High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Battery is the opening track of Metallica's 1986 album Master of Puppets. As with the opening track from Ride the Lightning (titled "Fight Fire With Fire"), Battery begins with a slow, clean guitar part. In this case, three acoustic guitars are layered harmonically before the drums and bass come in with distorted guitars playing a more melodic version of the acoustic part. This lasts until 1:06, when the guitars cut into a very fast minimalist thrash metal riff that is the basis for the rest of the song, the song also features a heavy bass line by Cliff Burton and a wild and difficult drum beat by Lars Ulrich. In live concerts, the beginning is not played by the band but instead the actual recording is used (recently dropped 1/2 step in key, since the band tunes 1/2 step down). In keeping with the general "control" theme of Master of Puppets, the lyrics of "Battery" discuss the control that anger can have over one's behavior. The title refers to "battery" in the sense of "assault and battery", as shown by these lyrics: "Smashing through the boundaries / Lunacy has found me / Cannot stop the battery".
