Are Metallica’s TikTok Fans Already Canceling the Band? Stranger Things Have Happened. – 2022 – VIDEO – Tik Tok Cancel Culture
And they said it wouldn’t last…Ever since Eddie Munson jammed “Master of Puppets” during a pivotal scene in the Stranger Things season finale, Metallica have found themselves being adored by a whole new generation of fans. As a result, the song entered Billboard’s Hot 100 chart for the first time since its release 36 years ago, landing at #40. However, the recent embrace of the band could be short-lived after a recent video, covering Metallica’s past, was uploaded to TikTok.

@serenatrueblood I find it intersting that they only cared about gatekeeping in their fandom when they started getting big agaib from Stranger Things. Thy only care about what lines theor pockets #metallica #metal #isyourfavproblematic #stanculture #cancelculture #fyp p.s. sorry dad #greenscreen #greenscreenvideo ♬ original sound – Serena Trueblood
metallica defending new fans and then those exact people canceling them 2 weeks later is so incredibly funny to me 😭

The whole Metallica tik tok thing is pretty funny but it really does say something about the state of music fandom now. People essentially treat real people as fictional characters so build up ideas of them in their heads and then don't like it when they don't live up to this +

like of course we don’t expect much from a band of mostly white guys in the 80s but you can’t get mad at ppl for not wanting to support them or loosing interest cause of it, esp if you’re white you don’t get a say 😐

No way that these tik tok kids are trying to cancel Metallica because of their past right after supposedly loving them because of Stranger Things💀😂 I’ll take any concert tickets y’all are trying to get rid of 🤘

@Metallica @tiktok_us #Metallica #TikTok
Let's get one thing straight. Metallica didn't need stranger things or TikTok. It was the other way around. 🤘 pic.twitter.com/zt37cSddC3

Supposedly tiktok has cancelled Metallica because they were problematic? Sounds like the kids have finally made it through the discography to that St Anger snare!

Wait…what?!??! TIK TOK STRANGER THINGS FANS ARE TRYING TO CANCEL METALLICA??!?!?!?!? I KNOW THIS BAND FROM MY CHILDHOOD AND LIKE HOW?! …..
I feel like they need to grow up…
Anyone agree?— Shawn🙂 (@ShawnSecurityBB) August 9, 2022
I think the real story here is the kid wanted to make a video that got her views on her Tik Tok. For better or worse she got what she wanted and the video went viral. She doesn’t really care about what Metallica or anyone else did, She cares about blowing up on social media.
