on the radio that I had one of those "Whoa, what is this?" moments. I was already a big rocker by that point after listening to many hard rock bands in the years prior, but when I heard those monstrous riffs and that crushing tone, my life was changed forever. This is one of those records where I can't pick | Blog author: Alex Stojanovic OBEY YOUR MASTER!!! Today (March 3, 2016) marks the 30th anniversary of one of the greatest records of all time: Metallica's Master Of Puppets: the record that broke thrash metal through to the masses in 1986 and it still remains as vital to this day and will be for years to come. Metallica has been a huge part of my life and a great influence on me ever since I got into metal back in 2004 just before I turned 12. They were my gateway metal band. I played the Black Album over and over again for a good portion of the summer and that was my first dip of the toe in the metal waters, but it wasn't until the fall of 2004 that I heard "Master Of Puppets" |
one favourite song because every song is a home run, right from "Battery" all the way through to "Damage Inc.".
To this day, Master Of Puppets remains not only my favourite Metallica record and one of my top three favourite thrash records of all time, but one of my top five favourite albums of all time.
