    Yeah i heard about this. Having trouble finding the download for the GH version tho. If you find it post a link please?

    Personally the cd doesn't sound too bad but i guess if i heard the GH version i might change my mind.

    If anyone's interested, here's a good article on the use of compression:

  • Here you go guys, two tracks in so far and it definitely sounds better. But I'm not sure why there are two different versions of Suicide and Redemption. So if someone knows, just say.

  • Almost like your life,
    Almost like your endless fight,
    Curse, the day is long,
    Realize you don't belong,
    Disconnect somehow,
    Never stop the bleeding now,
    Almost like your fight,
    And there it went,
    Almost like your life.

    THAT WAS JUST YOUR LIFE!

    Has anyone heard the Guitar Hero III rip? Supposedly it sounds much better than the CD.

    One has an extended solo by James Hetfield, the other has an extended solo by Kirk Hammet.

    S and R is one of my favorite tracks on the whole album. It definately adds to their list of classic instrumentals!

  • I had to pry the cd out of my player with a crowbar yesterday..I fuckin' love it. I guess I have stupid ears, but I don't have any major problems with the production. There's not a bad one in the bunch but my fave is Judas Kiss

    well, apparently they were tied with the Beatles, U2 and....the Dave Matthews Band !
    Now they're top!

  • Listening to this for the first time right now (halfway through song 4) and I'm really liking it. Not just for the thrashing, but there have been some great melodies too. I guess I'll post again when I'm done listening to it.

    And I downloaded it for free off a torrent. It didn't have to be this way, Lars. But you brought this upon yourself.
    Not To Be Confused With More Expensive (Identical) Import Version
  • Has anyone been checking out the Metallica message board lately. Apparently a lot of people are bringing to issue the fact that the CD sounds like crap compared to the Guitar Hero version.

    In my opinion, it's about time people started noticing the overly compressed sounds of the new releases of today.

    Here's an article that kind of explains things:

    wow didn't realise.

    i dont get why compressing makes it easier to listen to - "dumbing down", im confused on that :S

    Compressing doesn't make it easier to listen to. I think they meant by "dumbing down" the sound there is no depth to it. It's just like a flat wall of static with vocals layered over it, thus dumbing down the music and making it more simple than it really is.

    Something weird happened to me today. I had to take my boss out to get a haircut today in his Bentley Flying Spur. Wednesday I took his car out to get serviced and detailed and I was playing *Death Magnetic* in there very ((((LOUD))))). Well I forgot it in his car till today.

    Now my boss is 91 and extremely wealthy (Half a Billionaire) and I serve as his nurse and everything else. OK I start his car and *That Was Just Your Life* goes off louder than a nuclear explosion. In a panic I turned it up louder, finally was able to turn it off and he asks "what the hell was that?" I said, just thunder and lightening he says "in the basement of a 7 story building on a clear day." :)

    I'm like oh shit I'm in trouble so I told the truth it's Metallica's *Death Magnetic* cd, he says "let me hear it" I snapped my neck around saying to myself is he kidding cause he looked like he was having a heart attack from how loud it was.

    Well he listened for about a 1 min 20 secs and said "you listen to that kind of music and you can listen to Frank Sinatra/Edith Piaf and Nat King Cole too" I said yes sir they ALL sound good to me as it appeared his heartrate seem to settle down. Then he said "I knew there is something very different about you and that's why I like you". He closed his eyes and took a nap in his usual spot in the back.

    I'm just glad as hell his wife wasn't in there I would've never heard the end of it. :)

  • I was thinking after 2 weeks I would sour on the album but I haven't. The album is fucking incredible. I am a fan of all eras of Metallica but this cd stands by itself and is up there amongst the best. I love it.
  • One has an extended solo by James Hetfield, the other has an extended solo by Kirk Hammet.

    S and R is one of my favorite tracks on the whole album. It definately adds to their list of classic instrumentals!

    So is Kirk Hammet the album version, or are they both different from the album version?
  • Hmm sound quality is meh

    Find its a good mix of Load/reload and their earlier stuff

    love it :)

    OK, I got the Guitar Hero version. It is miles better. You can actually hear the bass. There are all kinds of drum fills that you can't hear on the CD version. Its like listening to a whole new album.
