It’s 100% about drug addiction. The soft interlude in the middle represents the time when the addict is high; the angry, speed portions of the song represents fiending and withdrawal
According to James Hetfield, it's about "manipulation", which could be like eating or phones as well; bad habits we describe for ourselves mostly unawares.
@@nonserviam751 Well there were no cell phones when it was written so this may be a recent comment by him.
@@nonserviam751 Not manipulation. It's about addiction...
@@kentericsolberg7958 No, it's not; addiction is an aspect. These aren't even my words.
@@nonserviam751 if you google it you'll find that it was about addiction.
Whether or not he said different recently cant be contested but when it was written, manipulation had nothing to do with it unless you can assume that the drug can manipulate you into needing more.
This song is even more furious and seems even faster when seeing it live in concert! And it's awesome when the fans yell out "Master Master" every time they do!
@@notjustamom821 Sounds like we had similar experience then! If I remember right it was about 2005, 2006 when I seen them!
first time I saw them live I was totally disappointed, korn opened and was definitely the better performance
Sounds to me like the booger sugar is the master. Metallica is amazing live.
If that's a legit name for cocaine, then that changes my perception of Jimmy Neutron's parents
😂😂😂😂
@@alchemist824 awesome.
Also intravenous drug use. James older brother David was a cocaine addict in the early 80's.
@@paulriddle7818 I was not aware of that. Makes even more sense
Lars did the arrangements to coordinate the instruments. He didn't overload with drums but filled with technical detail to enhance the songs.
Screw Lars and what he did to the fans 🤦🏻♀️
Don't know I've seen anyone misinterpret this song when the lyrics are displayed before
Gave you a like anyway though because I dig your channel
its because he was focusing on one or two lines that align with his hypothesis and ignoring the rest. classic confirmation bias.
@@JungleScene lmao @ 1 or 2 lines.
Kinda stays in theme with cocaine lolol
Drug dealers can be pimps too. 🤷🏽♂️
‘Fans’ suddenly decided that the drummer they loved since the beginning was no longer a good drummer because he was the first to be outspoken against people sharing copywritten music. To many people he went from being the coolest kid at the party to being the buzzkill that told everyone that trashing hotel rooms wasn’t cool. That’s the reason for the hate. because he thought artists should always be compensated for their hard work. He’s was and still is a phenomenal drummer who was one of the pioneers of metal.
Ironically, he is the nicest guy these days and if Lars had not done that, we would not have all the music streaming apps out there! They were the option to get past the illegal downloading structure that was established. So if you use any of those apps, thank Lars for his part in starting that streaming ball rolling by being greedy. Also keep in mind that all of their songs from their latest album they released in full on RUclips for free along with their back catalogue on YouYube Music and other streaming apps.
@@Defensive_Wounds What streaming apps (Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music, RUclips et al.) got past was the US Congress and the Copyright Act. They finagled their way into legally streaming music, bringing in billions for themselves, and paying artists fuck all. The music industry was already floating in the shitter when they came along-they're the ones who pulled the handle.
Sorry, but that's not the only reason people say Lars is a bad drummer.
First off, nowadays, people generally agree Lars was right about Napster, given the current state of income for bands compared to the 1980s. Artists don't receive as much for their music anymore because of illegal downloading. Only those with the highest chart placements get the millions, as opposed to say 30 years ago when just being in the Top 50 scored you the big bucks.
Secondly, Lars is indeed a very mediocre drummer. he wasn't always a mediocre drummer, especially from 1983 to about 1991. His playing was always a muscular style of playing rather than a technical style which, starting out, is perfectly fine. He was a beginning drummer when they did their first album and he certainly had a lot of talent. But as the 1990s went on, his drumming got simpler and more predictable. He reused a lot of the same fills, often treating every song the same, and completely fails at controlling dynamics. His stick motions use his entire arm to swing and lift when hitting the drums which, if you do too much and start relying on that form, causes problems in your future. But the 1990s don't even compare to his performance in the 2000s when the band were going through internal struggles and he stopped practicing. Whenever they played live, he would often go off beat, mess up his fills, simplify the original drum parts, and generally not care if he was giving a shitty performance. Whether or not that was amplified by his activism is debatable, but those who say people don't like Lars' drumming because of Napster and Napster only are not getting the whole picture.
As for Van, since most of the stuff he's listened to were studio recordings from their classic era, he doesn't see why people call out his drumming because, from what he hears, it's all good. If we were to show him various performances from the late 1990s and 2000s era, he would see what people mean. There are numerous compilations of Lars' fuck ups and most drum professionals will tell you his technique is very off.
@@TheBlackQueen
It’s become a technique of mine to say shit that I think without researching it to see if someone will call me out on my ignorance. So to you I say, thank you for the education. I grew up listening to those old albums and they run through my veins.
I just looked up lars fails and holy shit. One comment nailed it and said “how can a guy have one job and to it for 40 years and only get worse at it”. He’s like the benjamin buttons of drumming skills.
I couldn’t believe how bad he screws up. Reminds me of a drummer I left a band over.
Well, he used to be good anyway
Cheers.
@@TheBlackQueen Very true, your comments about Lars drumming skills. I have two drummer friends who studied jazz drumming and applied those skills to their rock playing. They say when you get past the power and flash, Lars is not a great drummer.
"Chop your breakfast on a mirror. " He is talking about Coke. How this drug takes a hold of your life and controls you. Coke is the Master.
I don't think the song is specifically about coke. It's about all drugs. All addicts end up in a very similar situation, being controlled by the drug itself.
@@trev6783 yes thats why the Needlework and fix me lyrics. James will mimic a needle sometimes at the "fix me" lyric.
It's interesting that I always thought the same thing. Seemed pretty obvious, not only with that line but "Your life burns faster..." etc. However, I have been assaulted for decades for claiming it. "NO it's about ALL addiction!!!" LOL
It’s not just about coke. There are many drugs that can be chopped and snorted from a mirror, also many injectable drugs. It’s about the controlling hold drugs have on a person, no matter what you drug of choice is!
@@lisaprince6996 It certainly CAN be related to any drug of choice or any life threatening addiction for that matter and many people over the years have associated it with just that, but it does seem to be talking about cocaine specifically in this song. Despite what you *can* snort off of a mirror, the phrase "chop your breakfast on a mirror" is typically associated with cocaine but also lines like "your life burns faster," are indicative of the cocaine experience. However, as stated it can be related to any life controlling addiction and I see no issue with doing that.
Metallica gives you a life's lesson
Thank you for this reaction inside the Discord Fam!!! As a second listen and first time with headphones was nice to see you enjoyed it.
Verse 1: Heroine
Verse 2: Cocaine
Verse 3: Alcohol
Chorus : The Power of the Addiction
It's about drug addiction, we are the puppets to a master that's destroying us with promises of temporary bliss. That melodic slow solo represents the high, and then it speeds up again with that harsh guitar solo representing the withdrawals and the cravings for more.
I DEFINITELY remember the first time you reacted to this because it was that reaction that brought me to your channel. I also remember being VERY impressed by your reaction, And i have to say even though I I'm not very active part I am VERY proud of the FAMILY You have created with this channel. MUCH LOVE & RESPECT
Have you ever listened to Master of Puppets? Okay, have you ever listened to Master of Puppets....on weed?
🤣🤣🤣
Red team go! Red team go!
Hahahahaha, I just watched that movie!
Ah the enhancement comment.
Lol. Great movie.
Knowing what this song is about since it was released, I laughed when you said "pimps and hoes". Hilarious
It took me a long time to appreciate Metallica
Proud LFR family member here! Paused it at 6:30 -ish after your pimp theory. (EDIT: Redeemed yourself at 12:00!) Nothing wrong with looking for meaning in songs and trying to figure out what they are about. Your guess makes sense and I can understand your argument for it. However, the Master is all the drugs of abuse: Alcohol, Heroin, Cocaine, whatever. It controls your life, rules over every decision you make, and then eventually kills you. This song is broken into three distinct parts musically: Part 1 is the frantic search for the fix, Part 2 is slow and melodic and it is the high after the fix, Part 3 is the building rage of needing the next fix. It is a masterpiece about the nightmare of addiction. Absolutely love your reactions, keep it up!
He knew what it was about from the start he says shit to trigger people which increases comments which gets RUclips to favor his channel a little more. It's smart really.
Like others have posted, this song is 100% about addiction. To be fair it took me years to figure that out lol but once it clicked in my head, I realized immediately that's why there's a beautiful interlude halfway through the song which is about feeling high.
There have so many songs that I've heard a hundred times that have taken on a whole new vibe just from listening to them for the first time with headphones. 💜🤘
One of the best songs ever. Lyrics awesome, music awesome and thanks for reacting to this classic.
"Fix Me"
*Did he say "Kick some ass?"*
"Fix Me"
*He definitely said "Kick some ass!"*
...what?
He had me dying with that 😂
My drug of choice was alcohol, I done some awful things drunk. Sober now.
I have seen Metallica Live 23 times in 9 different states. My first was in Kansas City MO with Slayer and Aromred Saint. I was 15. And Jan been hooked since
I’m addicted to this song. 😎
Also this song is 100% about drug addiction.
Damn right
Love the reaction. Definitely a thumbs up. Yeah. Not a pimp. It's a song about a relationship between a person and their drugs
“he definitely said kick some ass” .... it literally says fix me on screen infront of you 🤣🤣🤣
He didn’t say kick @$$, he said fix me lol
Booger Sugar! I feel off the damn bed laughing. 🤣
Fell lol
4:45 I lost my shit when you paused it and said you thought it was about pimps and hoes. I almost laid on the ground and rolled around. That really caught me off guard the way you said it!
I still wonder how someone is going to think this song is about "pimps and hoes"
It’s primarily about drugs but James Hetfield said that it was written so that the “master” could be interpreted as many different things.
Exactly. The bigger picture is what controls you, drugs was simply a reference point to the overall concept which is also the overall theme of the album
That car reaction is what introduced me to your channel bro it's been quite the ride since !! Happy to see your growth and success on RUclips and keep on
That was some pretty encouraging, and very classy comments, he made about RUclipsrs at the end of the song, especially since a lot of us are lifted up, or at the very least entertained by them - oh, and a few get pissed off.
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.
James screams " Speak to me" right before the guitar solo referring to how guitarists can "make their guitars sing" if they are really good.
No he says fix me
@@randycomerford2038 I am pretty sure I am right because I have the guitar book for master of puppets and I believe it says " Speak to me" but its been a while since I have actually looked in the book. I will have to double check tonight.
@@deitydam Definitely double check, cause its fix me.
The song, as lead singer James Hetfield explained, "deals pretty much with drugs. How things get switched around, instead of you controlling what you're taking and doing, it's drugs controlling you."
Metallica is outstanding live!!
I'll be camping this Friday, even further out in the sticks than I already am lol Some much needed time out in the woods with some close friends is just what the doctor ordered for this ol' boy. Fishing, good eats, a few cold beers, a few snorts of real mountain 'shine lol, a bit o' smokin', and a lot o' storytellin'...sounds like my kinda weekend, indeed. Will definitely check out your Metallica album reaction Monday, though, to be sure 🤘
This song is about how drugs destroys people not about pimps. I was born and raised in D.C. Good to see someone from the D.M.V. reacting to different types of music. I listen to all types of music brother. #HTTR AND THE D.M.V. Next reaction should be to some GOGO. Maybe JUNKYARD "GOING HARD"
Or the S&M live. They're playing with a symphony too.
They kill it live. I got to work concert security in Dallas for 4 shows. I got paid $5.49, I think, per hour to work shows. This was the only show that I worked that was not in the front seated section, i was up on the first balcony row. I swear, this crowd had NO issues at all. Worst crowd ever was NSync. Those little 10 year old girls…. Jesus! They had no idea theyvould not go up front, and I couldn’t kick their asses, because THEY WERE 10! Then their Moms with the line, “My daughter is up there! I have to go get her!” Totally uncontrolled crowd. That was just bonus blah, blah, blah. 😂
One of the best songs ever. That section between the beginning of the interlude and the chugging riff after the solo is might be my favorite 2 minutes in music.
Obey your drug, I rule you and pump your veins. Heavy song. I had this album back in the day.
Love seeing people reactions to this album! So many memories every time i hear this from when i was young
I can't wait to see which album you pick!
Liliac band
The song is about addiction in general, it controls you, the urge for more consumes you, slowly kills you, the change in tempo is when you are mellow (on a high) then the craving comes back So Coke/booze etc is the Master of puppets. The addicted person is the puppet.
Its about drugs and how drugs destroy people
Saw them live 3 times between 88 and 90, at the 1989 show, I actually had blood coming from one ear!
When you called cocaine "Booger sugar" I couldn't stop laughing. Great show man! P.S. Everyone stay away from that nasty ass booger sugar.
I wanna go back to these days when this was new. The 80's ruled.
FINALLY!!
This dude is the best air drummer I’ve ever seen
James' inspiration was, he was at a party and where people where shooting coke and seeing that make him feel sick and that's how MOP was born.
trust me every metal song sounds better with headphones
He is talking about addictive drugs. The music takes you through the addiction journey. "I "will run through you. Now, I rule you too"!
I'mma give you props for the pimp analogy though. It's a different kind of addiction when one needs a boost of self esteem, even though they know that relationship --pimps, cocaine--is killing them.
Yeah...
When old dudes say "You like Metallica?! What era?!?!"
You know what we mean now. 🤣😎
And the rest of us roll our eyes!
I'm reading through the comments, and it's clear some people are missing the subtle humor you're bringing. 🤷🏼♂️
I see you my guy! Also your first listen to this song has had me coming back since...
Speaking of which I miss that battery operated, "zoom zoom" or whatever it's called, noise maker.
The Boogie Sugar is THE MASTER!
Pimps and hoes lmao. Love it. You had it with the "booger sugar". It's about drug addiction. The crazy fast music symbolizes the withdrawal taking hold. When it breaks down into the melodic part that's finally achieving the high, but it quickly goes away and is replaced by the aggressive music signifying the demand to satisfy the addiction returning even stronger and with more control.
And justice for all, tough album for first listen but I think it’s the best album they ever did !!!
Awesome as always brother! Love the pimp theory. I heard another person say it was about BDSM. I'm still with the theory of it being about addiction, mainly the booga suga. I even think the music is written to relay the ups and downs of said addiction. Just sayin.
Of course it is about drug addiction and yes the songs up and downs and solo mimic the addiction: desperation for the fix, being high, withdraw and more desperation to get the next fix.
They playing that hell out that bass and them top strings.lol
Great song to work out to, also. Really gets the blood pumping!
Who ever told you that knows nothing about Metallica or what this song is actually talking about. It has to do with drugs and how they control your life. That’s all you think about and its the Master of all your dreams and thoughts. I know I’m a recovering addict. One of my favorite songs of there’s among others. Check out Garage Days!!! Must hear!!!
Missed on that one, nothing to do with pimps
He knew what it was about from the start he says shit to trigger people which increases comments which gets RUclips to favor his channel a little more. It's smart really.
@@Levi_Amongst_the_Watchers You are right, he does do that. It also covers his mistakes.
Thank you. You're definitely a Metallica fan.
@@jennifercardwell258 Since 86
@@Levi_Amongst_the_Watchers ..but now that I know that, I will loose interest..bad choice at the end.. don't like the fake
He said fix me. Later he changed it to pancakes go as a tribute to their late bass player Cliff Burton 😭😭
This is the definition of metal in my book! I got to see them play in Vermont around 1988. The Cult opened.
No matter what it's about, I enjoyed your reaction. Thanks.
I've heard you comment on the drummer in many reactions. Yes Lars is awesome for Metallica. Have you yet listened to any Five finger death punch? If not, you should definitely check out their stuff. One song that the drummer sounds like a machine gun is "lift me up"!!! Yo, you won't regret this. But seriously, any FFDP songs!!
Also check Nandi Bushell she is 10 years old and challenges David Grohl of the Foo Fighters on a drum battle you will get a kick out of it.
Few bands to check out:
Metal Church "Badlands" "Gods of Wrath"
Battle Beast "Bringer of Pain"
Armored Saint "Raising Fear"
Helloween "I Want Out"
Grim Reaper "See You in Hell"
Savatage "Chance"
Dream Theater "Under a Glass Moon"
Metallica...a favorite. Needlework the way is a reference to..injectable things. Sucking darkest clear is another reference to that. Then the booger sugar. He says "Fix ME!!" People turn to drugs for the comfort, the quick fix, but it doesn't fix anything. That interlude is the high, steadily getting more and more intense as the cravings come back, as told by the music. Then the "Where's the dreams I've been after" is that moment of clarity, between it all, that the addict knows something is wrong here, but very few actually act upon. Then it goes back into the addiction. A rhyme without a reason, a life out of season....a person just waiting to die....has completely given up to the drug. It's an intense song.
I laughed so damn hard I head desked and hurt myself when you said it was about pimps and hoes. God, I needed that, thank you.
I swear, everytime you say "a pimp" all I hear in my head is "a pimp named Slickback!" 🤣🤣🤣
I had a friend back in the day with an advanced fully 3d Dolby amp in his car, this song felt like gettin high all by itself.
Master of Puppets is the best album that Metallica put out. They were all in their early 20’s when it was released. I’m fortunate that I got to see them on the Master tour with Cliff (RIP) playing bass.
Ride the Lightning is better, to me at least, but they are clearly #1 and #2. Cliff's genius shines bright on both.
@@MrCBTman I like all the early albums.
Another great reaction! Thanks for the work you do cheering folks up in a tense time! It just so happens, as an Italian, I excel in all things pasta and we gotta get some meat on those bones my man! 👍✌️

One was deeper than the other pause lmao great reaction bro
5:00 is probably one of the funniest things ive heard in a long time, i spent a solid 10 minutes laughing to the point i was wheezing, 😂😂😂 not to say that your wrong, but thats the best reaction to something I've ever heard
Van, you're ready. Metallica- battery live in Seattle 89.
The song I’ve been waiting for!
Check out the band that is "Liliac " . They do a tribute to this song .
OK. This song is about "Addiction" Cocain to be specific. Later they came out with a movie called some kind of monsters. It about James Addiction and alcoholism and it effect on the band.
Yeah I just got an old-school Jean jacket and I’m gonna do it all retro style with a back patch and I got the master of puppets album cover as a back patch to put on it and a slipknot patch
"How many changes do they have...?"
All of 'em
Fiztacuffz - Put your headphones on
Also, a song with great production on.😅
Listen to their song Nothing Else Matters or their cover of Turn the Page
Same concept as"Paradise City" the dope and fame can get you.
I liked the pimp analogy made me think
He said "fix me" the lyrics are in the video you're watching my dude lol Great reaction though.
It’s a song about addiction
The songs about the addiction and reliance on drugs
