Metallica Master Of Puppets tops 1 billion Spotify streams

The title track to Metallica’s 1986 classic, “Master Of Puppets”, has topped 1 billion streams on Spotify.

“We’re psyched to share that ‘Master of Puppets’ has just made its way into Spotify’s Billions Club,” says the band. “Thank you!”

The song follows “Enter Sandman” and ”Nothing Else Matters” as Metallica’s third tune to make the Spotify list.

The band’s third studio record and major label debut, “Master Of Puppets” became thrash metal's first platinum album on its way to US sales of more than 6 million copies.

Metallica continue to support its latest record, “72 Seasons”, on the M72 World Tour, which resumes in Syracuse, NY on April 19.
