There are many ways to test one’s musical skills. One of the methods would be to let someone play an intricate solo piece backwards. Guys like J.S. Bach did it with ease, right there on the spot. Okay, musicians like Bach are really hard to stumble upon and there’s not a lot of people in history that could even come close to him. But we’re really impressed by this guy named Bradley Hall who managed to do this with Kirk Hammett’s solo from the title track of Metallica’s “Master of Puppets.”While some might be suspicious and assume that Bradley just played the solo normally and then played it backwards, he proves them wrong by leaving some clues. Like putting a clock in the background and eating cheese. You can watch the results below.
But this is not all, as Bradley has a whole bunch of videos of metal solos played backwards.
In case you’re feeling like picking up a guitar and trying this one out yourself, here’s the tab for “Master of Puppets” at this location. You just have to have nerves of steel and try and play it the way Bradley does.
