- I've only ever reacted to one Metallica song so far so I thought we could listen to another one. To say Metallica blow me away would be an understatement. I hope you enjoy this one.

Funny story...not long after this album came out my next door neighbor, a kid 14 years old, asked me to copy this onto cassette for him because his mom would not let him buy it because she thought it was about devil worship ("master"), she was very christian. I went and bought a actual copy for him and then sat down with him and his mom and explained the meaning of each song with them. She let him keep the the cassette :)
Legend has it....Jesus is a Metallica fan.
I'm surprised she still didn't have a problem with the thing that should not be, even though it's based on fictional works, sometimes very religions people still have problems with that iconography.
I have a somewhat similar story. I went to Sunday school as a kid and my friend's mother was convinced by the adults in church that Metallica was evil and demonic, so she made him throw out all of his Metallica t-shirts and vinyl records/tapes. I think this was around 1990-1992 or so.
What very kind and cool thing to do
Hmm, how’d you explain Leper Messiah lol
This song helped me kick drugs. No lie. 15 years sober 👍
Congrats!
good 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
BEAUTIFUL. 17 years myself.
I call my "anniversary" as my BIRTHDAY.. The day my life started anew
@@Shortsac72 Congrats!
Congrats!
Man, this album saved my life. My mom committed suicide when I was 14 years old. The album Master of Puppets came out just a few weeks after my mother ended her life. I listened to this album so much that I had to buy a new cassette tape 8 months later. Then I started playing guitar and my head took a new focus, and I was determined to learn all these songs. Little did I know, I joined a Metallica cover band when I was 18 years old. I am now 50 years old and I have seen Metallica 28 times. Keep on discovering man and I hope the music does to you what it did to me 30-some years ago.
Thanks for sharing, that's awesome!
God Bless you! I also know what you deal with when it comes to suicide. My aunt committed it and killed my uncle. We never got over it. Just had to accept it. ❤
Respect 🫡
Did you ever get a good James Hetfield for the band? The hardest part.
❤❤❤❤❤
Its like Bohemian Rhapsody meets metal 😂
“I feel like this is a bit different from enter Sandman” 😆
Understatement of the century!
😂😅
🤣
I’m in my mid-40s now. I can still remember the exact way I felt the first time I heard this on my walkman on the school bus. Metal is visceral.
Not all metal is equal tho. Metallica is one of the few that are in a complete league of their own.
I was about to comment this. I remember the first time I heard this.
Yep, my first time was on school bus too, a field trip to San Francisco exploratorium, my homie passed me his Walkman and it was POISON look what the cat dragged in. Mind blown , didn’t take long to move on to other bands like Metallica about a year later, mind double blown. The 80s were so sick 😢
@@Erizeddyep, the blend of emotional wizardry, belting riffs and peerless blends, fills, transitions and the seemingly perfect cast, even after losing cliff, can you imagine anyone but Jason standing on that stage? They're like some kind of force of nature that was destined to happen.
Still the same way
balls to the wall
I think watching the younger generation discover Metallica has become my favorite new pastime. I was introduced to them when this album came out. I was 11 and it changed my life. Been a fan ever since - 37 years. I've seen them 18 times. That singer is the mighty James Hetfield 😊
Same! I remember hearing Creeping Death for the first time when it was released in 1984 on the radio I was 15! 😎
And thinking (for me) alllllll the way back the day this came out. On cassette. I waited in line, just like I did for Ride, AND Kill Em All! The memories of ME hearing these for the first time-- CLASSIC!
@@ElkSlayer8172 I'm in the states too! I'm out in the wilds of Arkansas now but spent most of my life just south of the Bay Area. I've not seen them this tour. Yet. But it'll happen lol
Me too, glad I’m not weird for doing it too, ha. I was 12 when I first heard Metallica and I’m 41 now so it just feels like so long ago.
I love watching reactions to this song especially. In my opinion this one of if not the greatest metal song of all time.
The 80s were the best. We waited overnight in line at the music store to buy tickets, got wristbands, bought our $20 tix and partied on! No cell phones, no social media. Just living the good life... real music, real life.
Ah, how I miss the good ol' days. 😢
I waited outside all night for tickets in February in Utah 🥶, so worth it
I miss the 80s, sigh.
This song means so much to me now too after 2 tours in Iraq 2006/2008 along with a lot of other songs.
One.
The BEST TIMES!!!🤘🏼
My friend and I only had enough money to go to one concert during this particular summer. He wanted to see Saxon and I wanted to see Metallica. I won and we went to see Metallica in Manchester UK a week or so before Cliff died. RIP
I feel like this is where we see the birth of a metal fan unfold before our eyes and it’s beautiful. 🥹
My brother in-law played this in his car for me when I was around 8. Been a Metallica head every since. This band opened my eyes to music and it changed everything.
In 2015, Master of Puppets became the first metal recording to be selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."
I try to scroll through comments so I don’t repeat this information. My Metallica family never disappoints!
Being America the rest must be rap songs lol
Metallica has been named one of the most musically talented bands of all times may times, and also holds the record of biggest audience of all time to this day
@@KeyMoveMediaWho the hell says they're the most talented? Testament, Death, Obituary, Cannibal, Corpse, Anthrax, Animals As Leaders, Slayer, Brutality, Nuclear Assult, King Diamond/Mercyful Fate, Ahnililator, Vovoid, Razor, Sodom, Havok, Bolt Thrower, Megadeth. Etc. Etc. Are all much more muscially talented
@@predeterminedmeat5024 I just read the awardlist, chill
Christ, I envy you listening to this the first time...ive been listening to it since '86,and it never gets old
Nothing like the first time, I remember where i was when I heard this for the first time. It was so impactful. Stopped me in my tracks.
Thats right
First time always HITS you the best. And then you only listen it again like 50 million times and cant get enough. Even my dad fell in love with this one when he heard it in 90's...
I do and i don't....while Metallica will always be Metallica and James will always be number one for me his voice ofcourse changed. I really loved that grit he had
@@poopsebebmy buddy lent me the MoP cassette, and it blew me away. The Thing that Should Not Be hit me the hardest. The rest of the album hit me the hardest not long after lol
The part where James screams Fix Me always gets me. The song is about addiction and drugs and it has three parts. The temptation and taking the drug, the melodic high and the crash at the end.
A masterpiece of a song.
Took me over 20 years to understand that part.
Perfectly explained, well done.
PANCAKES GO!!
(Only real ones know)
But waffles are better then pancakes :P@@ag4m_fr
well, that's one interpretation of it. I always saw it as starting off with the bottomless despair of one person, then the mid section it has moved onto a new victim and their euporia in the high, then carshing into despaire as well in the 3rd part... yet another life ruined.
"Seek And Destroy", "For Whom The Bell Tolls", "Fade To Black", Welcome Home Sanitarium " are all MUST listen to songs. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That opening riff to Seek and Destroy 🔥- well - they are all 🔥
@@WorldCASTWebAR. One, harvester of sorrow, even Hero of the day from Load.
Seek and Destroy live is a must!
For Whom The Bell Tolls is so easy to play, but so badass and cool!
Absolutely.. I'd add BATTERY, BLACKENED, FRAYED ENDS OF SANITY, AND WHIPLASH to that mix as well.!! JUST for starters.
This is the best of the best. A masterpiece. It doesn´t get eny better than this. The word epic speaks for itself here.
For me this is the best song ever written.
This guy is James Hetfield...the riff master, the right hand of God! He Is not just a guy, it's THE guy! 🤘
Dear Molly...u asked what the hell is this song ...its simply THE MASTERPIECE
I totally get why you teared up. When you let your mind and ears and soul tune in to Metallica, it's like you've come home to a deep part of yourself. Someplace dark but comforting and addictive. Welcome to the Metallica family, MollyBoy.
Sad but True. ;)
The guitar solo is the euphoria of the high.
There's levels to this and you just experienced level 1 - raw, visceral, emotional feelings to the musicality. It gets deeper at level 2 when you realize the song is about addiction and the "master" is drugs and the "puppet" is the addict (us). Level 3 is when you catch on to the ebb and flow of the music and how it matches an addict's driving need for a hit, then the calm that follows right after getting that hit, and then the rising, driving need for another hit.
damn brother
That's a perfect explanation of this masterpiece
Bravo. Most people only hear the music and don’t understand the song.
I feel like it also tells the stages so well. The addiction, the attempt to become sober, and the relapse.
@@Crazyguy_123MC Yeah, good point that it's not just the day-to-day need to get a fix but overall stages of addiction.
This is generally regarded as the greatest heavy metal song of all time.
And you can see why.
I hear ya!!!! However, my vote would go to “The Four Horseman”
@@kikivon3501 Creeping Death for my vote...but you can't really go wrong with much of Metallica's Holy Trilogy.
@@kikivon3501 The four horsemen is SO underrated it's almost criminal. Most people wouldnt put it in metallica's top 10.
@@03olo020 I have always had a soft spot for the early, lower production, rawer tracks. It holds true for all my favorite bands, except maybe Floyd and Tool. Good clean production and sound are key for Prog. It’s not Prog if it sounds like a garage band.
no it's not lol
Sounds hella better when you’re blasting that sh!t!!!! 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
Grew up on this!! ❤❤
“Chop your breakfast on a mirror“… Cleverest Metallica line of all time - no pun intended. That line has made me smile since I first heard it back in 1989 or something. I was just a wee lad then, but I came to appreciate it even more when I myself became a musician, a songwriter, and a short fiction writer. It’s just a great line!
great liiine ye
You NEED to listen to this album in its entirety! Disposable Heroes is a must! Been listening to these guys since 88’ and their first few albums never get old!
Disposable heroes is a killer track. So is Battery, Sanitarium, The that should not be... okay you realized where I am heading.
THEY ALL ARE AMAZING. THERE NO "FILLER" TRACKS ON PUPPETS. Period.
Fade to Black. The guitar solo / outro is a masterpiece.
Everything on ride the lightning to and justice for all is a masterpiece 😁
Orion solo is better
@megataker4624 oh totally. Orion is one hell of a track
Best Metallica solo imo. Fits so well, the build and the emotional climax 🤌
I listened to fade to black so much after my dad died.
Such a masterpiece
Still gives me chills
This song remains on my forever playlist. One of my favorite Metallica songs of all time!! Loved your reaction.. ❤
Oh my sweet summer child. This is only the beginning. SOOOOOOOOO much good metal out there
Man I love seeing someone discover Master of Puppets for the first time. Always the same reaction of amazement and just being blown away. This is how a metal head is born :)
I know it never gets old, this song is a masterpiece
This is the best reaction Ive ever seen. I could see the amazement on your face that took me back to 8th grade and hearing this same song. Love it.....keep going my friend you ARE a metal fan!!
This song is a 11 act opera. Best song ever.
1. Blinded by drugs.
2. Ritual of the drug use, like chopping it on a mirror
3. Call out for more
4. Get more and get high interlude.
5. Come down off the high.
6. Promise was only lies
7. FIX ME - multiple meanings. Need to get fixed to get off the promise of the drugs, but get another fix from them.
8. Get all messed up.
9. Keep burning life faster.
10. Do it again.
11. OD and the drugs laugh.
Not drugs laughing, it’s the demons that lead you to them
I don't cry to sad songs at all. I cry when things are composed amazingly. Well, not cry.....but get chills and choked up and very damn close to dropping tears.
I know I’m late to your Metallica party but let’s go!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 I’ve heard this song 100 million times and I cried with you!! 👍🏻
I totally feel you when you say it almost made you cry. No joke, Metallica very often moves me to tears. Their skill and power is next level.
I love seeing people react to this song, it never gets old
Welcome to the world of Heavy Metal... Congrats... just wait til you feel it
Not only is this one of the best songs from the band but this is one of the best songs EVER made!
It's still the best metal song ever written
@@atvena It's either this or Holy Wars, couldn't tell you myself, as both songs are masterpieces
I don't know you are probably right but they also wrote about 28 other songs that could also be named... disposable heros, dyers eve, harvester of sorrow, fade to black, one, four horsemen etc etc etc 😂😂😂😂
@@prodICYNexactly what I was going to say, they’re neck and neck
Excellent reaction, rewind how ever much you need to bruh !!! 🤘🎸🔥💯...
Tears... the appropriate response to many Metallica songs.
You’ve just experienced the greatest song from the greatest metal album ever made 🤘🎸🤟🎸🤘🎸
Thank you Cliff the classical mastermind behind all of these great songs🙏🏻🙏🏻
I've heard Metallica since the 80's literally close to a thousand times and I teared up watching your reaction which was priceless
what a great reaction. I've never seen anyone fall in love with Metal as it happened, awesome.
This song and their sound was unbelievable when it came out in the 80s. Nice reaction!
I love watching a song change someone's life that changed mine when i was a kid.
Man. I am 48 years old. I got to learn from Metallica at the age of 15 with the exact album Master of Puppets. It changed me as a person and also changed my life I would go out to say. Enter Sandman ist just a corporate shadow of what Metallica has been. Just go through the old albums and you'll find treasures beyond recognition. Have a good one, man!
For me this is as close to a perfect song as you can have. Even without the lyrics the music also tells the story of the frantic need for the drug, the high, the crash the need for more. It's a true masterpiece.
It’s a joy to watch your joy as you listen to this. That is what great art does. This whole album is a masterpiece!
Your reactions are great because they are organic and genuine.
I've listened to this song almost every single day since it's release back in '86.
It still gives me goosebumps. I still tear up. I still love it.
I get you and how you feel hearing it 🤘
One, official video is a must.
Seriously dude...ONE next...its a MUST watch...official MV.🎶🔥✌
The video is such a distraction to the song
@@kennethbeckhardt6210 It makes it SO much more depressing
This entire album is a masterpiece. One of the best rock albums of all time.
Ride The Lightning?
*metal
Mate, you dont look fake, those that tell you that are just comparing to them selves and most likely, having a high expectations and that your not reacting enough to one of thier faves. You can tell you genuine the way you just stop and stare thinking wbout what are hearing....dude, keep up the good work
The beautiful melody in the middle is his sweet relief giving into the addiction. The before is the resistance. The after is the desire to let it win again.
Always good to see when people hear Metallica and they just get it. They're a great band.
I love watching these young lads enjoy what I grew up with…real music, you actually listen to the music, its awesome, I cry with you Mate
15 yr old me had the exact same reaction... So glad i found this channel. It is like walking into a time machine and watching my own self discover the things that have been in my life for the past almost 40 years. Keep it up.
I never realized how poetic the ending of the song was. It ends in laughter, and cries. "All i hear and see is laughter, laughing at my cries"
Man, I remember buying this album when it first came out. I was 15 and I listened to it over and over for hours. I couldn't believe I was so lucky to experience it and now, 37 years later, I'm watching you have the same reaction as me. Amazing. Thank you, young man.
I was 16 when this came out. It’s great seeing these young kids experience what we did in 86. Our parents thought we were all possessed by the devil. Haha! All these years later and now my kids listen to Metallica. And I don’t believe my kids are possessed by the devil. This album is great for highway driving.
Yep, age 16 one of the last albums I bought on vinyl and one of the first I bought on CD
Enter Sandman was soft Metallica. This is the real Metallica.
Soft 😂 IT'S HEAVY !
@@ArildmedDnah, Sandman is soft. The whole album actually!
@@darthoblivion2615sad but true is heaviest metallica songs top 20
@@hebelehübele1216ğ I wouldn't call that song heavy at all. Kinda lame
@@darthoblivion2615 metallica calls our heaviest song
This song in itself is written & the Genius way it’s Played?
It’s absolutely insane in the way they portray the entire song as exactly how person feels through an addiction.
The very beginning is the jonesing/shaking for alcohol, Heroin,, etc. Really needing that substance..
Then the middle part is the epitome of how one feels after they finally get their fix! And even as an entirely sober person they make you feel buzzed!
Then the very end is hard, & dark again.. Of course it’s mirroring the next day when one is sick & stuck in the same repetitive cycle.
“Just a rhyme without a reason!” etc. So brilliant this track. Great reaction. 👍
I got goosebumps watching you get goosebumps! It's so awesome to see someone really see and hear Metallica for the first time. They are the best band ever. One interesting note about the way the early songs were made. James wrote the lyrics first and then they made the song around them. That's what you call talent!
This entire album absolutely RIPS!! Face melting solos, crushing rhythms at blistering tempos...it grabs you by the throat and DOES NOT let go.
This album is so good it was added to the national library as an example of an influential modern art piece.
Metallica is the ultimate gateway to metal. It was actually guitar hero for me. And while I may have moved on from them over time, they will always get respect.
Once you know the lyrics and their meaning you realize the instruments are telling a story as well. It's amazing. Soft instrumental in the middle is the "high" for example.
I absolutely love coming across these first time reactions. It's like the first time for me all over again and I'm transported back to when I was a teenager and I stood in line at the record store for over an hour to get my hands on the album. My two best friends on I listened to this album only for about 2 weeks straight. Great reaction, bro..
Your reactions remind me of what my reactions were like as a 15 year old kid back in the 80s hearing Metallica for the first time. So awesome that you are so open minded to different music.
FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE!!!!!!! That was the first Metallica song I ever heard, in a head shop in 1985. It starts so sedate, then drops an audio nuclear bomb. The hair on every part of my body was standing on end, absolutely gobsmacked.
It's unbelievable that they were in their early 20s when they wrote this. No co-writers just some guys who started a band in their garage.
Yep. That reaction at 9:32 - 9:52 was phenomenal. You got it, that transition is unreal and it grabbed you! They have several songs that have that, "what the? how the?" and it pulls you right in.
The classic Metallica trilogy. Ride the Lightning
, Master of Puppets, And Justice for All. Whole albums of reaction!!!🎉😊
I always enjoy people experiencing new music. Many people sort of get stuck listening to things their friends listen to and never expand. But when someone experiences something new, and they are floored, that’s really cool!
More Metallica needed, both old and new 🙂
That whole album is great. I really love Disposable Heroes; got me through church camp on my smuggled in walkman lol.
I've been listening to and loving Metallica for 35 years. To live these moments with you as you discover them and to feel your joy... well, it's something special. Truly.
This is how I expect everyone to react when listening to Metal..Best Music in the world!
This is my favorite song by them. The lyrics are just incredible - a masterpiece.
The lyrics slap, and I never get obsessed with lyrics before in my life, this song made me obsessed with they lyrics and I don't know why
I've listened to this since it came out and it gives me goosebumps every time.
Everything on this album is next level. You should do the entire thing.
Just imagine this smack in the middle of the hair metal bands. Their first three albums received virtually no airplay. I first heard this song in 1986 hanging out before school. Then the tour with Ozzy happened during this album and the chuggernaut of Metallica became unstoppable. For a suggestion, watch anything from the 1989 Seattle show and react.
It's been a while since I saw a pure Metallica reaction. Nice. 🤘
I was 13 in 1984 when I first hear of Metallica I have always like there music I have been to few of there shows in person now I'm 53 still listing to them
The beginning is the lies and false promises of drugs, the middle is yer man trippin balls for the first time with a crescendo of consequences and closing with the hard hit of his bad choices. Their track "One" will blow you away.
And the solo is your life out of control! Blinded by addiction !
My music teacher played this for my class when I was in second grade, and I've been obsessed with Metallica ever since. It's my go to band whenever I'm feeling sad, angry, or happy, and I can spend hours in my room just listening to them and doing nothing else.
Cool
A complete masterpiece. Many call this the best metal song on the best metal album of all time. An instant classic that made all musicians acknowledge that metal wasn’t just raucous, raunchy, party music and that it is intelligent, artistic, creative, and its players are virtuosos.
I always preferred the rawer sound of Lightning and love the really polished compositions in And Justice more but this album is amazing. Metallica when they were Metallica.
I’ve really enjoyed watching someone who is almost young enough to be my grandchild discovering some of the music that I grew up with, totally cool! The only other thing I wish you could experience was the idea of listening to an entire album start to finish. The internet is awesome but there really is a loss when you’ve got everything all at once. If I wanted to listen to let’s say the 4th song on an album I would have to fast forward my Walkman for like 2 min to get to it so I just listened to the whole thing. There were so many great songs on albums that never got air play or a video made that you’d never hear today because of the way music is consumed. If you really want to enjoy some of the Metallica or even the Pearl Jam and Nirvana listen to it off camera and enjoy the whole album start to finish. It might change your life. lol. Also I’d love to see you react to some Nine Inch Nails, completely different genre but same time frame. And it’s awesome in a different way.
What a gift to be able to experience this song for the first time through you. Thank you!
I think this song embodies addiction so well. Each part goes over a stage of an addiction. It starts with getting into an addiction, the addiction, the realization, the attempt to quit, the relapse, the end can either be the addiction winning or finally defeating the addiction.
Metallica - "for whom the bell tolls"!!! Imo their absolute masterpiece!
the opening bass solo
Its even more incredible when you understand what the song is about
I am listening to this since it came out and I am still hit by it. Masterpiece and I am in tears right now. It is simply beautiful and so is your reaction.
The laughter at the end of the song represents all of us ol skool metal heads laughing at your reaction. Not in a bad way,, your reaction was the same as ours back in 86. I'm glad to see the next-gens carrying the torch. My son came to me 8 yrs ago, told me he loved the music I liked and asked me to teach him guitar. 3 years later, I took him to his first Metallica concert. His mouth never closed throughout the whole show lol. Great video bro, ya got my sub
I've been listening to this song for over 30 years. And every time I listen to it it’s like it’s the first time. Need I say that Metallica is brilliant? This is no longer a question.
That is fine to cry) It is the normal organism reactin to what is insanely good)
Master of Puppets is quite possibly the greatest metal song ever written!
I AGREE!! the best #1..... #2. might be "ONE"
For me it's probably Holy Diver.
Ready for another mind-blow?
Most half of ALL GEN X and older Millennials know this song by heart ;-) ♥
This is what Real Music aounfs like No auto tune tears fits well. Its also arguably the greatest metal song of all time. And yes those change ups are legendary
I love watching people react to the bands that I’ve known for a lifetime. To see the absolute astonishment that this is something that speaks to multiple generations is fantastic. After you spend some time digging in I recommend you take a listen to these same songs on the S&M album which is live with the Sam Francisco Symphony Orchestra. It is unreal
Man this song still gives me goosebumps to this day and I've heard it thousands of times, even got it as my ringtone,its just 🔥🔥
It is my ringtone too. 😂 Probably the greatest song in history and I am 61 so I have heard a lot.
@MBGolfer I'm 52 so not quite as old as you man, obviously great minds and all that though 😉
