Mastered by Muppets

Laughed for at the entire video haha enjoy!

Lol!!
funny! :P

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA..The biscuit tin killed me.

hahaha "needs more biscuit tin and so forth" hahaha

Yeah, not the greatest sounding snare I've ever heard.

Yeah...it's not a Stanger snare though. That actually was a biscuit tin haha
Also I really didn't like the guitar sound on Death Magnetic...it was...odd

Don't mean to turn this into a bash metallica thread. but i feel that this needs to be said. Death Magnetic is a collection of some of the worst guitar solo's of all time

Don't worry man, I love Metallica!
But seriously Death Magnetic was a solid album on the song front...not mixing wise, and, it just had a weird guitar sound and some really bad solos on it. I just cannot get the same sort of vibe and groove out of the solos like I could on Ride, Master, or Justice(Black album didn't have great solos either).
But I love Kirk, James, Jason/Cliff/Rob, and that other guy(haha Lars).

To me it seems their production went from raw to over-produced over the years. They hit the sweet spot on Master/In Justice then just got worse. Like case says, I still think the songs are goood but they lack something.

This video is brilliant and says it all!

Agreed. It was almost like an overnight thing that they went from Master/Justice production(Almost perfect, Justice was a bit too dry) to the Black Album which was just ridiculous for production(re-mixed 3 times, and over $1 Mil. spent). I think it was just too fast considering how dry production was on Justice(though an amazing album, just needs bass!).
Then with the same over-production problems through Load/Re-Load, then BAM! St. Anger with virtually no production in comparison to the lst 3 albums(Studio I mean, not S&M). Then they brought in Rick Rubin to ruin this last effort by brick-walling the S^&% out of it.
I mean I love all their albums I just feel that they could have gone about production a bit differently during the Rock years.
