METALLICA give their seal of approval to this young kid who shreds through ‘Master Of Puppets’
A newly uploaded video, taken in Cardiff, Whales by TikTok user Josh Blockwell, shows a young METALLICA fan just ripping through 1986’s “Master Of Puppets” on guitar while busking.
Blockwell captions the clip: “Out in Cardiff and saw a kid plug in his #paulgilbert signature and thought I’d stick around. Did not expect to stay there with my jaw on the floor while he hammered out Master of Puppets flawlessly!”.
The clip even went as far as to catch the attention of METALLICA themselves, who posted their approval with a set of devil horns in the comments section.
The young shredder’s name remains unknown, however one woman in the comment section claims to be his aunt and says that “he’ll be thrilled!” to see he’s received support from Metallica.
She went on to write, “Just told my nephew you commented @metallica it’s made his day! Thank you.” Hopefully we’ll see a reaction video soon.
The video has already amassed 130k likes and over 600k views.
