Metallica were just a bunch of tone deaf (speech)

you don't have to clarify that. You really have to be a ham fisted fucking idiot to do the things compositionally that metallica does with the music they have to hand. Master of puppets should have made a recurring theme of the chromatic (ish) intro, and they throw it away, they bash away at the same shitty, caveman riff for eight fucking minutes. And Justice for all has a great intro, and it gradually degrades until basically nothing is left.

check out this song that uses a theme similar to master of puppets for a better way to use a similar musical idea https://youtu.be/FoGoEQ8DUDo?list=RDFoGoEQ8DUDo&t=18

Scream Tracker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRznLXhu4pg&list=PLuprJ3W2ahOXgaIkH_Pf4De4JSFz6wo9l

This particular collection isn't exactly like the track, but the tracker sound feels about right for it
