true dat. but ridiculous almost sounds like you're saying the drumming was really good. i would have said, "the drumming is fucking dislexic." hmm.

noob3 Why are you telling me this? I have Steve Albini in my personal picture, for fucks sake.

kellychaos It's better that they get it on their own to pay some hotshot producer to fake it.
Jun 27th, 2003 01:24 PM
noob3 Lots of bands have a good live (garage) sound on tape, it's not hard to get.
Jun 27th, 2003 12:30 PM
kellychaos Several years ago, the guy from "Dinosaur" had a better garage sound and he did all the mixing/editing himself.

whoreable maybe they saved the production money to buy ferraris or something. that would be the only reasonable explanation.

greedy fuckers knew people would buy it no matter what it sounded like

Helm Garage bands have that sort of sound because they have no fucking money to hire Bob Rock to clean them up. And what do metallica that can, do with him? They make him bend over and let Urich fuck him right up the ass. A fate worse than death. Damnit, garage bands have better mixes that this anyway.
Jun 26th, 2003 07:16 PM
whoreable for some reason they musta got the idea that shitty recordings make for a harder sound. brilliant.
Jun 26th, 2003 06:26 PM
Helm What the fuck happened to the production? I mean, Kill 'em all sounded better than that pile of dung. The snare hits are horrible. Is this Larch's and Bob's vision of what 'modern' drumming is about? And the fact that there's double bass all over the place doesn't save the sloppy songwriting one bit. And there's not ONE lead, let alone solo in the whole album(besides some silly harmony breaks). Why did they need Hammet in the band, then? The rhythm is buried in the mix as well. I actually had to watch Hetfield's hands and translate that into tone in my mind to figure out what the riff was behind that freakin' stomping snare hit. And it wasn't particularly pretty.

AJFA is my personal favourite as well, eventhough I do aknowledge Master for being nearly flawless in terms of consistency (just take Messiah out of there), you simply cannot beat the trio of One, Frayed and Eve. There's some suck in that album, but the good ones are really so much better than the overall Master vibe, in my oppinion. And I sorta like the sterile, clinical aspect of it's sound.

SLjimbo I usually don't care for Metallica, but for fuck's sake, why is there at least 12 close-ups of Lars' troll face in the ST. Anger video?

It's funny seeing how some people are holding their breaths so that Metallica reverts back to their old sound.

kellychaos I think that they lost even the "ghost" of the nucleus of talent that ever had and are trying to see how long they can coast on a band name that, once upon a time, meant something.
Jun 22nd, 2003 12:38 PM
Mouser I think they recorded the album especially raw to re-establish their cred, but it wound up sounding like it was recorded through a $30 Aiwa tape deck in someone's garage. See Source Tags & Code for an album that accomplishes raw without the shitty.

kellychaos I'm not really a huge Megadeth fan ... a few songs here and there ... but I must admit, they were one of the early bands that were there at the beginning and doubtless had an effect on some bands although I doubt their influence is as broad as Mustaine professes. At least they maintained some of their original musical integrity. <shrug >
Jun 18th, 2003 12:13 PM
CastroMotorOil kelly that depends on whether you ask anyone else or dave mustaine, he thinks he is responsible for basically all of metallica's success. he also claims to have originated a whole style of guitar playing, which pantera copied off of him. Even you don't like pantera, you have to admit dimebag is is own guitarist, whether he sucks or not is irrelavant. Mustaine is basically also claiming to be responsible for pantera's success.

I hate dave mustaine. Whiny bastard.

Noob,

Do you think Dave Mustaine had any lasting lyrical influence on the band after he was booted out or was the style of the first three albums due mostly to Cliff ... or both?

Blackjack I'm afraid there is only one Master of Puppets - the greatest album ever created. Otherwise, anything Metal-lica produced thereafter can burn in hell. Motherfucker.
Jun 9th, 2003 06:20 PM
Rez i've never listened to metallica *shrug*
Jun 9th, 2003 05:38 PM
snake AJFA was a good album but the production is completely shit....the discant is threatening to blow my ears out each time I hear it.......why? Couse its produced by Hetfield and Ulrich....something they obviously did'nt know jack shit about. In my opinion "kill em all" is the best album, then MOP. It all went downhill after MOP.
Jun 9th, 2003 05:11 PM
Grazzt I've never liked Metallica. Let the stoning commence.
Jun 9th, 2003 03:20 PM
moonlitnight In my opinion the black album was a great one

As an entire album, I agree although some of my favorite individual songs came prior to AJFA. It seems that the AJFA was about the time they were perfecting the sound they were going for ... and then they changed on the Black album. :/

Anonymous AJFA was the very best of old Metallica, by far, in my opinion.

Not my words. That's the way it was stated in the article I read although I'm not sure how they define "download proof". Although I agree (I think what you're implying anyway) that there is always a way to get around whatever protective encryptive measures they attempt to use, the fact that the attempt is being made in the first place pisses me off. In fact, this band has annoyed me ever since they went on their tirade against Napster. Also, the drumming on the song I've heard so far sounds like they're pounding on a tin can and any meaningful guitar solo is nonexistent. Whatever happened to that cool double-bass sound they were developing around the time of "... And Justice For All" ?
