One of the defining albums of thrash metal, the 1986 album Master of Puppets is Metallica's best as well as the group's last effort with bassist Cliff Burton. Focusing on the concept of power and abuses thereof, this is complex, intelligent, heavy music played with maximum intensity.

"Metallica's third album has a lyrical theme: manipulation. "It deals pretty much with drugs," singer-guitarist James Hetfield said. "Instead of you controlling what you're taking and doing, it's drugs controlling you." It also has a sonic theme: really loud guitars, played fast, with no regard for the hair metal on the airwaves. When the band slows down on "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)," it just emphasizes the unrelenting nature of the rest of the songs." -Rolling Stone, The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, September 2003

Now, hear it all like never before. Half-speed mastered from the original analog tapes, the sound is amazing!
