Edit: I know everybody was great this season, to the people who took this comment quite literally, I was merely being hyperbolic for fun. No disrespect to the other great actors and characters intended.
I’m Gen X and I took my kids to the Pantera and Metallica show last night in Dallas. My kids are 22, 12, and 9, and they’ve been raised around metal so they knew most everything played but when they played Master of Puppets I watched little kids jam out and sing along and it made me so happy to see these newer generations feeling it. Thank you Stranger Things for helping keep metal alive 🤘🏻
Not one character should give the vibes of being permanent. In a show where every season is dangerous they should put their characters in danger. Although I would’ve rather them killing off someone from the main cast since season 1 since it would’ve been more impactful and it would’ve given one of their best characters more than a season to shine.
Honestly I think his death was easily foreshadowed and seen by the fans BUT he was immortalized like someone else said here. Now when I think of Stranger Things this scene and his death will be with me. The man was running for his life since like episode 1 but he finally decided to do something brave and yeah he died but he died knowing he helped save the day.
Honestly, while his death was sad, what was he going to do if he made it out alive, everyone thought he was the one killing all of the teens. Heck, even afterwards, everyone blamed his "cult" for the "earthquake" so he was screwed regardless. Honestly I think him dying was the best possible option for what could have happened to him because he died a hero rather than a coward.
Honestly, This was perfect! Think about it, Everyone will know who he is, what he did, and how he ended, A true metal head. The kind of folks who run to danger like its a slumber party, that’ll take meaning of “Having balls” 30 levels up because these kinda folks are not the average joes hell even gangsters show them proper respect because being an OG is nothing like a rockstar we all know it. and Eddie Munson is the prime example of WHO THEY ARE. Legends withen a few moments
@@PrincessZelda_is_My_Side_Chick These two along with imo Eleven closing the gate are the best epic scenes in the series, but there's also a few of the smaller just characters talking moments that I would say are just as good.
ehh i low key was gona agree with u untill i read some comments and watched it more carefully even gave netflix some props then the painfull truth hit and after all its still netflix and best thing they do is eff things up lol yeah the finger movements and were hes "hiting" the strings are on the curect frets and all but if u look closely at his picking hand thats what gives it away at 0:38 hes not playing it but i will give it to him one of the best fakes a show has used dude actually bothered to learn the notes but it is james hetfield even someone that plays guitar it wold take them atleast half a year of playing to even be able to play master of puppets at half the tempo unles they some kind of prodigy lol
@@_boreklipogaca like the first part till he got to the galops seems hella real cuz even the tempo was slower then the original thats what made me think it was real cuz of the slower tempo but ones it got to the 38 sec mark and i looked at his picking hand im like ok not real but he did bother to learn the notes cuz the fingers are on the right strings and the right frets but unless you have some time playing guitar ur not going to get those down strokes at tempo ... low key that song is the staple for any guitarist learing how to down pick its like the holy grail of down picking if u can play that at tempo with just down strokes then u can play anything lol
Agreed, the whole season was just so good. I'm not a huge fan of ST but this season got me hooked. This scene in particular is so good it made me get Avengers endgame vibes.
He didn’t play it sorry to break it to you. They had a real guitarist, he learned some of the finger motions to look authentic but he didn’t actually play
@@davidmejias4129 in an interview he said that actually a good chunk of it was actually him playing. he used to play guitar growing up and its not too hard of a song to learn when you know how to play
The producer's nailed this. Master of puppets released 1986, same year as this season takes place. Eddie character being the type of guy to obsess with Metallica and would have been practicing that song non-stop. The lyrics literally describe vecna. And that shot with Eddie in the upside down shredding is spine chilling. MOST METAL EVER
I had expected Raining Blood by Slayer, also released in 1986 and would’ve been an equally great fit, but I think that came out later in the year. So I was stoked they picked Master of Puppets. I’m not sure they’d go as heavy as Slayer in a universally popular tv show like this either unfortunately, Metallica is more accessible to the mainstream. This is still one of the most metal scenes I’ve ever seen.
The actor that plays Eddie said that the script was written with this song in mind, so maybe they created Vecna's personality in a way that would conform to the lyrics of this song
Even better again master of puppets was released on march 3rd 1986 and this season is based in late march 1986 meaning Eddie only had a few weeks to learn the whole song
Props to the Duffer brothers for writing Eddie. I grew up in the 80's and knew lots of dudes who dressed punk and metal. They were looked down on by most people but if you ever got to know them they had hearts of gold
This scene just described my whole last summer. One of my favorite scene in all of Stranger Things. I bet nothing in Stranger Things 5 will beat this scene.
@@angelomagaletta9868 Nice to know you're illiterate. He means Dustin tells Eddie he only has 20 seconds until the bats are too close, not learning a song in 20 seconds.
The scene where he’s tells Dustin to “never change” is what gave away he was going to die. Foreshadowing at its finest. R.I.P. to the absolute Legend Eddie Munson 🤘🏼
As soon as he said that, my husband said, "Yep. He's dead." I didn't want to admit it, but as a writer, I knew that he was probably right! The entire time I just sat there sadly waiting for his demise....
Eddie did this to avenge Chrissy’s death, help his friends and save other residents Hawkins from Vecna's rain of terror. And he did it, he truly avenged her death and saved everyone.
@@sammyofficial1 Songs got leaked early back then, just like they do today. MoP was recorded at the end of 85, so he actually would have had a couple months probably.
Like we knew it was gonna happen since he was gonna be wanted for murder regardless but goddamn did i just wish there was a happy ending for him instead of what happened😭😭
Man, the Duffer Bros and everyone behind Season 4 just knocked it out of the park. Max's Running up that Hill scene and Eddie slaying Master of Puppets under a red lightning storm in an alternate dimension might be the two best things I have ever witnessed in a TV show.
"I think you're asking me to go to Mordor with you." Eddie didn't just go to Mordor, he played a kickass concert in Mordor and went out a hero and a legend!
"Chrissy, this is for you. YAH!" That little battle cry before he hits the first shred is just delicious. Goosebumps everytime. Eddie finally reasserted dominance as the games DM in this moment. * Guys....I bought a guitar, amp and cables lol. It's on. Eddie legit inspired me.
I SCREAMED when he started Master of Puppets!!! The most metal scene I've ever watched, ever. We are all crushed by his death, but I think they did him justice with such a badass send off 🤘🤘
@@atgimm2090 You literally don't know him, how do you know which songs have he listen to? Oh, I see, you're just looking for attention, well I'm sorry for break your bubble, but you ain't getting that here.

Such a hero! Just like Bob.

@cameroncalger8724 he was, but I definitely got the sense that he was crushing on her. I mean look at him, trying to impress her by talking about his nand.
Let’s take a moment to really think about how awesome Eddie really is: Season 4 takes place in Spring of 1986. Master Of Puppets was released just before Spring in 1986. This means that Eddie learned and mastered this, one of the most difficult down picking songs ever, in a couple months. And he played it perfectly under all that pressure. Most. Metal. Ever.
absolutely love the context! thank you!
It actually came out 3 weeks before season 4
Without tabs
Love this!
Poor guy wasn't around to hear Rust In Peace. He would've loved it
Being a guitar player, it's typically pretty easy to spot when somebody is faking it for a movie. It's cool to know Joseph actually knows what he's doing. It makes the scene that much more badass.
Did he actually play it?
If you watch interviews he did play it, he played the guitar when he was young.
@@ericagibson9814 not true, one of the guys from Metallica son actually played the solo… Joseph said hes a guitarist, but not a metal guitarist in an interview about the scene
Robert Trujillo’s son is the one who is actually playing the solo
@@kamoflawedhawg535 He actually "played" the song though. What they did was have Joseph play the song and they dubbed the son playing over it. Because Joseph goes note for note with the song as it's played. If you know how to play the song you can watch him play it just fine in the show.
So glad Eddie got to do the thing he loved in some of his last moments, truly an amazing character
This scene gives me unreal chills. Truly, the best executed character of the whole show.
Same i got chills this is the best scene ever
executed.....nice pun
He's blatantly coming back as kas
Negative every single character on the show is equally amazing it's just he is the coolest no argument there but make no mistake no one's the best they all are that's what makes the show so great.

@@Coclroach bring back Bob while they're at it got dangit
@@Coclroach he’s fully dead. They’ve confirmed he’s not coming back.
What I love about eddie is he is being true to himself. He doesn't do what he does because he thinks it's cool, he does it because he enjoys it! He plays DnD even though most kids think its weird. He acts playful and crazy not because its a trend, but because it really is his personality. He doesn't act tough and strong, he knows to himself that he isn't a hero type. Everything he does is the true reflection of himself! Even in his last breath, he never stopped being himself.
Eddie probably saved alot of people even before vecna. He saved alot of bullied and rejected kids from their loneliness.
Eddie is a true hero.
A true Metal Head doesn't care two shits of what others think. LOL
I love this
Im recommendin you guys band Treat and their latest album Endgame, it is very melodic rock rooted in 80's. Awesome album:)
Eddie may have been a hero, but you died to save us from a shitty ending Night King :(
Your death was pretty crud ngl..
Props to Stranger Things for giving us a fictional metalhead who isn't either a violent sociopath or a comically clueless idiot.
They gave us what a real metal head is, truly compassionate
Absolutely no, you are sociopath
Meh...He still was the misfit that was failing school. It's still the typical cliche
My dude played like his life depended on it... which it literally did😢😢😢 so metal.. felt like a rock concert in Valhalla
@Misinfotainment about the level of jason. Ready to torture children because they might have information you want.
This scene is a masterpiece, completely flawless 🎸
Eddie was a one season character, but by God did they make him a legend. Probably one of my top 3 characters over the whole series, easily.
Hey he was left in the upside down, while it may seem sad, think about how badass it would be if Eddie came back as a soldier of the Mind Flayer his guitar leading the charge of demo-beasts, and he comes through the gate playing something like Stranger in a Strange Land or Power Slave by Iron Maiden

It’s so rare that metalheads get a good portrayal in popular media and Eddie really proved himself to be very loveable and metal af. Rip Eddie, you broke the mold and made the metal community proud especially with this legendary performance
He was sweet, had a strong personality and was funny as hell. He became one of the most lovable characters in a well strablished show in a season and had a meaningful death. Cannot ask more, really...
“Made the metal community proud”. I understand that metal doesn’t get portrayed good but dude he played a not hard song, it’s badass but not anything special
@@vel1949 the point is not that its hard the point was that this is what a metalhead would have learned when it came out. If you think metal is only represented through complexity then you're just full of shit.
Proud??ahahahahahaha it’s a movie he’s not dead for real🤣🤣🤣 the comunity proud lol
@@ReginaCopado uuuhhh....he was still selling drugs to kids and about to be a drop out. I think that's the usual cliche used for metalheads. I'll be impressed when they deviate from that. I loved the scene but it's not that special
Can’t wait to hear him shout “Flame On!”
Nah, needs to be Stairway To Heaven, ain’t no guitar store clerk gonna stop him from playing!
Dustin isn't lying when he says "most metal ever!"
Eddie Munson just played Master of Puppets in a dark alternate dimension full of deadly monsters and a creepy red storm. Nothing can beat that.
Red storm or red tunder?🤣🤣🤣🤣
With a guitar that exists in the dark dimension
The fact that the time this happened Eddie had under a month to learn the Song, makes Him even more metal
Eddie shredded in Hell!
Bitting off one of the Upside Down bat’s head just like what Ozzy Osborne did in 82 woulda been the icing on the cake lol
What makes Eddie even more of a badass is that in the timeline of the show Master Of Puppets had released only weeks prior to this! Chrissy died on the 21st, then Eddie immediately went on the run which means he only had 18 days to learn it since he didn’t have his guitar while on the run. Now that’s dedication to your favorite band.
is that confirmed?
eddie says "he graduates in a month" (may)
master of puppets came out march 3rd.
which means sometime in april.
@@shdwviper I’m not sure of the date that Eddie dies. But it’s confirmed that Chrissy was killed on the 21st and Eddie immediately went on the run. Which means he didn’t have his guitar that entire time until he grabbed it from his house in the upside down with Dustin just prior to this scene. Which means he definitely learned it by ear in 18 days. That’s just insane!
@@shdwviper btw, I fixed my original post too! It was slightly off😂
@@disturbedpyro4511 It's not insane - it's just a plot hole that they didn't notice :p
@@bendavidjohn Possibly, but this show stresses that it takes place in the 80’s and picks it’s songs carefully. I think they made sure with the timelines.
Best scene in the whole show. Not sure if even a scene in season 5 can top this. I mean how do you top playing heavy metal in an alternate dimension in order to attract a swarm of flying monsters
I completely agree. I’ve rewatched it 30 times
You don’t. You just can’t
This scene and Max’s scene in Dear Billy are iconic!
Max's scene was also superb. And the long multiple-shots hospital scene from season 3 episodes 5 and 6 was also really great
Play death metal in an alternate demension
I never saw too much of this scene, I have had to watch it several times... I just cant stop the headbanging. Eddie freaking nailed that performance, NAILED IT.
I didn’t realize he said, “ Chrissy, this is for you.” That makes this scene even better. He’s affected by her death too, but unlike the jock bf, Eddie directs his efforts constructively. Not starting a freaking mob. Hawkins true hero.
Just a great dude. UGHHHHHA!
Jason just used the other tragedies for attention for the basketball team. He was an awful person.
I also agree with the show lol?
Yes you are awesome ❤️🌹🥰🤗
If Chrissy and Eddie got together than Jason would probably have Chrissy burned at the stake as a witch
Dustin is the most ride or die character of the show. All of season 3 he looked up to Steve so much he even said it "if you die, I die" and then here he looked up to Eddie enough to do it again and stay at his side even though death was creeping towards them so Eddie wouldn't be alone.
God damn what an awesome scene.
If I had a friend like Henderson I couldn’t be stopped
"Creeping Death" huh?

According to the Duffer brothers, yes. In an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the writers/creators/directors confirmed that Eddie Munson is gone, and he's not coming back. Actor Joseph Quinn, too, isn't holding on to any hope that he'll return for Season 5. So just pray he’ll be in season 5
you need to build your next hearth with some fire retardant materials. try stone or brick.
I 100% agree this goes down as one of my favorite scenes of the series and possibly one of my favorite scenes of all time. it's going to be hard for anything to be more badass than Master of Puppets against red lightning and bats in a crazy apocalyptic world
Fun fact: Eddie didn't actually die from those bats, it was actually his back snapped from carrying the entire season

I’m Gen X and I took my kids to the Pantera and Metallica show last night in Dallas. My kids are 22, 12, and 9, and they’ve been raised around metal so they knew most everything played but when they played Master of Puppets I watched little kids jam out and sing along and it made me so happy to see these newer generations feeling it. Thank you Stranger Things for helping keep metal alive 🤘🏻
I went to that one! Saw a few folks dressed like Eddie! Loved that show
I was there too! It was my first Metallica show and it did not disappoint!
Eddie made every guitarist's dream come true, playing at the end of the world
Eddie is such a metal god that he played the drums and vocals too.
He sure did
Even facing death, this dude was jamming hard and feeling it. I'm pissed they killed him off.. He should've been a permanent character.
Not one character should give the vibes of being permanent. In a show where every season is dangerous they should put their characters in danger. Although I would’ve rather them killing off someone from the main cast since season 1 since it would’ve been more impactful and it would’ve given one of their best characters more than a season to shine.
Honestly I think his death was easily foreshadowed and seen by the fans BUT he was immortalized like someone else said here. Now when I think of Stranger Things this scene and his death will be with me. The man was running for his life since like episode 1 but he finally decided to do something brave and yeah he died but he died knowing he helped save the day.
Honestly, while his death was sad, what was he going to do if he made it out alive, everyone thought he was the one killing all of the teens. Heck, even afterwards, everyone blamed his "cult" for the "earthquake" so he was screwed regardless. Honestly I think him dying was the best possible option for what could have happened to him because he died a hero rather than a coward.
Totally agree!!!
Honestly, This was perfect! Think about it, Everyone will know who he is, what he did, and how he ended, A true metal head. The kind of folks who run to danger like its a slumber party, that’ll take meaning of “Having balls” 30 levels up because these kinda folks are not the average joes hell even gangsters show them proper respect because being an OG is nothing like a rockstar we all know it. and Eddie Munson is the prime example of WHO THEY ARE.

@@zaited.x.dahlia8788 there is a video of him practicing this song so he did learn it 🤣🤣
@@_boreklipogaca like the first part till he got to the galops seems hella real cuz even the tempo was slower then the original thats what made me think it was real cuz of the slower tempo but ones it got to the 38 sec mark and i looked at his picking hand im like ok not real but he did bother to learn the notes cuz the fingers are on the right strings and the right frets but unless you have some time playing guitar ur not going to get those down strokes at tempo ... low key that song is the staple for any guitarist learing how to down pick its like the holy grail of down picking if u can play that at tempo with just down strokes then u can play anything lol

@@Rx_is_the_goat I care
The producer's nailed this. Master of puppets released 1986, same year as this season takes place. Eddie character being the type of guy to obsess with Metallica and would have been practicing that song non-stop. The lyrics literally describe vecna. And that shot with Eddie in the upside down shredding is spine chilling. MOST METAL EVER
Literally when I hear the guitar I was like perfect song for vecna
I had expected Raining Blood by Slayer, also released in 1986 and would’ve been an equally great fit, but I think that came out later in the year. So I was stoked they picked Master of Puppets. I’m not sure they’d go as heavy as Slayer in a universally popular tv show like this either unfortunately, Metallica is more accessible to the mainstream. This is still one of the most metal scenes I’ve ever seen.
The actor that plays Eddie said that the script was written with this song in mind, so maybe they created Vecna's personality in a way that would conform to the lyrics of this song
Even better again master of puppets was released on march 3rd 1986 and this season is based in late march 1986 meaning Eddie only had a few weeks to learn the whole song
Agreed like without a doubt one of my favorite TV show scenes of all time now. not just in stranger things, of literally all time
Props to the Duffer brothers for writing Eddie. I grew up in the 80's and knew lots of dudes who dressed punk and metal. They were looked down on by most people but if you ever got to know them they had hearts of gold

* Guys....I bought a guitar, amp and cables lol. It's on. Eddie legit inspired me.
I replayed the yell probably 5 times before moving on with the rest of the video
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS... | IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL !
Saaaame here!
I never heard the yell until you pointed it out 😳 wow
He said that because the song that he played was denouncing the the harmful effect of drugs
I listened to the song everyday but, its just not enough without these clip. He's officially icon of this songs
I SCREAMED when he started Master of Puppets!!! The most metal scene I've ever watched, ever. We are all crushed by his death, but I think they did him justice with such a badass send off 🤘🤘

Probably the only metallica song you know
@@atgimm2090 Don't gatekeep 80s metal, bro. It's cringe.
Damn straight!! METALLICA!!!! 🤟🏽
@@atgimm2090 You literally don't know him, how do you know which songs have he listen to? Oh, I see, you're just looking for attention, well I'm sorry for break your bubble, but you ain't getting that here.
The “Chrissy this is for you”. Completely melted my heart… Rest in peace Eddie Munson
Peace *
He coming back you’ll see
Rest in pieces
@@christianayala1850 Like Billy did? Right? No one is coming back...
@Synerix You Sure
"20 seconds until the bat demons attack!"
Plenty of time to bust out a solo. Magnificent.
🤟🤟🤟
They were technically 9 seconds late if he really had 20 seconds left to play the solo as the solo is about 29 seconds long
@@ortegalovesgaming2040 I'm guessin the demon bats respected how fuckin metal the whole thing was and let him finish before trying to eat his face.
@@grimmcrag8715 big facts its why they came in the first place, they only attacked cause they stopped playing
Most....metal.... EVER!!!!🤘🤘
The fact that Eddie's actor Joseph Quinn actually knew how to play guitar and played this makes it even more badass, the most metal scene ever.
Totally. I play and was like holy shit he’s actually playing it!
He has a guitar playing double, sorry to break it to you
Most of song is original and I heard that the son of Robert Trujillo (the current bass player from Metallica) played the extra guitar parts
@@fewtch2273 the double only played the solo, the rest is Joseph still.
Nailed it
Watching the episode I was thinking "man Master of Puppets suits sooooo good", Netflix responded better than Santa
