After the unbelievable success of Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)" because of the fourth season of "Stranger Things," Metallica also witnessed their song grow overnight after it was featured in the final episode of the Netflix series' fourth installment.
Since the song became heavily popular in recent days, many musician fans are trying to learn how to play "Master of Puppets."
According to Banana 101.5 Rocks, fans could learn how to play the hit song through Yousician, an app that offers tutorials to learn how to play different instruments.
Coincidentally, weeks before the episode of the show was released, Metallica partnered with the application to have their masterclass where James Hetfield himself will teach you how to play the guitar in several ways.
The outlet noted that many fans have been requesting "Master of Puppets" from the platform, which increased around 1,700 percent since the show dropped on July 1, making it the most popular addition of July so far.
In early reports, Metallica has collaborated with Yousician to learn step-by-step tutorials on how to play the guitar like a pro.
The course features three lessons for beginners with instructor James Hetfield himself. The lessons aim to teach musicians how to do riffs and rhythms.
The guitarist is also joined by his other band mates, Kirk Hammett, Lars Ulrich, and Robert Trujillo.
The first lesson was released last month titled "Riff Lite," while the two other classes, "Rock In Rhythm" and "Take the Lead," were uploaded a few weeks after
Aside from "Master of Puppets," fans will have the chance to learn how to play other songs like "Enter Sandman," "Nothing Else Matters," "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)," and more.
Yousician's official website featured the prices of their packages: fans can avail a solo account for $31 per year, while the family bundle (four people) is priced at $47.
The recent spike of requests comes a few days after Metallica finally reacted to "Stranger Things" when they featured their song.
"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," they wrote.
"Master of Puppets" was played during a guitar solo scene by Joseph Quinn (Eddie Munson), where he attempted to fight deadly bats sent by Vecna.
