Product Details

Recorded at Sweet Silence Studios in Copenhagen with producer Flemming Rasmussen, *Master of Puppets* arrived as the final Metallica album to feature bassist Cliff Burton, who died in a tour bus accident in Sweden just months after its release in September 1986. That context hangs over every listen, making the title track, "Battery," and "Disposable Heroes" feel like documents of a band at an unrepeatable peak, captured right before everything changed.


Master of Puppets was originally released on March 3rd, 1986, on Elektra Records and went on to become the first Metallica album to be certified Platinum by the RIAA. The album has been certified 6x Platinum in the United States and has sold over 10 million copies worldwide. In 2016, the album became the first metal album to be added to the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress, an honor granted to works deemed “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.The Expanded Edition will include previously unreleased demos, rough mixes, interviews, live tracks, and a 28-page booklet.
