I was skateboarding with my dog and fell and sustained an oblique fracture on my first metacarpal. It was completely blown off the bone and needed to be reset and I was in a cast for almost 8 weeks. The new Stranger Things season wrapped up around that time and when Master of Puppets came up I felt like it was the universe mocking me. I don't think many people know, but one of the first songs I ever covered with a band was Master of Puppets when I was probably 15 or 16. I so badly wanted to pick the guitar up and play it, but I just couldn't. When my thumb healed however, I told myself what better rehabilitation than to get this song up to speed and play it as best I could. What I wasn't expecting was doing the vocals too. I was really split on this cover, I wanted to definitely not disrespect the source material by trying to just completely plaster my usual stuff all over it. I spent a lot of time trying to find the perfect middle ground between the original guitar tone of the rhythm guitars and something I've come to love about modern metal and came up with this tone using the John Petrucci Neural DSP and a LOT of EQ. For leads, I kinda just used my usual lead tone because I'm honestly not the biggest fan of how the leads sound in the original. I tried to play the solos as close as I could to original only sometimes adding slight flair, but really doing something silly at the end. Hope all the super elitist Metallica fans can forgive. I was nervous about the vocals, but I wasn't expecting that the vocal style I've been developing over the past year actually serves well to this style. I'm no James Hetfield, but I definitely got closer than I thought I would and I'm proud of how it sounds. I'm back, baby. Thumb is back to firing at all cylinders. Let's make some awesome music. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▼▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Proudly endorsed by: Ernie Ball Strings (https://www.ernieball.com/) Schecter Guitars (http://www.schecterguitars.com/) ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▼▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Composed by: Metallica ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▼▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Instruments Used: Lead Guitar: Ernie Ball Majesty Monarchy Series Rhythm Guitar: Schecter E-1 Apocalypse Bass: Schecter Diamond-J 5 Interface: Axe-Fx III Mixer: Makie ProFX12 Microphone: Shure SM7B Audio Software: Cubase 12 Video Software: Adobe Premiere Pro 2022 Video Camera: Panasonic Lumix GH5s Check out my entire list of equipment here: https://kit.co/FamilyJules7x Pick up some of my equipment from Sweetwater: https://bit.ly/Sweetwater-FJ #metallica #masterofpuppets #strangerthings #FamilyJules #FamilyJules7x
