Album Notes MASTER OF PUPPETS was Metallica's last album with bass player Cliff Burton. Burton was killed in a traffic accident. He was replaced by Jason Newsted.Metallica: James Hetfield (vocals, guitar); Kirk Hammett (guitar); Cliff Burton (bass); Lars Ulrich (drums).Recorded at Sweet Silence Studios, Copenhagen, Denmark from September through December, 1985.Metallica's irresistible rise to the top continued with this enigmatic 1986 album. A constant touring unit by this point, their combination of light and dark and their deft staccato delivery, especially on the title track, came brusquely through. Their ever-lengthening arrangements (three songs came in at over eight minutes), bolstered by the precise snap of Hetfield's vocals, testified to their undeniable power. The striding "Battery," the darkly lit "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)," as well as the complex instrumental, "Orion," all gave powerful testament to their ever-developing skill and vision. | |||||||||||
Reviews Review created: 17/02/08 by: I am a big fan of Metallica - they're pretty much my favourite band at the mooment - so I bought this album to help me on my way to completing my ever growing collection of Metallica CD's. I think this is by far one of their better albums. The songwriting's brilliant, the songs are great and the instrumental track on here is pretty impressive. If you don't have this one already, then do yourself a favour and go buy it - you won't regret it! Review ID: 10000000005691952 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
