Eddie Munson Was the Perfect Metal Head Representation We Needed, Minute Details Reveal the Efforts That Went Into the Creation of the Character

There were a lot of highlights in this year’s Stranger Things, from amazing
visuals to the mesmerizing background score. However, if we talk in terms of
characters, there is only one that has stolen the heart of all the Stranger
Things fans, Eddie Munson. Eddie was not just a great Dungeons & Dragons master
but a true metal head. But it was not just a coincidence.

A lot of work went into the creation of the hero who did not run away. And who
better to pick out minute details that make Eddie great than his fans.

Keen-eyed fans have spotted a few details that settle the debate forever: Eddie
is the best representation of a Metal Head in cinematic history.


WHY EDDIE FROM STRANGER THINGS IS THE BIGGEST METAL HEAD

Our hearts are still beating fast after Eddie’s incredible solo at the Stranger
Things [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] finale. The two-minute
solo of Master of Puppets by Eddie will go down in history as not only the most
metal scene ever but surely as one of the greatest too.

It was incredible to know that it was actor Joseph Quinn
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/joseph-quinn/] performing himself. His solo was
on point and gave goosebumps to anyone watching. But his amazing performance was
not all he had to offer.

Metal Head fans of Stranger Things have since pointed out another scene from the
show that convinced them that Eddie was the greatest metal head.

Reddit [https://www.reddit.com/user/oneupkev/] user wrote, “Eddie holding an
iron maiden album which has a picture of Eddie (iron maidens mascot) on it was
very on point.”

In fact, the album cover that Eddie is holding in the said scene is a reference
to the Iron Maiden mascot also.

Another Reddit [https://www.reddit.com/user/DanfordThePom/] user explains this
“his name on the album is Eddie the head. This is referenced by Eddie having a
head.”

Besides his emasculate taste in music, Eddie’s wardrobe, which Joseph also made
additions

was a great way of showing his love for Rock n roll.

series’ fifth and final season
