Many celebrate the character’s guitar skills and said the song was reveal more than two weeks before the series’ events. Metallica took action on the excitement and took to Instagram to praise the ending in a statement.

“The way The Duffer Brothers have incorporated music into Stranger Things has always been next level. So we were beyond psyched for them to not only include “Master of Puppets” in the show. But to have such a pivotal scene built around it,” they wrote.

“We all tend to see the final result and when we did we were totally blown away. it’s so extremely well done, so much so, that some folks were able to guess the song just by seeing a few seconds of Joseph Quinn’s hands in the trailer!! How crazy cool is that?”

“It’s an incredible honor to be such a big part of Eddie’s journey and to once again be keeping company with all of the other amazing artists featured in the show.”

Fans will be even more inspire when they learn that Joseph Quinn really didn’t need anyone to replace him during the scene. Choosing to play most of the song himself. As a result, they only had one replacement guitarist for the solo.

“When I read the scripts, the next morning I went out and bought a guitar and manically started learning “Master of Puppets,” Quinn revealed.

“On the day, I and Gaten just got up on top of the camper van, and just got into it. It was very fun. I played most of it.”
