Album Description
Available in:
Master of Puppets (littéralement Maître des Marionnettes) est le troisième album studio du groupe américain de heavy metal Metallica, sorti le 24 février 1986 par Asylum Records et le 9 Juin 2003, il a été certifié six fois disque de platine par la Association Recording Industry of America (RIAA), le disque s'est vendu à six millions de copies aux États-Unis. C'est le dernier album du groupe avec Cliff Burton à la basse, qui est décédé dans un accident de bus en Suède lors d'une tournée pour promouvoir l'album.
C'est un album de huit titre. Les paroles sont toutes plus ou moins inspirées des thèmes de la violence, la guerre, les drogues, la folie, la religion et les monstres. Les chansons Battery, Master of Puppets et Welcome Home (Sanitarium), sont devenus des classiques du groupe qui les interprète à chacun de ses concerts.
Master of Puppets est considéré par beaucoup de fans et de critiques comme l'"un des meilleurs albums de metal". Il reçoit un accueil critique très favorable, ayant largement contribué à faire de Metallica un des principaux groupes de thrash metal et il apparaît d'ailleurs dans la liste des 1001 albums que vous devez écouter avant de mourir.
User Album Review
Master Of Puppets, was their third album, released after their move to major label Elektra Records in 1986, in spite of not containing any singles it was the breakthrough to US rock radio airplay that they'd been looking for.
It’s hard, fast, rock with substance that doesn’t require the listener to wear eye-liner or big fire-hazard hair to enjoy. It also features more serious themes (albeit expressed in a particularly aggressive and direct way) and more complex arrangements than similar acts of the same era. And, praise the Lord, they’re not singing about hotels, or lost summers, or convertibles, or goblins or lipstick and eye-liner and especially, absolutely, definitely not GIRLS.
The lazy, “thrash” the tag doesn’t do the album justice. This is probably among the slowest thrash you'll ever hear, what it is is a very heavy, joyously aggressive record, packed with melody, that feels genuinely inclusive, and is superbly written and performed. Hetfield’s a master of establishing; maintaining and manipulating musical tension and mood, creating songs that really suck you in. This is hard rock as high drama (without the opera).
At this stage in their careers Metallica weren't even doing songs (unless they were covers). They were telling stories; every song is an event, parables of almost biblical proportions that you ignore at your peril. They also happen to rock really hard. Manipulation, deadly sea-monsters, mental breakdown, teenage conscription and subsequent transformation into cannon fodder, corrupt authority, scientology and, err, being a puppet (well there has to be some light relief) – all fine subjects for this band.
After listening to "The Thing That Should Not Be" you'll be sure that you’ve just survived a shark attack and convinced you smell a bit salty. “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” will make you question your sanity, “Disposable Heroes” will convince you to quit the army (even if you're not a member)...that's the power of the stories on this album.
Roll up and enjoy Metallica, before they became slightly introverted and then went soft altogether.
