Stranger Things Got Eddie a Little Help With His Outrageously Rad Guitar Solo in the Finale

“**Spoiler Alert** That’s my boy! Proud of ya Tye! Stranger Things finale shredding it on “Master of Puppets” and big thanks to @kirkhammett on helping!”

If you were somehow worried that the other members of Metallica didn’t approve of the use of their song, don’t be—they loved it.

“The way The Duffer Brothers have incorporated music into Stranger Things has always been next level, so we were beyond psyched for them to not only include “Master of Puppets” in the show, but to have such a pivotal scene built around it. We were all stoked to see the final result and when we did we were totally blown away… it’s so extremely well done, so much so, that some folks were able to guess the song just by seeing a few seconds of Joseph Quinn’s hands in the trailer!! How crazy cool is that?”

“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.”

Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” will likely be the song people think of when they think of Stranger Things season four, or maybe just the show entirely from this point, given how prominently and effectively it was used in Volume 1. But personally, I’ll never get the image of Eddie rocking the hell out in a hell full of demons, and I never want to, either.
