Metallica  Master of Puppets 

The #1 Greatest Heavy Metal Album of All Time! 
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 MASTER OF PUPPETS was Metallica's last album with bass player Cliff Burton,
who was killed in a traffic accident. He was replaced by Jason Newsted.
Even though
Master of Puppets didn't take as gigantic a leap forward as Ride the Lightning,
it was the band's greatest achievement, hailed as a masterpiece by critics far
outside heavy metal's core audience. It was also a substantial hit, reaching the
Top 30 and selling three million copies despite absolutely nonexistent airplay.
Instead of a radical reinvention, Master of Puppets is a refinement of past
innovations. In fact, it's possible to compare Ride the Lightning
and Master of Puppets song for song and note striking similarities between
corresponding track positions on each record (although Lightning's closing
 instrumental has been bumped up to next-to-last in Master's running order).
That hint of conservatism is really the only conceivable flaw here. Though it
isn't as startling as Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets feels more unified,
both thematically and musically. Everything about it feels blown up to epic
proportions (indeed, the songs are much longer on average), and the band
feels more in control of its direction. You'd never know it by the lyrics,
though -- in one way or another, nearly every song on Master of Puppets
deals with the fear of powerlessness. Sometimes they're about hypocritical
authority (military and religious leaders), sometimes primal, uncontrollable
human urges (drugs, insanity, rage), and, in true H.P. Lovecraft fashion,
sometimes monsters. Yet by bookending the album with two slices of thrash
mayhem ("Battery" and "Damage, Inc."), the band reigns triumphant through
sheer force -- of sound, of will, of malice. The arrangements are thick and
muscular, and the material varies enough in texture and tempo to hold interest
through all its twists and turns. Some critics have called Master of Puppets the best
heavy metal album ever recorded; if it isn't, it certainly comes close. This is the new re-mastered version (2017)  contains the head-bangin classics;
