This country needs more videos like this. This shit unites us rather than everything else I see, which divides us. The fact that she has the open mind to appreciate this type of music is also really cool to see. You guys definitely just got a new fan \m/
Thank you🤗
✊🏾🤘🏾💜
Totally agree!
Metal heads stick together like no one else!
Man on the point.
I couldn't agree more. United we stand 🤘
There is not one bad song on this album
It's that dreaded feeling when your top 3 songs are from this album (RTL) but then numbers 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11 are all from this other album (MOP). How do you even decide?!?!?!?!
Nope. Not one.
I remember the very first time listening to this album when it came out (on cassette, on my Sanyo walkman knockoff) when I FIRST heard The Thing That Should Not Be, It felt like my soul was forcefully ripped from my body....never was the same...
There's not one "good" song on the album. They're all classics.
Every song is a classic on the first 4 albums, that's why Metallica are the best there is and has ever been in metal,
Yeah, can't wait for the "One" reaction because I do believe it's one of the greatest songs ever written.
Yeah that songs number 1
Nah dude frantic and st anger ;)
@@h0wt0b3salty8 frantic ain't even half bad too, the snare gets pretty hard to bear at times, especially at roll fills. But it's pretty good for early 2000s metallica
YESSSSSSSS
St. Anger doesn't COMPARE to One. I hope that was a joke.
It's always a pleasure to see someone "experience" early Metallica. Not listening, Experiencing...
Ride the Lightning made me a metalhead. Fight fire with fire. I almost broke down when they played it live the second time they came to my country.
16 years old. Battery. Never heard anything like it before. I will never forget that moment in my life.
Metallica's Master Of Puppets the first heavy metal album preserved by US Library of Congress.
😮
wrathfang, if that is true, that is awesome!
It's Thrash Metal.. Metallicas first Heavy Metal song is Sad But True, because it's, wait for it, heavy. Thrash songs are fast. Despite so many places getting it wrong, they're still a Thrash Metal band.
@@Masterfighterx incorrect. for whom the bell tolls.
@@hicow6075 So when James asks ''Do you want heavy!?'' why isn't it Tolls then? Tolls is a slower song, but I don't think of it as a heavy metal song. Sad on the other hand..
Holy shit dude! You got it right where no other reaction channel has yet. Battery and MOP back to back. Well done!
The bass only versions of these songs are a must thanks-th-cam.com/video/vvSXC5sCabs/w-d-xo.html
@@ph1losopher you mean regardless of them losing Cliff .I want you to now go listen to battery bass only, I will too so we can make a party of it cheers
Try sanatarium into master of puppets the ending of one is the beginning of the other
The year was 1993 when I turned 16 years old and that would be the year when everything would change. I was big into rap at the time, but I did grow up listening to Metallica throughout my childhood. But even though I grew up listening to Metallica, they definitely weren't my go to for the kind of music I loved.
My first car was a 1987 Grand Am and I had a decent stereo system (two 12-inch subs and other mids and highs) in it. My best friend (a metal head and still my best friend today) and I would cruise around in my car into the wee hours of the night mostly listening to my rap and hip-hop music. That must had been torture for him because I don't think he really liked that kind of music at all, but in my mind, that kind of music was the best kind to play on a stereo like mine. But little did I know...
I ended up upgrading my sound system in the Grand Am to six 12-inch subs as well as 16 other speakers making up all the mids and highs (22 speakers in all). This required taking the backseat out and having a wall of speakers installed (all the amps took up most of the trunk). After the upgrade was complete, it was time for another night of cruising and listening to music with my best friend. However, this time, my friend brought his CD case with him. We headed down the road and he loaded up the Metallica album (the one often referred to as the Black album) . He selected Wherever I May Roam, I tweaked the EQ, and turned it up...way up! I had heard that song before, but never on a high-end stereo system. If you're familiar with the song, then you know about the drums in the beginning and then the bass that kicks in. Let me just say "holy sh!t!" I had never tried drugs before, but when the sounds from twenty-two speakers screamed to life from a wall just inches away from my head, it was like a drug had instantly hit me full force! My friend and I looked at each other right after the bass kicked in and in that very moment, I was converted to one of Metallica's biggest fans.
Now it's 2019 and I've never been without some kind of decent stereo system and it's all because I have to listen to my Metallica loud and with great sound quality. So that's my story, but I will add that this was my story about becoming a fan of Metallica. I own all their music, but I don't consider myself to be a "metal head" because other than Metallica and a select few other bands, I never really liked a lot of the other metal stuff out there. Metallica just resonates with me more than a lot of the other stuff. I'm sure there are people who would say that I'm missing out (and I very well might be), but Metallica is my drug of choice.
Love the channel, keep up the good work, and you two take care.
Respectfully,

This was the same year I went from a preppy chick to a metal head. This song right here started it. I remember losing my mind because I'd never heard anything like it in my life (they didn't play metal on the raido back in the day), and I fell in love! Thanks to the chick that took me over to some boy's house that she liked, and to the boy who played this for us. Ya'll changed my life that day
“What a way to end a song!......”
LOL!.... Nope, INTERLUDE!

5th period Shopclass
Friday’s were cool. We could listen to music. So one Friday I wheel in a tv/vcr cart from the library. I pop in a VHS. I make everyone sit.
On comes the official video for “ONE”. The look on their 13 year old faces was Priceless!
Never the same after that experience.
Metal head was born!!!
I'm 26, born in Russia. In the mid nineties the craze was 80's metal, so I grew up on a nice mix of Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, KISS, Iron Maiden, Priest, and most importantly the Scorpions. So I was technically a metalhead from birth. However, my memory of that holy shit moment came in seventh grade when I heard Trivium's Ascendancy for the first time. It all started there. I do want to say that Metallica is just a classic band. No matter how varied, creative, and awesome new metal is, any time Master of Puppets comes on, its time to drop everything and rock the hell out. Peace and love from Russia you two. I love your channel :)
✊🤘
Same here, and 🤘
I'm also 26 and my experience with music sounds very similar to yours 🤘
@@Derntootin looking through your liked music, I can see that. Heavy Devy is in there :3
@@screaminggallery771 Oh yes. Love me some Heavy Devy!
YOU NEED TO LET HER WATCH CLIFF'M ALL
I knew she was gonna cry! We all do! So good!
Hey wolf and sistah, I've been following you for about 6 months now and I need to share something. Wolf.... being a person who at 14 heard metallica for the first time, master of puppets also, 1988. It changed my life. Forever. And the way you take the time to explain metallica is something no other channel but yours does. And that's because of you wolf. Yes to experience tie music is great but it was when it came out. Metallica isn't just music. And I know sistah appreciates the back story. More ppl would if they really knew metallica story. Love you guys. Thank you
Thanks 🤗✊🤘
Well that makes my fastest click ever. Time to pop some popcorn, settle in and pretend I'm a teenager again!
🤣
Wolf is right I think a lot of Metallica fans love Ride the Lightning.. its my favorite album too. As for Master of Puppets, its definitely a masterpiece and is considered by a lot of ppl; whether they like Metallica or not as one of the greatest if not the greatest metal albums of all time. This album influenced 90% of the metal bands that followed, and is recognized by their peers and even older bands. Even though this album came out before I was born, its definitely one of the albums that introduced me to metal. Even though I knew a few black album songs before from radio and stuff, Master of Puppets is the one that grabbed my attention. Since I was in high school in the early 2000's metal wasnt at the forefront of music at first. Hip hop was in the spotlight with the coming up of Eminem and I, like most kids back then was into that. Bands like Slipknot, System of a Down and Avenged Sevenfold were the metal bands of my generation that brought metal back in the spotlight and made me dig further into their influences which made me discover older stuff like Pantera and made me open my mind to newer metal bands that came out in the 2000s. This is a great reaction to a classic, you guys never disappoint.
✊🤘
It’s Hetfield’s vocal sound. RtL was the best James has ever sounded.
RtL is an absolute classic among classics, but I've always preferred the dry, tight sound of MoP to the reverb-drenched RtL. I also feel like RtL has a glaring weak spot in Escape, and I've never been a fan of Trapped Under Ice. All that said, it's still neck-and-neck, and I can totally see why 90% of people enjoy RtL more. Escape and Trapped Under Ice aside, the other 6 songs are unquestionably some of the finest metal songs ever
I became metalhead on 8th February 1988. It was Iron Maiden 's Powerslave
Interesting..... for me it was Iron Maiden's Number of the beast..same year though!!
For me it was in 96 and hearing life is peachy by Korn. They were my gateway into this amazing world that is heavy metal
Lol, there is something cathartic seeing someone feel the way you felt the first time you heard a song. The quote "The shortest distance between two people is a song" really comes true here!!
I agree with you on the Ride the lightning album best album and what a lot of people who just got into Metallica like during the Black album and after fail to realize those first three albums they were kids when they wrote that they were all in their early teens and early twenties and look at the music and the lyrics that they came up with same thing with Megadeth meaning lyrics with substance I mean I love Slayer venom Exodus and of course mercyful Fate but look at the time the era and their age changing music history forever great reaction and love the cliff in the background and the clips thanks love you both have a kick-ass New year
My first major introduction to Metallica when I was a kid was One. It blew me away and from then on a went into their back catalogue getting all their albums on vinyl and eventually having to replace them all due to wear.
Legit I LOVE how into it she was during the solo in Battery This has been my fav band since 1991, my first concert ever was Guns N Roses/ Metallica/ Faith No More in 1992 when I was 9 and my older cousin took me to the concert while "baby sitting" me when my parents were out of state, and just two weeks ago I saw Metallica for the 24th time on the final show of the tour in Cleveland and I absolutely love seeing someone hearing the old classics like this for the first time. Real talk I am so energized by this reaction vid and I feel a certain type of happiness seeing the (Metallica) family grow like this. This is exactly what the Metallica family is all about. Welcome to the family Sistah! As a sidenote, I got my father into the band around 1996, he love Sad But True, and we ended up seeing them a few times together between 1994 and 2001. He sadly passed away from cancer two days after Christmas in 2016, and my fondest memories with my dad were the times we saw Metallica together. It really hits me right in the heart when I see someone new get into the band like this, and literally brings tears to my eyes as it reminds me of how I got my father into the band that I love so much. I hope you two do many more Metallica reactions together.
There is nothing better than those first two songs on that album. The way it opens up and is just an onslaught. Its just so awesome.
Tony Iommi (the guitarist for black sabbath) invented metal. As a young man he lost the tips of two of his fingers in an accident at a sheet metal factory and because of that he had to drop tune his guitar and puts caps on his fingers to play it correctly. This is what gave us the more sinister sound of heavy metal. In a weirdly poetic way, metal created metal (an accident at a sheet metal factory created metal music) cool huh?
Just subscribed & am going from oldest to newest as often as i can. I love u guys reacting! Ive seen Metallica over 100 times, globally, since ‘81 (i was 6 first time!), & they have never disappointed! They are truly the greatest live band ever besides legends. 🖤
❤️✊🤘
The moment I became a metalhead was when my cousin put on the blizzard of ozz CD in '83 and "I don't know" started building up, then kicked in. It changed everything for me musically.
I remember a similar moment myself. I had been into Quiet Riot and Ozzy a little bit, but wasn't yet a confirmed metalhead when I was a young teen and first heard the brand new song (at that time), "One" on MTV (back when they actually played music). It's strange to me looking back that I didn't like it at first, but on the second time listening I was hooked. Then I got a copy of Master of Puppets shortly after and wore it completely out listening to it so many times. Thanks for bringing back some of my favorite memories, Wolf and Sistah! You guys are awesome! Thanks for taking us along on your journey.
Metallica was one of the first bands I listened to when I was getting into metal. Will always have love for them.
The album that got me into metal music was Master Of Puppets. Greetings from Poland - Smoku 1970
Cliffs contribution will sadly never be matched. You two are great, keep it up
I'm 40 years old. Never has anyone expressed their feelings about metallica so closely to my own. U nearly made a tear fall from my eye. 🤝thank you sir. And ma'am 😘
I'm 40 as well. How old were you when you got into MetallicA?
@@wickedwings7611 im 39, ive been hooked on Metallica since before i could talk, thank you much older brothers)
I know this is timely but... I'm 49 and have been into Metallica since I found out about Kill Em All in 1985. That was an eye-opener!
Definitely top of the thrash list. And I put Slayer second, Megadeth third and Anthrax fourth. And I completely agree Slayer and Megadeth could swap places.
Master of Puppets was the thing that made me a metalhead, I was in 4th grade, 10 years old, fuck this was something else...
I was In 3rd grade when I first heard ride the lightning and lived the band since
Jeez...These two songs changed everything for me too. Though I was in 8th grade, I was blown away. What a great time in music and thrash ruled! I so love Wolf's description of his first time hearing it (as it's so similar to my own) and seeing Sistah's first time and her appreciation for them is priceless. Thanks so much for another great video!
✊🤘
My Metal journey started when a friend of mine pulled me out of the after services chat at church and took me out to his parents' car. He says, "you've gotta hear this song!" He slides a clear plastic cassette into the player and turns the volume knob to 8. The speakers, quite simply, spoke to me, "Unta, Gleebin, Gloutin, Glowbin." LOVED IT!!!
A few weeks later, I was going through my Mom's records for something to listen to while I did my chores and found, Van Halen - 1984. INCREDIBLE!!!!
Between those two albums, I was hooked!!!!!
Skip to October 1988, a co-worker, knowing I'm a drummer, says, "you've gotta hear this band! The drum fills and the guitar fills are often in sync with each other and it's killer!" He puts in, ... and Justice for All. I have to admit, I didn't care for it. So then he played, Master of Puppets; I REALLY didn't care that either. I was more into Mötley Crüe, Tesla, and Guns-n-Roses. So he loans me his, Justice CD and says give it few listens. It took a while, but I finally came around to appreciate it and later became a huge fan. (Yes, I love Lars' playing)
Interestingly, I disliked Led Zeppelin for the longest time, until I became a Metallica fan. It was my love and understanding of Metallica that brought me around to understand and grow to love Zeppelin.
Thanks to my Mom and many friends over the years, music has been a constant companion through my whole life.
Metal Forever, Baby!!! 🤘🏼🔥🤘🏼🔥
RAWK ON! 😎
Interesting, did you ever figure out why it took you a while to come around? Did it seem less fun then what you were used to?
@George WolfKain, I've spent time thinking and having conversations about it. The general consensus among my friends was, "you tend to dislike that which you don't understand." I think that's partially true. As far as Metallica goes, the time changes, the tempo changes, and the odd juxtaposition between the vocal "melodies" and the song melodies were confusing.
What actually brought me around was, during my "forced" exposure to my friend's CD, I concentrated solely on what Lars was doing. Once I figured out his level of brilliance, the rest of the pieces fell together.
I then approached Zeppelin the same way, listening to what Bonham was doing first.
One might think, from this methodology that I'm melodically challenged or possibly tone deaf. Nothing could be further from the truth. So much so, that each one of my drums is tuned to a specific note, and the lead singer in my band says that I sing harmonies better than most people he's heard.
Now, Master of Puppets is one of my favorite songs to play on drums! 😎🤩 Followed closely by, Nobody's Fault But Mine. 😁
@@sean_b_drummer That makes sense, I'm always attracted to that odd non generic feeling sound, mainstream always turned me off so I guess there is a difference between the two that is more dramatic then I have considered before. This could explain a lot, thanks for sharing ✊🤘
@George WolfKain The funny thing is, now, I'm a huge TOOL fan. Definitely a band that is as far from "mainstream" as one can get.
Of course the common denominator is, a fantastically brilliant drummer.
Cheers, dude; and thanx for the chat.
I was at the last Cliff gig at Solnahallen in Stockholm....It was really hard to read the news after. Back in the days, they were the greatest band ever!
My first exposure to Metallica was as a 13-year old watching thru premiere of Enter Sandman on Headbanger's Ball. Changed my life, for real. I was so crazy for them I begged my mom to get me their album for birthday or Christmas. Bothered her to no end. Come time to open the package and it was Master of Puppets. I was so disappointed that it wasn't the one I knew. Felt like she ruined my gift. It didn't even have the same guy in the band. I conceded and went to bed quietly upset. I decided to pop the cassette into my player and put those headphones on. From the drop of the flamenco style acoustic to the very last note...I was blown away at what I heard. I played it twice back to back and got in trouble for staying up til 2am on a school night. 25 years later, the music still gets me and seeing Sistah react as a brand new lover of metal affects me in a deep, soulful way. Journey on, Sistah! \m/ \m/
Life's happy accidents ✊🤘
sistah is feeling the adrenalin!
this is the music you take to the gym for a good workout!
Wolf: As soon as Battery started I could see it in your eyes, your mind went BACK... exactly like mine did. Sistah: I LOVE LOVE LOVE how you react to music, you don't just listen to it you FEEL it! I'm so glad to have found your channel, I'm happy you chose to share your metal journey with us, NEVER change, Sistah! For me it was a friend introducing me to the Metallica Black Album, it was all downhill from there.
🤣✊🤘
I appreciate you☺🤗🤗🤗 Thank you for the beautiful message and sharing your experience😘💜✊🏾🤘🏾
Hell yeah , METALLICA !!! Greetings from Croatia !!!
Greetings ✊🤘
Battery in walkman and to listen Battery in the 80's, with inevitable bursts of laughter because it was so fresh, new and fast when compared to older school heavy metal.
Im 43 and still rockin like Dokken. Love Metallicas first four albums.
This is my favorite album I was a teenager when I listen to this and it don't get old
You simply can't go wrong with anything from MoP!! Great reaction as always, guys! Greetings from Argentina.
Aguante Argentina papá! Estamos por todos lados loco
Nico Simioni I been having with a mop I just got, what do you recommend? having some new tiles.
No importa que canal sea, si hay metal ahi estamos los argentinos!!!!
I was just thinking about this when I ran across some receipts for Quiet Riot, Twisted Sister, Ratt, Motley Crue I had in a drawer since '83, then when I heard Ride the Lightning and then Master of Puppets, I was sold on Metallica. MOP is my favorite album from Metallica and Death Symbolic or Human overall. I actually acquired a bass string from a friend of Cliff Burton and some other items that will go with me to the grave. Huge fan of Cliff. And a bit of trivia, Lars used Rick Allen's Ludwig Black Beauty snare drum used to make Pyromania on the MOP album.
Loved Quite Roit and Ratt ✊🤘
You have no idea how much Metallica, specifically this entire album, has changed my life. This brings back so much childhood memories. Loved how you were able to record Sistah’s reaction on back to back Metallica songs. Very ingenious idea. Keep it up!
I am right there with you wolf, I liked them from their start. I also think ride the lightning was their coming into their own. I am 48 now, and I remember when I heard this cassette for the first time. It was a friday after school, I played that album on my boom box BACK TO BACK all weekend!!! I had to buy it again after three weeks because I wore the first one out. Truly a masterpiece of music & a VERY fond memory😎😎😎😎😎
Like you, I'm a Sistah in her 40's. I have always been a headbanger. So much great music 🤘🏾 I listen to everything, but metal is my go to.....and I've met Lars, he was very nice.
When I found my true calling as a metalhead, I was already listening to Iron Maiden, Ozzy, Judas, ACDC but was looking for heavier, faster, more aggressive then one glorious evening in 1984 (15 y/o) I was at a friends house and heard Metallicas Ride the Lightning and Venoms At War with Satan. Admittedly I was a bit scared at first (especially Venom was very evil) but I was hooked...thrash was what I was all about. Not long after Slayer Reign in Blood came out...and they quickly became the best for me.
I LOVE THIS REACTION! Her face! She is just so happy to hear this incredible music! Reminds me of way back when...when I heard metal for the first time! The excitement of it, the thrill The wow!
Thank you so much for making me smile! Hitting that subscribe button!
ROCK ON! 🤘🤘🤘

You guys always make me smile.
Thank you for that.
Love your reaction videos.
Mmmmwwwaaahh!😘😘😘💜
What got me into metal was also Master of Puppets, but the S&M version, which was the first I heard. I was 14 when that album came out and when my brother showed it to me I was just so impressed. I have been listening to classical music since I was baby in my crib (my mother has told me that I was transfixed whenever I listened to it). I could have never imagined that metal and classical/symphonic music could be a match made in heaven. But they totally are. The Call of the Cthulu on that album was jawdropping but it was the interlude of Master of Puppets that won me over. It is so stunningly beautiful and it has so much power at the same time. I loved Sistah's reaction during that part because it reminded me of my own :)
PlugInKali I got into metal just because a show I liked had a metalica reference
I was gonna say, congratulations on punching above your weight bro. Sista is stunning. I mean this in the nicest possible way. Love you guys so far, I'm subscribing.
At age 11 I found FNM. Whilst I loved Metallica Mike Patton is the man.
And I weigh a lot so that's not easy to do lol
@@WolfKain lol😁
I love you guys! I became addicted to some reaction channels lately, but this one is maybe the best one I saw so far! I'm following you since yesterday, I saw a few videos and I will see as many I can. I love how passionate Wolf is about music and explaining it to Sistah, and on the other hand I love the fact that Sistah is so open and understanding :) You remind me of me and my wife, only my wife has a little less patience for me :D Anyway, my moment of becoming a metalhead, 12-13 years old, turn on tv and "Unforgiven" just started playing. Fell in love with Metallica in that exact moment! Love them ever since! :)

Mmmmwwwaaahhh!🤗🤗🤗😙💜✊🏾🤘🏾
Smashing through the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery!
Love y'all's videos and been enjoying the Metal Journey. It's great seeing someone experience these classics for the first time, and also giving an actual analysis and backstory/personal experiences with the songs in the way that you all do. Other react channels lose that level of personality because you don't get to see why and how the songs are important to them; and I think that's what sets you on a different level. Your videos feel like a joined experience rather than a "Let's Listen" approach, and I dig that.
As for me, my Metal journey also began with Metallica. My earliest Metal memories are of the Black album. I used to listen to it while riding around with my dad, who passed when I was 10. I was a kid in the late 80s and early 90s, so I didn't get a lot of Metal exposure back then. It was still a common idea that Metal was in some way a negative influence on kids; I find that rather archaic at this point. Of course, I later went on to experience the rest of Metallica's catalog. The Black Album isn't my favorite album of their's, but personally, it is their most important.
✊🤘
Stole "and justice for all" on casette tape when I was 15. That was my introduction to metallica. Hooked ever since.
Hell, yeah!!! Welcome back. Missed you guys reacting to old school metal.
The first 3 Metallica LPs truely changed the music history....after all these years,i can sing still all of their songs.....timeless experience !!!....MORE !!!
It took me a while to get this when it came to Master of Puppets. The lyrics say it all, but when you listen to the music, when you get to that interlude, picture how someone gets their fix when they're high from the drugs they just took. Then the bridge with "Master! Master!".. that's when you want to get your next fix but you're not getting it anymore. That high of what you're getting is an illusion. The solo is when you're crashing and aren't getting that fix anymore. Then you're back into telling the story about drug addiction. It's really heavy and REAL.
I heard One first, and primarily the video, which rather freaked me out, and I was 14 at the time, just learning to play guitar, as I was just getting into hard rock. A friend of mine then let me borrow Master of Puppets, in which lyrically I didn't get MoP, but I did like Battery. What got me was Orion. I was already a hard rock guy at the time, but this... this got me into metal, and ... holy crap, 30 years to the month!!! I've been a black guy who's a metalhead with no regrets.
Yes, that description is spot on ✊🤘
I have always been a fan of Metallica. When I hear them I have some strange feeling of satisfaction and content that I don't get with many other bands. I first got into them when I was about maybe 6 years old or so and my dad had the black album and I always listened to that then I got Metallica's Reload album for Christmas when it came out when I was 10 and I was hooked. When I stared almost listing to metal exclusively was when guitar hero 2 and rock band came out and I would contently search for more and more complex music to play and listen to through purchasing dlc, kinda like an addict getting into heavier drugs, and metal was the answer to that. Also around that time I started to play instruments, so in search for more complex music has helped me become a much better musician. Always in pursuit to quench my thirst for knowledge.
✊🤘
GREAT REACTION! I am 55 and have been a Metallica fan since day one.I had to have the record store order the album for me The excitement of you experiencing hearing MOP the first time imagine being a 20 year old metal head and putting the needle down and hearing the build up to "Hit The Lights" and then they just exploded. I knew right then and there I had found the music I had been looking and waiting for my whole life. MOP is my favorite album.I never tire of any Metallica.Play "Hit The Lights" for Sistah and tell her that was the first song they ever released on a record an album called Metal Massacre that was recorded by Brian Segal a collection of local bands and Metallica made the cut. Metallica for life folks!
✊🤘
I think the first Metallica song I heard was Fade to Black. Amazing!! But when I heard Kill’em All? Mind Blown. Hooked. Metallica! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
That album is genuinely my childhood! I have discovered Metallica at the age of 8/9 thanks to my cousin from Cracow who being on holiday brought up with him few cassettes (not original ones) and played Master and Garage Inc. for me. That was everything i needed. Metallica changed my life, stayed with me throughout the years and they still are with me till this day. They are in my veins. Haven't seen them live yet though unfortunately because of many reasons. As a MetalHead from small little (forgotten by the devil) Polish village haven't had a chance and couldn't afford to see them live. Now i hit 30, things has changed AND i'm going to see them playin' at Twickenham Stadium, London this summer from the Golden Circle standing pitch and i know this experience will be worth every penny i spent. Hail to Metallica! They literally defined me as a person and musician.
✊🤘
MoP still gives me chills! My favorite Metallica album by far! Listening from the beginning takes me back to when I was a kid. Awesome as hell!
Now I wanna hear The Thing that should not be! Lol
The moment I became a Metalhead was when I discovered Motörhead's Ace of Spades at 15yo. I've always been a gamer and one day there was this AMV of the song on World of Warcraft characters playing in a band. I went to look for the song itself and fell in love with the band and Metal itself and found myself. RIP Lemmy, you beautiful bastard!
I hadn't really listened to any Rock or Metal before and always looked weird when I heard songs or intros from G'n'R or any other band because I couldn't grasp the feeling it gives me now.
✊🤘
For me best album of history.........heavy...perfect solos........perfect melodys...all is incredible metallica my favorite band forever
Gotta say Wolfkain this was my metal cherry also in school jamming out great album 🤘🏻 rock on brother and sista love your reaction
The KINGS of Transitions !!!
And absolutely YES... Ride the Lightning is the Best album to me... the spirit of Metallica !!!
Regards & kiss from France...
Your Master of Puppets story is almost exactly like mine. For me, 11th grade automotive class with Mr. Kovach 1987. A friend brought a walkman and played Master of Puppets for me. From that very moment the song started playing, I was hooked on Metallica. I'm going to be 50 years old this year and still love it.
✊🏾🤘🏻
I think Master of puppets holds up just fine. I'm 24, nightwish was the 'first' metal that band that i got into (thanks dad). And MoP is definitely in my top 3 despite not having grown up with it.
Wolf's scholarly underpinnings and Sistah's honest, visceral reactions always bring me back to this channel.
🤗🤗🤗😙💜✊🏾🤘🏾
“Master...” (the song) still gives me goosebumps. Actually, I need to hear the entire album from beginning to end, whenever I listen to it. It’s the same with “Ride...”. These are the two benchmarks in metal albums. IMO
I think Master of Puppets was Metallica's epitome. It felt like the culmination of their first 2 albums: the upbeat tempo of the first album and the slight progressive elements of Ride the Lightning such as acoustic guitars in thrash (which was unheard of at that time). The songs in RTL were longer than their first and this builds on that.
Yep. Master of Puppets did it for me. I remember when I first heard it. Me and my sister got a ride with 2 brothers and they played it. I said, " WHO IS THIS?????" I was done with radio music. I was getting into a little Ozzy and Scorpions before, but this album had me hooked.Such epic albums cover to cover. I was 17.
Sistah is able to explore her deepest feelings... in all that different music styles can offer.... Sometimes I feel the music as deeply as Sistah does..... but she is able to experience it more often.... What a great gift to have.. : -)
Another great reaction.... and analysis!....
She said the drums are so good, so good. GIVE IT TO ME!!! 😆🤘😆🤘😆
Guys your energy is insane i really love your videos!! I remember when i first started listening to metal it was during a 4 day trip with school to thesalokiki( 2nd biggest city in greece) from athens.So the day before i had downloaded the first 4 metallica albums.The trip was aprox 6-7 hours and during that time i listened to all the albums and became addicted.Needless to say that trip was the best thing that happened to my music life
Mmmwwwwaaahhh!!! ♥
To me personally, this is by far the best Metallica album. Remember hearing it in 1990 2nd year in high school and also learning playing the drums for the first time. The rest was history...
Battery and Master of Puppets have bittersweet feelings for me. Both songs were what cemented me into Metallica, but they were also the first two songs I listened to with my ex. She had never heard these songs and she and I listened to them together. So yeah, now I can’t listen to these without feeling a slight pain in my chest whilst feeling inspired and energized too. Also, love your content. Keep it up.
Metallica is the greatest band of all time in my opinion. Followed them since mid 80s here in Ireland and bought my first album and justice for all when I was 10. Still listen to them every day. To me all albums up to and including the album the black album are their best albums.
Actually they did a recent poll across the world and almost everyone said Nickelback.. hahaha
I love your guys reaction channel, sistah I love how you explain your feelings off of the music and your emotions are worth the watch. Wolf I love how you give a breakdown of the song and tell meanings and interpretations you guys are awesome.
The camera looks great! I agree that Ride The Lightning is the best album but, like you, this is the first one I heard. This is the first hard metal I ever heard, in fact. The dreamy musical interlude in Master of Puppets is the part when the puppet is high.
Ride the Lightning is the one Metallica album that I ALWAYS come back to time and again.
Listening your memories of first hearing Metallica, brought back mine. I had the pleasure of seeing them in May of 1986. They changed my life. I never listened to music the same. Thank you so much.🤘🖤🤘🖤🤘🖤🤘😊🤘
I loved the sound of this album so much it took me 30 years to actually listen to the lyrics...
For me the beauty of master of puppets (the song) is that it's composed like the mind of an addict, it starts aggressive, like the addict just trying to find the next fix, then it goes into the mellow bit which is the addict while high, then it builds up a bit which is the comedown and the self realization and loathing that comes, then right back into aggression and looking for the next hit, which really backs up the lyrics
Ladies and gentleman, MetallicA
I wish there was a LOVE button instead of a LIKE button. Watching Sistah listen to Metallica is EPIC!
Awesome sound quality on these tracks - great double reaction. You've yet to react to Rush by the way - try Broon's Bane and the Trees for another double header.
Wolf, you brought back a lot of memories with the way you described listening to this in class. First time I heard Megadeth was very similar. That was an incredible few years of music.
Perhaps consider checking out some Trivium? One of their recent songs, Betrayer, has gotten a grammy nomination, which makes it worth a look, imo.
For me, Motorhead was my first Metal introduction. One of the guys I worked with as a teen introduced me to Overkill. The rest was history.
Welcome to the fold, Sistah! The world or metal is deep and you will find yourself discovering things you love deeply, and lots you won't like at all. Part of the fun is digging around and discovering talent where you never thought it existed. Enjoy, and again, welcome!!
Well said. I loved this album. My best friend committed suicide right before this was released. It brings back good and bad memories. I luckily had the chance to see Cliff play at Day on the Green in 85.
Sorry to hear that😔
This is the song that got me into Metal. My mom showed it to me when I was little and I've never been the same since then. And I knew she was gonna cry, I love it, the song is too deep, cuts right through your feelings and delivers an amazing message.
Btw, I can't wait anymore for her to react to more Symphonic Metal, like EPICA. And I so want her to react to "The Greatest Show On Earth" by Nightwish. It's a MUST to search for the lyrics for this one and watch it live in Finland. :D
Whoa trippy, I think I dreamed Deja Vu of watching the 2nd-3rd min of this vid several months ago.
Wow😀💜
Love love both of you very much, my brother and boyfriend have been educating me with metal for years and I love your reactions xxx 😘❤
Aaawww, thank you, Sunshine!🤗😘😘💜
Keep It Metal✊🏾🤘🏾
Master of Puppets is the Best - Their most aggressive angry with being Progressive and best story telling out of all of them - The songs DISPOSABLE HEROES and LEPER MESSIAH Give it the edge for me - just my style - RIDE THE LIGHTNING 2nd for me
There's not a bad song on the album. That's rare for any band. You can usually dislike atleast 1 song on almost any album.
First time I ever listened to metal was One when I was 13, so 12 years ago. I instantly found my type of music. all I had ever listened to before that was like Michael Jackson, the bee gees, Elvis, Elton John etc, because that was what my parents played. I started playing guitar because of Metallica. Long live the best heavy metal band ever.
I remember Sori bringing up an interesting interpretation about the melodic middle passage of MoP. She mentioned it being the relief when getting the much needed fix, which of course comes to an end and is followed by the heavy and hectic sound again, which then represents the addiction's negative effects on you.
Check out some more Opeth or maybe Insomnium if you want Sistah to cry ;)
It's called 'dynamics'.
I am not sure but I think i have read or herd james mention that it is suposed to show a time where he is trying to become clean but then falling back into adiction
@@strongbear88 not saying that's not wrong, and it could very well be true. A lot of people tend to interpret it as the first heavy part of the song is basically the addict trying to find that next high, get that drug of choice so they can get high. the interlude is based more on the addict finally being able to get that high and its that sense of bliss. Then as it ramps back up its that blissful high wearing off and your off to get your next high. But as the lyrics go, the second part is more about the drugs claiming yet another victim and the addict dying thus the devil laughing at the end of the song. its as if the devil (the master) is laughing at you as you die from your addiction.
It’s 1000% the high and withdrawal
That's basically how I interpret it but I can see how the melodic bit could also be the addict trying to come clean too, it works both ways I think
Over 500 comments 😊, this is what I mean as a metal family. Hope you and Wolf have a great weekend!
I appreciate you!😃🤗🤗🤗😘💜
Have a beautiful weekend🤓✊🏾🤘🏾
