I'd say both. . .

eg. Franco Un-American by NOFX i like for the lyrics
Master of Puppets by Metallica I like for the music.

its definately both for me....most of the bands i listen to wouldnt be the same without both their lyrics and music

no because there is alot of meaning in those lyrics too, its all about everyone being like a puppet and having someone pulling their strings, like your not in control of yourself, those are very poiniant, meaningful lyrics

I tend to listen to the guitar bits more, but the lyrics are important too

i couldnt pick one or the other 😬

thats what i was saying...but the music is also a strong aspect of the song, the interlude is a work of art so thats why im saying that both are as important as one another.

Depends on artist.

Both, for sure.

Wow that's strange because MAster of Puppets is possibly one of the most lyrically captivating songs.

But it does have an awesome solo.
