Only issue is ever since I watched The Paradise Lost documentary I associate a lot of Metallica's music with the case.

[The Question]

heh

 

[Frood]

I flipped them off in 2002 at a music festival, Iggy.

 

[Frood]

Did the same to Jello Biafra 8 years later.

 

[Iggy McLulz]

why?

 

[Iggy McLulz]

One is classic

Cuntess likes the song Master of Puppets and yet likes to pretend to be an ice Goon.....

 

[Frood]

Because Metallica and Biafra were talking shit about America thinking they were safe doing it from afar.

 

[Iggy McLulz]

oh...

 

[Iggy McLulz]

I'm not thrilled with America currently, what's the difference?

 

[Frood]

You don't go to a foreign nation and regurgitate lies or half truths to appeal to the audience, Iggy.

 

[The Cuntess]

Master of puppets is about drugs

 

[Iggy McLulz]

Gotcha

 

[The Cuntess]

I like rage against the machine too

 

[Iggy McLulz]

I honestly didn't know that but it makes sense now

 

[Frood]

RAGE are another hypocrite band.... like Metallica suing Napster despite admitting to eating "ham on hand" sandwiches earlier to afford bootleg cassettes of other bands they wanted to listen to...

 

[Iggy McLulz]

I love old Rage, I haven't kept up with them.

 

[Admin.]

Drugs are indeed one sense of the song, it also for some speaks to "media propaganda, government distortions and lies, billionaire tech bros spoon feeding us info" etc yadda yadda yadda.

 

[Iggy McLulz]

Punk is damn near dead.

 

[The Cuntess]

Drug Addiction, specifically cocaine. Especially since the members had some issues with drugs (James with Alcohol, Kirk with cocaine, etc), which is where the "Obey your Master", "Chop your breakfast on a mirror", "Twisting your Mind and Smashing your dreams", and "Hell is worth all that lyrics come from. I kinda wish they highlighted this in the background of the MOP music video, with perhaps like Bags of coke or needles

Rage is so far left themed it could probably get an ice agent fired for having on their playlist.

Sucks. Never liked it, but there's no accounting for taste.

Art is also in the mind of the beholder: hile primarily focused on drug addiction, Metallica’s "Master of Puppets" is widely interpreted as a broader metaphor for societal control, authoritarianism, and manipulation by power structures. The song portrays a "master" that robs individuals of their autonomy, mirroring how governments, institutions, or ideologies can control people.Key Themes of Societal Control in "Master of Puppets":Political and Social Critique: The "Master" can represent authoritarian regimes, media, or corporations that turn individuals into powerless pawns.The Illusion of Freedom: The lyrics echo philosophical themes (like Plato’s Allegory of the Cave), where people are

TIL a lot about music I love

 

[The Cuntess]

Breakfast on a mirror - drugs

 

[The Cuntess]

Not everything is political

 

[Iggy McLulz]

Metallica has always been political and about drugs and war
