![]() But I’d argue that Master of Puppets was the record on which Metallica truly found themselves, honed in on what it means to be Metallica. It was all onwards and upwards from there, of course, culminating in the band’s dominance of ’90s rock radio and everything that followed, for better or worse. And it showed: Master of Puppets become the most commercially successful Metallica album yet. Mixing more complex arrangements with shifts in tempo and orchestration, Master was unquestionably Metallica’s most dynamic and complex record to date, and somehow also their most accessible. But it was on Master that the band fully leaned into the sound they’d begun to develop on tracks like “Seek & Destroy” and “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” producing breathtaking epics like “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” and the album’s sprawling title track.
