Musician Denis Pauna is a master of metal and hard rock “what-ifs.” Like, what if Song X by Band Y was played in the style of Band Z? They aren’t mash-ups, but rather, in-the-style-ofs.
Pauna has many Metallica “what-ifs” on his YouTube page. What if Type O Negative Wrote “The Unforgiven?” What if Alice in Chains Wrote “Seek and Destroy?” And his latest, What if Rammstein Wrote “Master of Puppets?”
The song, played by Stranger Things‘ character Eddie Munson in the final episode of the Season 4, has enjoyed an unprecedented resurgence over the last month. “Master of Puppets” rocketed up the streaming charts and made Metallica a household name in non-metal listening households.
