This country needs more videos like this. This shit unites us rather than everything else I see, which divides us. The fact that she has the open mind to appreciate this type of music is also really cool to see. You guys definitely just got a new fan \m/

Ride the Lightning made me a metalhead. Fight fire with fire. I almost broke down when they played it live the second time they came to my country.

There is not one bad song on this album

16 years old. Battery. Never heard anything like it before. I will never forget that moment in my life.

Yeah, can't wait for the "One" reaction because I do believe it's one of the greatest songs ever written.

Holy shit dude! You got it right where no other reaction channel has yet. Battery and MOP back to back. Well done!

It's always a pleasure to see someone "experience" early Metallica. Not listening, Experiencing...

Metallica's Master Of Puppets the first heavy metal album preserved by US Library of Congress.

The year was 1993 when I turned 16 years old and that would be the year when everything would change. I was big into rap at the time, but I did grow up listening to Metallica throughout my childhood. But even though I grew up listening to Metallica, they definitely weren't my go to for the kind of music I loved. My first car was a 1987 Grand Am and I had a decent stereo system (two 12-inch subs and other mids and highs) in it. My best friend (a metal head and still my best friend today) and I would cruise around in my car into the wee hours of the night mostly listening to my rap and hip-hop music. That must had been torture for him because I don't think he really liked that kind of music at all, but in my mind, that kind of music was the best kind to play on a stereo like mine. But little did I know... I ended up upgrading my sound system in the Grand Am to six 12-inch subs as well as 16 other speakers making up all the mids and highs (22 speakers in all). This required taking the backseat out and having a wall of speakers installed (all the amps took up most of the trunk). After the upgrade was complete, it was time for another night of cruising and listening to music with my best friend. However, this time, my friend brought his CD case with him. We headed down the road and he loaded up the Metallica album (the one often referred to as the Black album) . He selected Wherever I May Roam, I tweaked the EQ, and turned it up...way up! I had heard that song before, but never on a high-end stereo system. If you're familiar with the song, then you know about the drums in the beginning and then the bass that kicks in. Let me just say "holy sh!t!" I had never tried drugs before, but when the sounds from twenty-two speakers screamed to life from a wall just inches away from my head, it was like a drug had instantly hit me full force! My friend and I looked at each other right after the bass kicked in and in that very moment, I was converted to one of Metallica's biggest fans. Now it's 2019 and I've never been without some kind of decent stereo system and it's all because I have to listen to my Metallica loud and with great sound quality. So that's my story, but I will add that this was my story about becoming a fan of Metallica. I own all their music, but I don't consider myself to be a "metal head" because other than Metallica and a select few other bands, I never really liked a lot of the other metal stuff out there. Metallica just resonates with me more than a lot of the other stuff. I'm sure there are people who would say that I'm missing out (and I very well might be), but Metallica is my drug of choice. Love the channel, keep up the good work, and you two take care. Respectfully, Brandon -

This is my favorite album I was a teenager when I listen to this and it don't get old

YOU NEED TO LET HER WATCH CLIFF'M ALL

“What a way to end a song!......” LOL!.... Nope, INTERLUDE!

Hell yeah , METALLICA !!! Greetings from Croatia !!!

Legit I LOVE how into it she was during the solo in Battery This has been my fav band since 1991, my first concert ever was Guns N Roses/ Metallica/ Faith No More in 1992 when I was 9 and my older cousin took me to the concert while "baby sitting" me when my parents were out of state, and just two weeks ago I saw Metallica for the 24th time on the final show of the tour in Cleveland and I absolutely love seeing someone hearing the old classics like this for the first time. Real talk I am so energized by this reaction vid and I feel a certain type of happiness seeing the (Metallica) family grow like this. This is exactly what the Metallica family is all about. Welcome to the family Sistah! As a sidenote, I got my father into the band around 1996, he love Sad But True, and we ended up seeing them a few times together between 1994 and 2001. He sadly passed away from cancer two days after Christmas in 2016, and my fondest memories with my dad were the times we saw Metallica together. It really hits me right in the heart when I see someone new get into the band like this, and literally brings tears to my eyes as it reminds me of how I got my father into the band that I love so much. I hope you two do many more Metallica reactions together.

My first major introduction to Metallica when I was a kid was One. It blew me away and from then on a went into their back catalogue getting all their albums on vinyl and eventually having to replace them all due to wear.

I knew she was gonna cry! We all do! So good!

I'm 26, born in Russia. In the mid nineties the craze was 80's metal, so I grew up on a nice mix of Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, KISS, Iron Maiden, Priest, and most importantly the Scorpions. So I was technically a metalhead from birth. However, my memory of that holy shit moment came in seventh grade when I heard Trivium's Ascendancy for the first time. It all started there. I do want to say that Metallica is just a classic band. No matter how varied, creative, and awesome new metal is, any time Master of Puppets comes on, its time to drop everything and rock the hell out. Peace and love from Russia you two. I love your channel :)

I became metalhead on 8th February 1988. It was Iron Maiden 's Powerslave

It took me a while to get this when it came to Master of Puppets. The lyrics say it all, but when you listen to the music, when you get to that interlude, picture how someone gets their fix when they're high from the drugs they just took. Then the bridge with "Master! Master!".. that's when you want to get your next fix but you're not getting it anymore. That high of what you're getting is an illusion. The solo is when you're crashing and aren't getting that fix anymore. Then you're back into telling the story about drug addiction. It's really heavy and REAL. I heard One first, and primarily the video, which rather freaked me out, and I was 14 at the time, just learning to play guitar, as I was just getting into hard rock. A friend of mine then let me borrow Master of Puppets, in which lyrically I didn't get MoP, but I did like Battery. What got me was Orion. I was already a hard rock guy at the time, but this... this got me into metal, and ... holy crap, 30 years to the month!!! I've been a black guy who's a metalhead with no regrets.

This was the same year I went from a preppy chick to a metal head. This song right here started it. I remember losing my mind because I'd never heard anything like it in my life (they didn't play metal on the raido back in the day), and I fell in love! Thanks to the chick that took me over to some boy's house that she liked, and to the boy who played this for us. Ya'll changed my life that day

Tony Iommi (the guitarist for black sabbath) invented metal. As a young man he lost the tips of two of his fingers in an accident at a sheet metal factory and because of that he had to drop tune his guitar and puts caps on his fingers to play it correctly. This is what gave us the more sinister sound of heavy metal. In a weirdly poetic way, metal created metal (an accident at a sheet metal factory created metal music) cool huh?

My first exposure to Metallica was as a 13-year old watching thru premiere of Enter Sandman on Headbanger's Ball. Changed my life, for real. I was so crazy for them I begged my mom to get me their album for birthday or Christmas. Bothered her to no end. Come time to open the package and it was Master of Puppets. I was so disappointed that it wasn't the one I knew. Felt like she ruined my gift. It didn't even have the same guy in the band. I conceded and went to bed quietly upset. I decided to pop the cassette into my player and put those headphones on. From the drop of the flamenco style acoustic to the very last note...I was blown away at what I heard. I played it twice back to back and got in trouble for staying up til 2am on a school night. 25 years later, the music still gets me and seeing Sistah react as a brand new lover of metal affects me in a deep, soulful way. Journey on, Sistah! \m/ \m/

Lol, there is something cathartic seeing someone feel the way you felt the first time you heard a song. The quote "The shortest distance between two people is a song" really comes true here!!

GREAT REACTION! I am 55 and have been a Metallica fan since day one.I had to have the record store order the album for me The excitement of you experiencing hearing MOP the first time imagine being a 20 year old metal head and putting the needle down and hearing the build up to "Hit The Lights" and then they just exploded. I knew right then and there I had found the music I had been looking and waiting for my whole life. MOP is my favorite album.I never tire of any Metallica.Play "Hit The Lights" for Sistah and tell her that was the first song they ever released on a record an album called Metal Massacre that was recorded by Brian Segal a collection of local bands and Metallica made the cut. Metallica for life folks!

Wolf is right I think a lot of Metallica fans love Ride the Lightning.. its my favorite album too. As for Master of Puppets, its definitely a masterpiece and is considered by a lot of ppl; whether they like Metallica or not as one of the greatest if not the greatest metal albums of all time. This album influenced 90% of the metal bands that followed, and is recognized by their peers and even older bands. Even though this album came out before I was born, its definitely one of the albums that introduced me to metal. Even though I knew a few black album songs before from radio and stuff, Master of Puppets is the one that grabbed my attention. Since I was in high school in the early 2000's metal wasnt at the forefront of music at first. Hip hop was in the spotlight with the coming up of Eminem and I, like most kids back then was into that. Bands like Slipknot, System of a Down and Avenged Sevenfold were the metal bands of my generation that brought metal back in the spotlight and made me dig further into their influences which made me discover older stuff like Pantera and made me open my mind to newer metal bands that came out in the 2000s. This is a great reaction to a classic, you guys never disappoint.

The moment I became a metalhead was when my cousin put on the blizzard of ozz CD in '83 and "I don't know" started building up, then kicked in. It changed everything for me musically.

Jeez...These two songs changed everything for me too. Though I was in 8th grade, I was blown away. What a great time in music and thrash ruled! I so love Wolf's description of his first time hearing it (as it's so similar to my own) and seeing Sistah's first time and her appreciation for them is priceless. Thanks so much for another great video!

There is nothing better than those first two songs on that album. The way it opens up and is just an onslaught. Its just so awesome.

Master of Puppets was the thing that made me a metalhead, I was in 4th grade, 10 years old, fuck this was something else...

I agree with you on the Ride the lightning album best album and what a lot of people who just got into Metallica like during the Black album and after fail to realize those first three albums they were kids when they wrote that they were all in their early teens and early twenties and look at the music and the lyrics that they came up with same thing with Megadeth meaning lyrics with substance I mean I love Slayer venom Exodus and of course mercyful Fate but look at the time the era and their age changing music history forever great reaction and love the cliff in the background and the clips thanks love you both have a kick-ass New year

Hey wolf and sistah, I've been following you for about 6 months now and I need to share something. Wolf.... being a person who at 14 heard metallica for the first time, master of puppets also, 1988. It changed my life. Forever. And the way you take the time to explain metallica is something no other channel but yours does. And that's because of you wolf. Yes to experience tie music is great but it was when it came out. Metallica isn't just music. And I know sistah appreciates the back story. More ppl would if they really knew metallica story. Love you guys. Thank you

Your Master of Puppets story is almost exactly like mine. For me, 11th grade automotive class with Mr. Kovach 1987. A friend brought a walkman and played Master of Puppets for me. From that very moment the song started playing, I was hooked on Metallica. I'm going to be 50 years old this year and still love it.

I'm 40 years old. Never has anyone expressed their feelings about metallica so closely to my own. U nearly made a tear fall from my eye. 🤝thank you sir. And ma'am 😘

My Metal journey started when a friend of mine pulled me out of the after services chat at church and took me out to his parents' car. He says, "you've gotta hear this song!" He slides a clear plastic cassette into the player and turns the volume knob to 8. The speakers, quite simply, spoke to me, "Unta, Gleebin, Gloutin, Glowbin." LOVED IT!!! A few weeks later, I was going through my Mom's records for something to listen to while I did my chores and found, Van Halen - 1984. INCREDIBLE!!!! Between those two albums, I was hooked!!!!! Skip to October 1988, a co-worker, knowing I'm a drummer, says, "you've gotta hear this band! The drum fills and the guitar fills are often in sync with each other and it's killer!" He puts in, ... and Justice for All. I have to admit, I didn't care for it. So then he played, Master of Puppets; I REALLY didn't care that either. I was more into Mötley Crüe, Tesla, and Guns-n-Roses. So he loans me his, Justice CD and says give it few listens. It took a while, but I finally came around to appreciate it and later became a huge fan. (Yes, I love Lars' playing) Interestingly, I disliked Led Zeppelin for the longest time, until I became a Metallica fan. It was my love and understanding of Metallica that brought me around to understand and grow to love Zeppelin. Thanks to my Mom and many friends over the years, music has been a constant companion through my whole life. Metal Forever, Baby!!! 🤘🏼🔥🤘🏼🔥 RAWK ON! 😎

Im 43 and still rockin like Dokken. Love Metallicas first four albums.

1990 5th period Shopclass Friday’s were cool. We could listen to music. So one Friday I wheel in a tv/vcr cart from the library. I pop in a VHS. I make everyone sit. On comes the official video for “ONE”. The look on their 13 year old faces was Priceless! Never the same after that experience. Metal head was born!!!

For me best album of history.........heavy...perfect solos........perfect melodys...all is incredible metallica my favorite band forever

I am right there with you wolf, I liked them from their start. I also think ride the lightning was their coming into their own. I am 48 now, and I remember when I heard this cassette for the first time. It was a friday after school, I played that album on my boom box BACK TO BACK all weekend!!! I had to buy it again after three weeks because I wore the first one out. Truly a masterpiece of music & a VERY fond memory😎😎😎😎😎

The day I became a metalhead was in 1996. I was 10 years old and mostly had only heard my fathers music (the doors, beatles, stones etc..). That stuff was pretty good. Then I saw the Bulls On Parade music video on MTV. Changed my life forever. After that I started exploring music for myself.

I wish there was a LOVE button instead of a LIKE button. Watching Sistah listen to Metallica is EPIC!

The album that got me into metal music was Master Of Puppets. Greetings from Poland - Smoku 1970

What got me into metal was also Master of Puppets, but the S&M version, which was the first I heard. I was 14 when that album came out and when my brother showed it to me I was just so impressed. I have been listening to classical music since I was baby in my crib (my mother has told me that I was transfixed whenever I listened to it). I could have never imagined that metal and classical/symphonic music could be a match made in heaven. But they totally are. The Call of the Cthulu on that album was jawdropping but it was the interlude of Master of Puppets that won me over. It is so stunningly beautiful and it has so much power at the same time. I loved Sistah's reaction during that part because it reminded me of my own :)

Okay, true story here. I'm the same age. 39. At age 7 in 1986, we had to move from our house into a new neighborhood. This one day some teens who were hanging out at my house and were playing music (my oldest brother was 17) and I hear "Welcome to where time stands still, no one leaves and no one will............." and "Saaaaaniitaaariiiuuuuummmmm" and that was it! Thanks to my Dad, before that I had heard Black Sabbath, Zeppelin and everything. I grew up in Motown so I heard everything as a child, but this was new and I immediately was hooked.

Just subscribed & am going from oldest to newest as often as i can. I love u guys reacting! Ive seen Metallica over 100 times, globally, since ‘81 (i was 6 first time!), & they have never disappointed! They are truly the greatest live band ever besides legends. 🖤

Metallica was one of the first bands I listened to when I was getting into metal. Will always have love for them.

Ladies and gentleman, MetallicA

The best metal one-two-punch to exist...I was 16 when I heard it first....at a party...well...a party that lasted five days...someone put this cassette into the auto-reverse player...and it played...for...five...days...straight....it changed me forever! so glad you could experience it!

I love you guys! I became addicted to some reaction channels lately, but this one is maybe the best one I saw so far! I'm following you since yesterday, I saw a few videos and I will see as many I can. I love how passionate Wolf is about music and explaining it to Sistah, and on the other hand I love the fact that Sistah is so open and understanding :) You remind me of me and my wife, only my wife has a little less patience for me :D Anyway, my moment of becoming a metalhead, 12-13 years old, turn on tv and "Unforgiven" just started playing. Fell in love with Metallica in that exact moment! Love them ever since! :)

The KINGS of Transitions !!! And absolutely YES... Ride the Lightning is the Best album to me... the spirit of Metallica !!! Regards & kiss from France...

Wolf: As soon as Battery started I could see it in your eyes, your mind went BACK... exactly like mine did. Sistah: I LOVE LOVE LOVE how you react to music, you don't just listen to it you FEEL it! I'm so glad to have found your channel, I'm happy you chose to share your metal journey with us, NEVER change, Sistah! For me it was a friend introducing me to the Metallica Black Album, it was all downhill from there.

Battery and Master of Puppets have bittersweet feelings for me. Both songs were what cemented me into Metallica, but they were also the first two songs I listened to with my ex. She had never heard these songs and she and I listened to them together. So yeah, now I can’t listen to these without feeling a slight pain in my chest whilst feeling inspired and energized too. Also, love your content. Keep it up.

The first time I heard Metallica was on 8th grade, 4 of my friends skipped school that day and we jump in the car of one of them, he had a subwoofer stereo, and plug enter sandman...When I heard that intro with Lars's drums on my virgin ears, I was like what the hell is this! I felt intoxicated in a brilliant awesome overwhelming way! Long story short. I listen to the black album, and then save money to get the justice album and that was all she wrote, greatest band ever!

I was just thinking about this when I ran across some receipts for Quiet Riot, Twisted Sister, Ratt, Motley Crue I had in a drawer since '83, then when I heard Ride the Lightning and then Master of Puppets, I was sold on Metallica. MOP is my favorite album from Metallica and Death Symbolic or Human overall. I actually acquired a bass string from a friend of Cliff Burton and some other items that will go with me to the grave. Huge fan of Cliff. And a bit of trivia, Lars used Rick Allen's Ludwig Black Beauty snare drum used to make Pyromania on the MOP album.

Battery in walkman and to listen Battery in the 80's, with inevitable bursts of laughter because it was so fresh, new and fast when compared to older school heavy metal.

U can say that I became a metalhead twice, for the first time when I was around 6 years old hanging with my brother (7 years older) listening to Kill Em All and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, followed by a period where I completely forget about metal in general, only to rediscover it in my late teens 17-19 in my darkest moments (deeply depressed) through Black, Thrash, Death, Melodic Death. Bands like Dimmu Borgir, Metallica, Kreator, At The Gates, Sólstafir, Momentum (Iceland) among a legion of others made me a metalhead forever.....how can I not be the genre helped me take the first steps out of depression

Love it! Great reaction you guys!!! :D

You guys always make me smile. Thank you for that. Love your reaction videos.

The first 3 Metallica LPs truely changed the music history....after all these years,i can sing still all of their songs.....timeless experience !!!....MORE !!!

Sistah is able to explore her deepest feelings... in all that different music styles can offer.... Sometimes I feel the music as deeply as Sistah does..... but she is able to experience it more often.... What a great gift to have.. : -) Another great reaction.... and analysis!....

Welcome to the fold, Sistah! The world or metal is deep and you will find yourself discovering things you love deeply, and lots you won't like at all. Part of the fun is digging around and discovering talent where you never thought it existed. Enjoy, and again, welcome!!

I think the first Metallica song I heard was Fade to Black. Amazing!! But when I heard Kill’em All? Mind Blown. Hooked. Metallica! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Well that makes my fastest click ever. Time to pop some popcorn, settle in and pretend I'm a teenager again!

Love y'all's videos and been enjoying the Metal Journey. It's great seeing someone experience these classics for the first time, and also giving an actual analysis and backstory/personal experiences with the songs in the way that you all do. Other react channels lose that level of personality because you don't get to see why and how the songs are important to them; and I think that's what sets you on a different level. Your videos feel like a joined experience rather than a "Let's Listen" approach, and I dig that. As for me, my Metal journey also began with Metallica. My earliest Metal memories are of the Black album. I used to listen to it while riding around with my dad, who passed when I was 10. I was a kid in the late 80s and early 90s, so I didn't get a lot of Metal exposure back then. It was still a common idea that Metal was in some way a negative influence on kids; I find that rather archaic at this point. Of course, I later went on to experience the rest of Metallica's catalog. The Black Album isn't my favorite album of their's, but personally, it is their most important.

You have no idea how much Metallica, specifically this entire album, has changed my life. This brings back so much childhood memories. Loved how you were able to record Sistah’s reaction on back to back Metallica songs. Very ingenious idea. Keep it up!

When I found my true calling as a metalhead, I was already listening to Iron Maiden, Ozzy, Judas, ACDC but was looking for heavier, faster, more aggressive then one glorious evening in 1984 (15 y/o) I was at a friends house and heard Metallicas Ride the Lightning and Venoms At War with Satan. Admittedly I was a bit scared at first (especially Venom was very evil) but I was hooked...thrash was what I was all about. Not long after Slayer Reign in Blood came out...and they quickly became the best for me.

You simply can't go wrong with anything from MoP!! Great reaction as always, guys! Greetings from Argentina.

I love your guys reaction channel, sistah I love how you explain your feelings off of the music and your emotions are worth the watch. Wolf I love how you give a breakdown of the song and tell meanings and interpretations you guys are awesome.

Justice Baby! First metal experience. Listening to the album, loving it, then ONE came on. Holy sshit moment. Rewind and let my friend listen. At end, he said "Whoah, can I hear that again?" lol. BTW we were hip hop heads at the time.

I LOVE THIS REACTION! Her face! She is just so happy to hear this incredible music! Reminds me of way back when...when I heard metal for the first time! The excitement of it, the thrill The wow! Thank you so much for making me smile! Hitting that subscribe button! ROCK ON! 🤘🤘🤘

Hell, yeah!!! Welcome back. Missed you guys reacting to old school metal.

I think Master of Puppets was Metallica's epitome. It felt like the culmination of their first 2 albums: the upbeat tempo of the first album and the slight progressive elements of Ride the Lightning such as acoustic guitars in thrash (which was unheard of at that time). The songs in RTL were longer than their first and this builds on that.

I remember a similar moment myself. I had been into Quiet Riot and Ozzy a little bit, but wasn't yet a confirmed metalhead when I was a young teen and first heard the brand new song (at that time), "One" on MTV (back when they actually played music). It's strange to me looking back that I didn't like it at first, but on the second time listening I was hooked. Then I got a copy of Master of Puppets shortly after and wore it completely out listening to it so many times. Thanks for bringing back some of my favorite memories, Wolf and Sistah! You guys are awesome! Thanks for taking us along on your journey.

MoP still gives me chills! My favorite Metallica album by far! Listening from the beginning takes me back to when I was a kid. Awesome as hell!

Please Sistah react Metallica - One This is my favorite song of Metallica !

That album is genuinely my childhood! I have discovered Metallica at the age of 8/9 thanks to my cousin from Cracow who being on holiday brought up with him few cassettes (not original ones) and played Master and Garage Inc. for me. That was everything i needed. Metallica changed my life, stayed with me throughout the years and they still are with me till this day. They are in my veins. Haven't seen them live yet though unfortunately because of many reasons. As a MetalHead from small little (forgotten by the devil) Polish village haven't had a chance and couldn't afford to see them live. Now i hit 30, things has changed AND i'm going to see them playin' at Twickenham Stadium, London this summer from the Golden Circle standing pitch and i know this experience will be worth every penny i spent. Hail to Metallica! They literally defined me as a person and musician.

Thanks i love this channel!

Stole "and justice for all" on casette tape when I was 15. That was my introduction to metallica. Hooked ever since.

The moment I became a Metalhead was when I discovered Motörhead's Ace of Spades at 15yo. I've always been a gamer and one day there was this AMV of the song on World of Warcraft characters playing in a band. I went to look for the song itself and fell in love with the band and Metal itself and found myself. RIP Lemmy, you beautiful bastard! I hadn't really listened to any Rock or Metal before and always looked weird when I heard songs or intros from G'n'R or any other band because I couldn't grasp the feeling it gives me now.

sistah is feeling the adrenalin! this is the music you take to the gym for a good workout!

Pure natural talent that’s what makes them the greatest thrash metal band ever.

Cliffs contribution will sadly never be matched. You two are great, keep it up

If these songs dont get your adrenaline pumping, then its too late and your already dead....

Guys your energy is insane i really love your videos!! I remember when i first started listening to metal it was during a 4 day trip with school to thesalokiki( 2nd biggest city in greece) from athens.So the day before i had downloaded the first 4 metallica albums.The trip was aprox 6-7 hours and during that time i listened to all the albums and became addicted.Needless to say that trip was the best thing that happened to my music life

Although I grew up listening to Metallica because I heard them on the radio, the time I turned to metal and never looked back was in 1998 at a Misfits show. In between bands the venue played all of the album Obsolete by Fear Factory. Since that moment they have been my favorite band and I have been a diehard metal head.

Smashing through the boundaries Lunacy has found me Cannot stop the battery!

Yep. Master of Puppets did it for me. I remember when I first heard it. Me and my sister got a ride with 2 brothers and they played it. I said, " WHO IS THIS?????" I was done with radio music. I was getting into a little Ozzy and Scorpions before, but this album had me hooked.Such epic albums cover to cover. I was 17.

my new favorite youtube duo.

Wolfe you and I are around the same age. I was in the seventh grade when I first heard Metallica from a class mate as well. These guys blew my mind! Never heard anything so powerful and beautiful! Just totally took me on an adventure like a rollercoaster ride full of emotions! This was definitely the band who helped me find out what and who I am today. A metal head musician! I love watching your videos and your lectures on the music is on point keep it up y'all Rock!

I think Master of puppets holds up just fine. I'm 24, nightwish was the 'first' metal that band that i got into (thanks dad). And MoP is definitely in my top 3 despite not having grown up with it.

She said the drums are so good, so good. GIVE IT TO ME!!! 😆🤘😆🤘😆

1st album i heard was MASTER OF PUPPETS First song Battery in early 1989 - on my walkman headphones walking home from school = awesome -Before that the Heaviest was AC/DC and guns n Roses i was just starting year 8 in Sydney Australia - 14 Years Old

When I was starting high school, I was listening to stuff like Michael Jackson, The Bee Gees, etc. and a friend gave me a cassette of the best of AC/DC up until the beginning of the 80s, mainly from Highway to Hell and Back in Black, and this already opened my mind to the Rock genre, but then once I told him that I loved what I listened to from AC/DC, he sat me down and made me listen to the song Master of Puppets and from the opening riffs, my mind was blown out of my skull and I was a metal head for life. Regarding the meaning of the song, the key line to me is 'Chop your breakfast on a mirror', that pretty much confirmed my suspicions, that it was about addiction to cocaine and as for the gentle passage in the middle of the song, to me I interpreted it as the temporary high after sniffing a line.

I have always been a fan of Metallica. When I hear them I have some strange feeling of satisfaction and content that I don't get with many other bands. I first got into them when I was about maybe 6 years old or so and my dad had the black album and I always listened to that then I got Metallica's Reload album for Christmas when it came out when I was 10 and I was hooked. When I stared almost listing to metal exclusively was when guitar hero 2 and rock band came out and I would contently search for more and more complex music to play and listen to through purchasing dlc, kinda like an addict getting into heavier drugs, and metal was the answer to that. Also around that time I started to play instruments, so in search for more complex music has helped me become a much better musician. Always in pursuit to quench my thirst for knowledge.

Metallica is the greatest band of all time in my opinion. Followed them since mid 80s here in Ireland and bought my first album and justice for all when I was 10. Still listen to them every day. To me all albums up to and including the album the black album are their best albums.

Over 500 comments 😊, this is what I mean as a metal family. Hope you and Wolf have a great weekend!

Yooooo!!! Super hype to watch this!

Perhaps consider checking out some Trivium? One of their recent songs, Betrayer, has gotten a grammy nomination, which makes it worth a look, imo. For me, Motorhead was my first Metal introduction. One of the guys I worked with as a teen introduced me to Overkill. The rest was history.

“Master...” (the song) still gives me goosebumps. Actually, I need to hear the entire album from beginning to end, whenever I listen to it. It’s the same with “Ride...”. These are the two benchmarks in metal albums. IMO

Listening your memories of first hearing Metallica, brought back mine. I had the pleasure of seeing them in May of 1986. They changed my life. I never listened to music the same. Thank you so much.🤘🖤🤘🖤🤘🖤🤘😊🤘

High school.. 11th grade, heard Ride the Lightning and it changed my life. Also best album
