I’M NOT CUTE I’M A BAD MOFO! - Komedie
More Metallica...More Jinjer....Pantera!!!!
Yes, yes and yes!
I second Pantera. Try Walk, cowboys from hell or !!DOMINATION!!
@@mr.durden6401 DOMINATION Live in Russia!
They're all good.
Dont forget Godsmack and Disturbed...
Imagine being a teen when this comes out. There's no internet, no cell phones, no PCs. Most radio stations would never play this at the time, or if they did it was after midnight on a Saturday in the special "adult songs only" hour. The only way to know about music like this was word of mouth, passing cassettes and flyers around. Good times!!
Exactly...I now have a 15yr old ..I try to explain to her about life back then.. Underground music scenes, going to clubs to catch new music and bands, because even college radio couldn't give you it all.
@@vampcatt To be fair even in the internet age there's a lot of underground music that only gets moved because of word of mouth. There's still bands out there that play local venues but don't get regional or national clout. There's bands who don't/can't tour but who release their music online (youtube etc) that have a core following but don't make it big or just do it "as a hobby", and a some that actually make it big and get labelled (Ghost etc).
Word of mouth still exists online, It's just called "sharing", and there's a load of good bands who don't get shared.
I was 14 when I first heard this and hadn’t really listened to metal just classic rock I was hooked instantly metal head for ever.
I had a friend bring this round to my house when I was maybe 11, along with Reign In Blood, Number of The Beast & Black Metal. All on vinyl 👌🏻
I was there in that time.
I believe the calm part in the song is when the user is high. Then the cravings come back. Saw them the first time in 90. Bunch of times since. Amazing live performances.
I always thought the slow part was the come down from the high myself
This! He gets his fix and fades out and then he starts to come to as it it speeds back up
Yes, then he say fix me, and for me that solo is another shot or sniff, that couses overdose. Sorry for bad english
@@Samurai_Stoner I think the slow part is the floating and euphoric feeling of being on it.... After that it goes to the crash.
@@krw73 that could be possible as well either one fits
The song plays out on purpose too. The intro is hard and heavy, before the drug. The middle part is the calm while high. The end is coming down and needing more. It’s a masterpiece.
💯% 👍 16:23🤟✌️🤟
I remember being young as shit when this album came out and loved it
Then in my late teens going down a bad path and fully understanding it
Then growing out of the bullshit
That’s not what that is. Somebody just made that up. It about them Harmonizing and creating beautiful music akin to classical(the interlude) under the influence of cliff who had studied music. He taught them to Harmonize.
It not about drugs
@@Ekunayo ahh you’re right. “Chop your breakfast on a mirror” is about eggs.
It seems to me that the Master is the drug itself. We are the puppets. I don’t have too much knowledge of Metallica, but this is in a league of its own. The Syncopated rhythms are phenomenal.
The Master is the drugs
Spot on my friend
Exactly what this song is about 👍
it about cocain
You don’t say….
I love the “Aha!” moment when reactors hear the, “Chop your breakfast on a mirror…” line and realize the song is about addiction 😁
Told from the point of view of the drug…
same
Seriously tho. I was waiting for that light bulb to come on. His expression delivered. 😆
But they miss the previous part about the Needle.
I actually LOL'd at that part
Master of Puppets is a literal masterpiece regardless of genre.
I love to watch people get their mind blown. Your reaction was amazing. It was like listening to it with a friend.
Happy you enjoyed :)
Hey, Man.
I am 55 years old. I bought this album (on casette) in 1986 when it came out. By the time it had dropped, I had already worn out my copies of their first two albums. Your reaction was not only genuine, it was the same as my reaction 37 years ago. It was like being struck by lightning and being hit in the head with a sledgehammer at the same time. Yet, somehow, bringing me emmence joy. Thank you for being respectful and open-minded to all genres of music. Art is art. Furthermore, to answer your question, yes, this IS what Metallica does to people.
Thanks again.
May God continue to bless you and your family.
-Ed
Same here!!! I just found all my old concert tickets, saw them only 4 times
No matter how you lost a copy one did not simply exist without a new one :D
The greatest metal album ever to grace the human race.
that's "Rust In Peace".
I like their second album better.
@@C_mao It's an amazing album! Call of Ktulu is my second favorite song by Metallica. Listening to Cliff mimic Cthulu.... magical.
I my opinion 35 years in "Master of Puppets" is their best overall. Not a bad track on the whole album. But "Ride the Lightning" is somehow my personal favorite. Those two have been neck and neck for around two decades now.
I can respect that opinion, but I seriously see as a tie with "Reign In Blood"!
To think Metallica wrote this song at the ages of 24-25 years old is mind-blowing. A masterpiece written at that age is incredible to me.
They were actually 22-23 years old when it was released in March of 1986. James and Lars were 22 and Cliff and Kirk were 23. James and Lars had to be 21 when the song was written because they started recording just a month after James turned 22 and Lars was still 21 throughout recording.
@@MatthewC137 thats becuse people were lot more mature than today,i am 26 today and i can concive myself to have this life depth to write something like this myself even 2-3 years ago,todays teens cant spell restaurant,can only charge their phone and go to gym.
The Puppets/Justice albums were their peak for lyrics. After that their lyrics became pretty underwhelming. I doubt anyone will feel any kind of impact reading the lyrics to Lux Aeterna.
Mr Bungle were teens.
@@Spthomas47 Mike Patton is on a whole other level than any other artists on the planet
The flow of the song takes you on the ride of a junkie. The tweaking, jerky, manic start. The sudden smoothing out of the high that slowly fades away back to the mania. I love it when the song flow mirrors the lyrics. Evenflow by Pearl Jam comes to mind.
This song is nothing but pure genius. It's written from 2 different perspectives at the same time: drug addict and drug itself. The music portion is from the perspective of the addict. The lyrical portion is from the perspective of the drug except for one small part. When the music starts picking back up again, the lyrics and music merge to both come from the perspective of the addict...
Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been after? Master, Master, you've promised only lies. Laughter, laughter, all I see or hear is laughter. Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries. FIX ME!
And that is when the perspectives separate and it's back to Master (drug of choice) and addict.
Nobody is ever really ready for their first time hearing this track.
Perhaps I was in a bad mood when I borrowed this recording but did not get into it back in the day but digging now master of puppets is aging well.
Very true. When he said "I can't time it" I lost it. :D See that's how we feel when we try to dance
I saw them in 1985 I was hooked with Kill 'em all...then Ride the Lightning came along.
@@stevenricchezza2965 guess they've actually outsold Ozzy but they're probably excluding Black Sabbath when they claim that they outsold
My sister gave me And Justice for all. Blackened stayed on repeat for some time. The complexity.
Been a Metallica fan since I was a kid in the 80's. I absolutely love watching people experience them for the first time. No one does it like they do. Welcome to headbanging!
Same here! I’m now an addict of watching Metallica reaction videos. It’s so great to see people experiencing them for the first time and immediately feeling the way we did when these songs came out. Music brings people together and I love all these people truly listening and realizing metal isn’t what they thought it was. 🤟
No one does it like they used to do, not even then!
Same here. I had heard some because I had older brothers but after the black album came out I went back and really listened to everything with a bit more purpose. So young though. Wish I could experience that again but as someone with a far better trained ear for hearing music.
It is priceless to see new people be amazed at the precision and song writing. Melodic Metal it is….
🤘🖤🤘
I just saw these guys live a few days ago….they’re absolutely crazy to hear in person. You feel their music go through your body
I was there too. Got a high five from James. It was awesome
Saw them in 89 and 16, both transcendent experiences.
Which concert. I saw them in Arlington, Texas
@@russelmachalek4827 I was at Olympic Park in Montreal. Did you enjoy the show?
@@ryandrohan8186 I did! Absolutely banger of a concert!
The more you listen to Metallica, the more the odd time changes sound "correct."
And James always puts in a nice repeatable crunchy riff that you can hang onto.
love meter collapse
I mean just about all there songs are in 4/4 timing with tempos generally ranging between 168 to 192 beats per minute. Once you keep up the timing is easy.
This song is about addiction.
Master of Puppets Album as a collective is prob one of the greatest albums of all time. Up there with the Wall & Dark Side of The Moon.
Im a huge Metallica Pink Floyd Queen Fan.
A lot of their songs have deep, relatable meaning.
One - being alone after tragic war
Fade to Black - suicide
Sanitarium - feeling like you are locked up in a cell
And JUSTICE FOR ALL...our unfair judicial system.
My favorite is To Live is To Die.
I look forward to more Metallica reactions.
Orion is my favorite as a guitar player! The first 5 LP's really...
shortest straw!!!my life!
@danperez6685 This is also one of my favorite. My son's middle name is Orion. They need to make a VR roller coaster game to this song.
It was a instant classic the minute it was released in 1986. You can thank Cliff Burton for the dynamics and arrangement.
Cliff is the absolute best bassist ever, his song writing is beyond underrated!
RIP Cliff
R.I.P. ClFF we miss you
🤘💀🤘
They fell off so hard after Cliff. From Black to their latest stuff, it's never been as good as the first 3 albums.
god rest his soul
The first time I heard this was live. They opened for Ozzy just a few months before the wreck. I had heard a couple of songs by them before that show. I was blown away that night. RIP CLIFF we all miss you.
Evokes emotion.!! Not just the lyrics.. but the musical composition tells the story within the lyrics. Love seeing people reacting to Metallica, it's like watching a person's mind being opened. The true masters..
The riff changes with Metallica are phenomenal. Not everyone can handle the changes but I think they've told the ultimate story JUST with the instrumentals. If you think about it, all those riff changes are a living element of addiction. The highs and the crashes are the the same as the riff changes. That's what an addict experiences
As an addict in recovery, I whole heartedly agree!
If you think those riff changes are phenomenal, listen to “The Leper Affinity” by Opeth.
Yep, spot on. The music perfectly reflects what the song is all about and takes you on that ride sonically..... cheers.
You speak the truth, my dude. I hope you’re doing well!
@@nickrizzo4635 I'm a chick, but yep, I'm good here😉
The drummer, Lars Ulrich, was inspired by the drummer for The Police, Stewart Copeland. When he does the pauses, he's offsetting the beat by one. The rest of the band continues on the standard, 1-2-3-4 pattern, but he's switched to 2-3-4-1. Then on the next pause he goes back in sync with the band.
Many people think he fucked up, but it's actually genius! 🔥🤘🏽🔥🤘🏽
Finally! Someone with some god damn sense!
Cheers!
Many *NORMIES AND SCRUBS* think its a fakk up.
Anyone with half a brain get that this is intentional.
@@nickrizzo4635 Thanx! 😁
I always thought the entire band switches to 6/8 for a bar. Either might be correct, I don't know
2 of my all time Favorite drummers, Lars n Stewart 👍🏽
Incredible that you were able to experience this song with this much depth. You felt it. You dove in. I respect that. You let the art speak to you and you totally understood deeper than i ever could. You have a great insight for art and creativity 👏
I absolutely love these reaction vids. seeing non metal heads appreciate the music I grew up with brings me so much joy. Thank you for being so open minded bro. much love and respect to you
This song is WILD. Addiction from the addict's perspective, explained better than ever. I've never been able to understand it fully myself, but my sister was on the junk for years. After seeing it firsthand, this song hits different, my understanding is completely different now. It's even more haunting now
no, anon.
it's addiction from the demon's perspective.
@@freezingcathedral it is from the drugs perspective THE master of puppets.
It is absolutely from the perspective of the drug or other source of addiction. Pay attention to when it's using I and Me, and what's being said with it.
"Taste ME you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you"
Basically try me and you'll be on the hook and want more. You want more of the me no matter what, even though I'm destroying you. Definitely the substance talking. Not the user, not the addiction. The substance personified, controlling you and laughing at you as you struggle.
From the drugs perspective or the addicts perspective, the story is told with the same desperation, power and control. I totally understand what you’re saying
The Kings! This is the album that made me pick up a guitar when I was 12 years old. I had one hell of a career in my bands playing with a lot of huge artists including the likes of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Luda. I just got my tickets to see them in the pit in Arlington, TX on August 18th and August 20th 2023. Those will be my 15th and 16th live Metallica shows! I can’t wait. Great reaction. Now you have to go down the Metallica rabbit hole! 🤘
when are you coming back to MELTDOWN
James Hetfield is the king of downpicking.
You played for Luda? Like, the rapper?
That is bad ass!
I absolutely love when the realization hit you as to the dark meaning in the song. Do worry we ALL got caught up in the music drive of the song till we caughtb the lyrics..
It was 1986, I was 17 years old. Me and a friend drove to the liquer store where they sold beer to underage people. On the way there my buddy says "you gotta hear this" He pulls a cassette tape out of his coat pocket and plays master of puppets. It was that day my musical world was changed forever.
I need more Blunt in my life. It's like listening to all these songs again vicariously through him.
this was 'normal' for metal kids growing up in the 80s. imagine being 15 years old blasting an entire album of this over and over
Yes we did. It was amazing.
05:54 always love the reactions when someone hear's this for the first time and you can literally see the all the lyrics coming together in their head haha
I think the reason it sounds "chopped" is because that's exactly how the riff is written. The end of every other bar is in 7/8, but it's not "written" in 7/8, Lars just kinda thought "hey wouldn't it be cool if we did this?"
It's creates this frenetic start-and-stop sound which reflects the subject matter perfectly. Metallica really were on another level in the 80s
There you go! That's what I've heard and it was interesting to see someone react to it!. I didn't know how to properly phase what they did that was a bit different than normal
The highs and lows of addiction felt intensely through the musical genius of Metallica!🤘👊
Creeping Death, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Ride The Lightning, Kill Em All, Seek And Destroy, The Four Horsemen, One, Harvester Of Sorrow, Sanitarium, Blackened, The Unforgiven, Nothing Else Matters, Sad But True, Wherever I May Roam, Until It Sleeps, the list goes on
I started liking Metalica when they did the black album. I got to listen to their first S&M concert live on the radio...
First time watcher. Thank you for this reaction! Music is meant to be listened to TOGETHER, and seeing you enjoy it for the first time brings back my first experience with the song, and many more since. Great stuff! Keep it up!
I freaking LOVE this dude!!!! 🤟🏼
I am feeling the emotion of hearing this for the first time all over again through this dude! 🤟🏼
I remember when this came out. Being in my bedroom and putting this record on. We all reacted like you did on this. It’s fun to see people today living the magic we did. It’s like listening for the first time again. Thanks for doing this
Yes it's the right version. A lot of their music is like that if you listen to them. It was one of the things I really loved about Metallica those long ass intros and the way they just kind of paused it yeah it's awesome.
Just subbed, first time here. Great reaction!
My wife thinks im crazy watching reaction videos...
Not reliving youth, just enjoying younger versions of myself witness new music for the first time!
Believe it or not i saw this tour in Edmonton at the convention center. Id say 1500 people at most, more likely 800. James even operated the sound board in the middle of the aisle with a can of " canadian " for the opening band!
Anyhow, back in the 80's high school....lucky to have 30% of us " heads " liking metal, most preppy's and jocks were into pop. So nice to see a new generation appreciating!
From west coast canada 🇨🇦, peace!
I'm not even two minutes into the video and I already love that you are in disbelieve, if this is the right thing! The arrangements of METALLICA can be overwhelming. LOVE IT!
I've always taken it that the start is the drug trying to lure, seduce, tempt you. Goading you. Then the music break where it gets mellow and gradually amps back up, is the high once you give in to the temptation. It gets more frantic and then you realize what it's done and you're yelling at the drug. Then the drug comes back in and torments you, boasts and brags about it. Absolutely my favorite Metalica song. Thanks for reacting to it. If you haven't done "One" you should (Official video please). And you have to do Enter Sandman (the live concert in Russia in 1991. It will blow your mind)
when this album came out, I was a junior in high school. My buddies and I picked it up from the music store, plugged it in the cassette deck and drove down to the beach listening to this on full blast while smoking many fat joints. I remember being totally blown away. This was their masterpiece album.
I was a few yrs behind ya. My experience was with AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. Speechless 😮
I was 8 years old when this album came out jammin it on cassette tape, had Kill ‘em All too. Loved Metallica since the first time I heard them!
I have 36, in Colombia is not that popular metal bands, but my older brother get me through rock and metal, and the first time a heard this song, i was completely blown away. Same reaction, Metallica is the greatest band of all of times. Is beautiful to see young generations getting the same reaction on this. Amazing.
Once you fall into the Metallica trap, there is no escape for the rest of your life. I’ve been listening for 30 years. Started playing guitar because of them. 🤘
Both of my sons, born almost 11 years apart, picked up guitars after really getting into Metallica. Thankfully I'm a huge fan myself because their music has been the soundtrack of my life for as long as I can remember.
Love Metalica and the way every song takes you on a journey. I think the drug is the Puppet Master. One of the best guitar solos is in this song. Love your reaction ♥️
Welcome to the skinned rabbit hole my friend! I love your enthusiasm. This is truly great music, as great music comes through in all forms, open ears are as important as open hearts.
The build up from the solo back into the song is one of the best transitions in metal history. These guys were the absolute GOATS of metal.
I saw Metallica open for Ozzy in 86. And it was the master of puppets tour. It was amazing.
Jealous! I saw them on the and justice for all tour.
In all seriousness their brand has changed so much over the years. Their newest song just came out like less than a week ago too. I'm actually pretty impressed with it. You should check it out
Lux Aeterna
@@MrROTD thank you
Hell yeah bro, the new song is pretty lit! 60 years old and shredding like that. A breath of fresh air.
There’s a heavy Motörhead influence.
Bro I really appreciate you going straight to the music and reaction. Subbed.
Love that you go straight to the music! No build up, no 4 minutes of dialogue....just music! Love it
I had just turned 14 when this record came out. It literally changed my life and became the anthem of my spring. Arcades and this song pumping in my walkman were a memory I will always treasure. I have seen them live in every decade except the current one...will ensure I do before the 20s are over :)
I'll never forget hearing Enter Sandman as a 6 year old in 91 at the state fair. My body and soul felt it and my mother... Was like "well shit." Up until then I had listened to patsy cline, Johny cash, old school country. CCR was the closest to rock I had gotten. But that day, a metal head was born and my mother knew it. God bless her too lol because she never said anything about me blasting Megadeth, Lamb of God, Slipknot, Manson, Zombie growing up other than coming to my room to tell me it was bedtime haha.
My son is 37. It was me blasting metal that got him into it. I'm 60 and still blasting all that good shit!!
Bruh I was 14 working at a Kroger (Regional grocery store) and heard this song blasting out of a car in the parking lot. Raised in a baptist home, I had no exposure to secular music. I'd never heard metal before. I asked the guy what it* was and he took the tape (yes, tape) out and straight gave it to me. Changed my life.
I think it’s really cool seeing people who aren’t necessarily familiar with heavy music not only listening to it and seeing their reactions, but also getting it, understanding it and realizing and experiencing the different emotions. To some it’s just noise and screaming but when someone actually tries to take it all in and tries to feel the music, it’s kinda magical, I think it reminds us metal heads how we felt the first time we experienced a song and kinda brings it all back, it’s nostalgic and it’s really cool.
Your daughter is beautiful, good on ya man, family makes life worth living!
If you’re looking for something else to check out I’d highly suggest Pantera, seems like some other people have recommended them also. The first Pantera song I ever heard was Revolution Is My Name and I can remember it like it was yesterday, that one moment literally changed me and over time that band influenced me and had a significant and positive impact on my life. Another Pantera song I’d also highly recommend is Domination live in Russia, it really shows the power and influence those guys had and it kinda makes me giddy. Best of luck to ya man, god bless and rock on!
I love how most people are shocked and confused at the beginning of this song and by the end they’re singing along 😊
Brilliant as always!!! Top man
I can't think of a better way to unite people than through music.
Especially when it involves one of the greatest metal songs ever composed!
This song is about addiction and the puppet master is the drug that takes controle of your life. Also the song is structured to reflect the way in which addiction takes hold of you with the high energy in the beginning, then you get that beautifully melodic section like the euphoric felling you get when high that transitions to that aggressive pounding beat of the need for more and the low of coming down. A beautifully arranged piece of music and a powerful message. Great to see you enjoying music and being open to new things. Us metalheads welcome any and all who are honest and good. Peace
Yes ! Well done Sir!
Hooray a metalhead finally, who no doubt also knows to, just ignore Dave haha.
I always enjoyed the story tellers. I consider Metallica to be one of those bands that requires a comfy chair and time to absorb the album as a whole. It brings a new feel to listening s to individual tracks 🤟
You also might enjoy a little "Eddie" in your life via the band Iron Maiden. I can tell you the live shows were amazing. Great reaction.
The brilliance of this track is the how they assult the groove to drive forward, getting in ahead of the beat to propel to the next groove. It is designed to shake you, and perchance reflect in a microbeat.
I love listening to reactions of people who would normally never listened to such music, and then hear some mind blowing interpretations, which absolutely fit the music both then and now, Thank You Sir...
My man, you need to Ride the Lightning.
It's NOT chopped 😂. That's just the brilliance of Metallica man😍
Maybe it should be😂
OMG, you probably are the best critic of music I've seen, no shit you made my day 😁.
I never saw somebody as shaken by a tune as you were, and you know what ? Master of puppets IS a masterpiece, and it deserved nothing less than this EPIC appreciation oy yours.
That moment with your daughter was the best part of this video, my man. Love to see it. As far as the song, the "puppet master" as you called it, is not a person or a government. It's the drug itself. I hope that helps you understand the song better. If you want to listen to the DEEPEST Metallica song ever, it's Bleeding Me. Hetfield is an amazing poet. Those lyrics are incredible. Others that I recommend are Unforgiven, One (based on a movie called Johnny Got His Gun), and if you want my favorite album of theirs, it's the original Symphony and Metallica recorded in 1999 with the San Francisco Orchestra. Melodically, it's the best version of Metallica. I highly recommend it. Great reaction video! I'm looking forward to more.
Greatest album ever, the atmosphere and quality is out of this world, definitely reminds me of great times.
Four Horsemen, Creeping Death, Orion, I can go on and on with great classic Metallica 🤘
For the first time hearing this song, you broke it down perfectly! Awesome job !!!
Can you believe this song is like 37 years old???...Sound the same today IRL!!! 🤟🤟🔥🔥
From a HUGE Metallica fan, your reaction is FANTASTIC!!
I love it when the young generations finally listen to awesome classics such as Metallica.
I fucking LOVE that you got so freaked out by the odd time signature in the verses- 5/8 or something, but it's totally jarring and badass creative- ups the urgency even more 'cause it's a missing beat
Released in 1986 this album was light years ahead of its time. The song is about lead singer James Hetfield’s battle with drug addiction
Another band that had a lot of longevity as Korn. That's an experience too. I've seen them in concert like 10 times. It's so loud the stadium shakes with everyone singing and bouncing. I saw them at the LA Galaxy stadium in LA and you could see the stadium jostle.
THAT SHITS WACK.
@@JP-yt3nk Debbie Downer... No need to be critical Keyboard Warrior.
I just saw them with my daughter in Vegas earlier this year… they were awesome.
Strictly my opinion, but this is the best song on the best album by the best band. Great choice. Saw them live in July of 1986, just got tickets for 2 more shows, #22&23.
So many options to suggest. You seemed to really enjoy the speed and energy. For me, my next favorite is Dyer's Eve. Buckle in, it's a bumpy ride.
PS. Your child is beautiful. Bless you my friend
Bro! Those dreds are made for head banging!! Couldn't have picked a better song for it. Your reaction was really, really enjoyable with great commentary. Very entertaining. A++!
I was a senior in high school in 89 jamming to this with my old truck. 2 15s in the back, with 8s, 5.25 and 1 inch tweeters in each door with just under 1200 watts. Lord I miss that ride.
GREAT REACTION. I almost peed in the beginning too. 😆
It’s not a person or the media or whoever pulling the strings and then drugging someone. Take it from the perspective of the DRUG ITSELF singing to the addict. The drug itself is the puppet master.
The off beat is a head trip! Check out and justice for all, and also One. There earlier albums will stick with me forever... great reaction!
Listen to it again with the knowledge that it's about addiction, and the master is the drug. The first break is when the user uses and you get that initial beauty, that gives way to sadness, then builds back into the desperation of the beginning of the song. It really is a masterpiece.
You did a really good job of explaining what you felt while hearing the song for the first time. Welcome my friend.
Great reaction man! Next song I highly suggest from them is called “One” I suggest doing the lyric video though cause the video itself interrupts the music, all the instrumental parts and epic ness of the song itself. If you know what I’m saying
My alltime fav Metallica song!!! Listening to this song you have to realize your not in control and they are pulling the strings. Just when you think you found thier rythem they change it on you and send you in another direction. It's a true masterpiece in music!!
I can see you get it, man!.......love your reactions, keep doin more metallica, it will rearrange your soul.....
Dude, no intro, no "it's ya boy", no "coming up..." no "if you rnew to the channel..."
Straight into the reaction. Instant sub, first time I've see your stuff and it's an instant sub. Thanks man.
You NEED to check out "one" by Metallica, very dark song but a masterpiece nonetheless. Nothing can prepare you for that monster.
Do you suggest the lyrics only or the video version. ( i like the lyrics version for a first timer)
@@robberrie677 I'd usually advocate for an original release w/subtitled lyrics, and I do think the original version is a superior listen, but our man here is sharp enough to not be distracted by the additions to the video version - which I think has a more visceral impact by including the movie visuals and dialog added from which the song is inspired. At least so long as he knows the official release doesn't also have all the movie stuff. My $0.02 :)
I usually have another window open with the song lyrics just in case . 😂 I learned my lesson when I first heard a heavy metal song
@@TooBlunt I remember, you did one american group then a few weeks later the russian group about babayagga....
I was pretty sure someone would have requested the song “One” which is probably my favourite. “Nothing Else Matters” is another great one.
It's called "Thrash"... and this may be the pinnacle of the genre. Based on speed, technical prowess and heart pumping riffs, Thrash is and was that other end of the spectrum of calm. Frantic and furious. Personally... kept me from lashing out.
Coming back from the record store 30 years ago and listening to this for the first time. You were never the same.
Sometimes I wish I was new to Metallica. Love watching other people experience it for the first time too. Keep going in your search my friend. So much more for your brain to absorb. New fan, be well.
i like how you figured out the core of the vibe/theme/problem before the mirror line, just from the rests/time change awkwardness
Impressive reaction! I’ve never seen you before. Metallica does it all. Try Sanitarium. It’s a beautiful banger!
Thanks for the comment :) and I’ll be diving deep into this band. My first listen blew my mind
@@TooBlunt They’re legendary for a reason.
Looking forward to more from you.
Check out the live version of For Whom the Bell Tolls, with the symphony. It’s breathtaking!
I need that entire album in studio version.
The beauty of this is either by vocals or music the ride your going on is a unseen roller coaster ride.
Wow I really appreciate your reaction to this beautiful piece of music that Master of puppets actually is I love this song. It's literally one of the best metal songs ever. I really love seeing people react to Metallica who's never listen to them before and I'm glad you got it I'm glad you felt it.
The Master of Puppets is the drug! How it completely takes over your life and becomes your number one, everything else is secondary to your next fix. Very dark and important song.
It’s really any addiction, for them it was mainly alcohol. While the one line does explicitly call out cocaine, the MoP can be anything that someone is addicted to that shapes their behavior, even social media, for a modern context.
One was the first song that drew me in to being a Metallica fan. One is a timeless masterpiece.
I became more of a fan because of they were influenced by Rush.
This is the best review of this song I’ve seen. Job well done TooBlunt.
