    The interesting thing about this song is that the musicianship goes with what an addict goes through. You have the fast opening which can be an addict looking for their drug of choice. Then you get the mellow part in the middle that's like the high they feel. Then it gets frantic like the person is coming down off their high and freaking out for more. It's subtle, but when you hear it, you can't unhear it!

      Damn… I’ve never heard that about the song, but once you listen to it with that preface, you’re right…. I can’t unhear it now. I used to have that inner battle on a daily basis with pain killers and lost several years of quality life in my 20’s all from becoming addicted to opiates from a damn knee surgery. It’s the hardest and longest battle I’ve ever fought, but I finally came out victorious 12 years ago. Listening to this song again brought back memories of absolute despair, helplessness, the struggle to kill the withdrawals and how it completely dictated my life. Very emotional revisiting those feelings. Just reminds me of how hard it was to reclaim my life and this song replayed itself every. single. day. in my throws of addiction. Thank y’all for posting this. I truly appreciate it!!

    THE definitive Metallica song in my mind. The shifting time signatures, insane drumming, fast-slow-fast pacing, multiple guitar solos, and a complete showcase for Hetfield's voice, while displaying the melodic sound that began to signal the band's shift from true thrash to the more radio-friendly sound that would culminate in the Black Album.

    The overall theme of the album is controlling people, whether via drugs, religion, military, etc. So the hands controlling the graves could easily be the drugs controlling people to their deaths, or the military controlling soldiers until killed in battle. Very multi-faceted.
    This song is so amazing, not only because of the lyrics, but they also have that middle interlude showing the elated feeling of having the drugs in the system, and as the person comes back down, back to the main song...then James eventually screams "FIX ME!!" as he needs another hit...

    I always view the transitions of this song as craving drugs and withdrawal starting. The beautiful part in the middle is the momentary release you feel when you finally kill the pain by getting high. The heaviness entering back in afterwards is coming down and the withdrawal symptoms beginning again. The "master" is the voice in the addicts head. They obey that voice by robbing family, assault, killing, to obey the call of buying more drugs and getting high again.

      @@swcoder I couldn't have said it better myself, I feel the exact same way. Death Magnetic, Beyond Magnetic, and Hardwired are excellent albums even though the production/mixing wasn't great.
      I actually like St. Anger, it's definitely not their best work, but I think St. Anger was a necessary album to keep the band together and it allowed them to bounce back and return to form with the next two albums.
      The h8 for St. Anger is understandable, but I love it anyways and it's actually therapeutic to listen to when you're going through a rough time and need to release your negative feelings.

    Nice reaction. This song is really well done in my opinion. Done about addiction and I think the 4 parts mimic that. First part with "obey your master " is the craving, second slower "nice" part is the high after taking, third part with "telling only lies" is the comedown/withdrawal, and 4th part back to, "obey your master " back to craving completing the cycle of abuse. It was the anti drugs song that parents in the day thought was something horrible, lol.

    It’s about the addiction. The promise of something good and the inevitable end. The beginning is about the addiction promising things to you, the second half is the person questioning the addiction not giving what was promised. Musically. The first third is fast paced and frenetic as in needing a fix, the middle slowed down calm interlude is when you’re on the high and the last third is the inevitable craving for another fix. It’s amazing on a lot of levels.

    This song is about James Hetfeilds addiction to drugs, the middle slowdown is the "High euphoria" of the drug, then it speeds up to the need for more. He's written alot of songs about his life, his struggles and mindset. The Yeahhhs came from black album and after. If you want an excellent song to react to do "Creeping Death" or "Fade to Black" both extremely meaningful songs. I've been lucky I'm an 80's Metalhead, seen Metallica 6x one of my best concerts to date!! And I've seen all the Metal Gods!

    People saying Metallica sucks are in denial.... I used to not fully like them bc I was into mostly hard metal as a teen and young adult, but now that I'm older I see how this band was absolutely a huge staple in metal and how talented they truly are. They know music! They aren't just a band making some songs, they legit are versed in music and deep concepts and imagery for their music. When you feel music, you can kind of see it as well and they do an amazing job at portraying these! They connect with their fans on that deep level that people love and need! I've never done drugs and I barely drink, but I can understand addiction more with this song bc they convey the message so effortlessly. Just like with "One", it tells a deep ass story of a soldier. Even though you've never been through it, you can still connect to it and are put in their shoes.

    There is a great story about when the PMRC (The Parents Music Resource Center) protested a Metallica concert back in the 80's. Metallica invited them in to talk. The PMRC said that their music was awful and was leading the children to Satan and suicide. Metallica asked for an example. The PMRC said you have a song on your album called Creeping Death that means you are promoting suicide. Metallica asked if they had bothered to read the lyrics of the song. The folks from the PMRC said of course they had. Then Metallica told them what the song was about and read the lyrics. Creeping Death is the Biblical story from The Book of Exodus. The people in the 80's that were all fired up about censoring music really had no idea what metal music was about. They thought it was just angry noise. Most metal back then was angry but seldom was it noise. Great Reaction fellas!!!
