Featuring previously unreleased material including demos, rough mixes, video, and live tracks.

Master of Puppets – the third studio album from Metallica – is being remastered and reissued on vinyl this November in deluxe, expanded and standard versions.

Originally released by Elektra in 1986, the album was Metallica’s first major label output, as well as the last record to feature bassist Cliff Burton who died in a tour bus crash while promoting it.

Master of Puppets deluxe set ($174.99) includes 3xLP, mp3 download card, 10xCD, 2xDVD, 1 cassette, plus 108-page hardcover book, folder with handwritten lyrics, and instant downloads of ‘Disposable Heroes (Remastered)’ and ‘The Thing That Should Not Be (Live at the Aragon Ballroom, Chicago, IL – May 25th, 1986)’. The expanded ($27.99) 2xLP version comes with hardcover book, with a standard version ($19.99) also available.
