Damage Inc. - Metallica - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Damage, Inc." by Metallica, the final track on their acclaimed 1986 album Master of Puppets, is an unapologetic expression of aggression and defiance. The songwriting credits are shared among James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Cliff Burton, and Kirk Hammett, marking it as one of the last works to include Burton before his tragic death. The instrumentation behind "Damage, Inc." features rapid tempos and complex arrangements typical of thrash metal, a genre Metallica helped pioneer and popularize. Its lyrics find the band taking a few steps back and recognizing their status as both a part of the music industry and criticizing the many forms of manipulation corporate culture uses to enslave society. Its iconic bass intro, written by Cliff Burton, was based on a Johann Sebastian Bach piece titled "Come, Sweet Death." The track also inspired the band's promotional tour name, in which Cliff Burton was killed after a bus accident in Sweden on September 27, 1986.
