Master of Puppets (Remastered)

‘86 twas a good year for thrash metal. This one, Reign in Blood, and Peace Sells came out of nowhere and their quality holds up darn well today. Of these Master of Puppets was the leader, and a cultural achievement for heavy metal music. Pushing heaviness to an all new limit, and expanding upon Ride the Lightning’s literally shocking developments, MOP remains Metallica’s magnum opus for many, although I am quite partial to Lightning myself. The Thing that Should Not Be is in my opinion this album’s greatest track in an already classic set list. Can you name any other song in 1986 this crushing? It and Sad But True off the self titled are my personal favorite Metallica songs because of their crushing grind. The rest ain’t bad either, but I do feel the title track is overrated just a little and overplayed too. It’s still an amazing song but it’s been used to death in modern media and it’s everywhere! MOP is not my favorite Metallica album, but it cannot be denied of its seismic influence in the pushback against mainstream ideals and music that ultimately led to new subgenres of metal and even led to the explosion of grunge in a way. There’s a reason why it’s so revered, and no heavy metal collection should be without this album and Ride the Lightning. I like all of Metallica’s albums, but the two punch of RTL and MOP i think is the most impressive and important moment in Metallica and heavy metal itself’s evolution.

Every song on this is a banger. Battery is one of my favorites. Its also great that Metallica let Stranger things use Master of Puppets in the movie (btw I didn’t learn abt Metallica from Stranger Things), it really gained them a lot of fans. 5 star for this album

Best guitar solos I’ve ever heard
