Мастер

A Soviet and Russian rock group playing in the styles of thrash metal and heavy metal. It is one of the "root" and most successful groups on the domestic metal scene. Founders are Alik Granovsky and Andrey Bolshakov. Unlike "Aria," "Master" began playing in the thrash metal style. At the end of the 1980s, this genre was at the peak of its popularity, thanks to performers such as Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer. The subject matter of "Master's" lyrics had a sharp social character relevant during the perestroika years, which allowed the group to quickly achieve widespread fame.
