DC1221 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Looks like MoP is getting the deluxe box set treatment the first two albums got a while back. https://www.metallica.com/store/master-of-puppets psus2h, Tommy, hallowken78 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlecakes Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Steep, but who am I kidding? I'll be buying this... I can't watch the video right now. Does it say how limited it will be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 yeah, I'm going to be getting this one for sure. Easily the best Metallica record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvismcvegas Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 EZ Pass. Looks like it comes with a bunch of junk and what's with all the paper sleeves on the cds? Thats cheap as hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Also, it's not looking like it's going to be released until November 9th so you have some time to think about it. Considering you can still find Kill em All and Ride The Lightning sets pretty easy still. I doubt this will also sell out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psus2h Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I hope they do a three pack that saves on the cost a bit. Still don't have KEA or RTL from this series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeMoreGlass Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hows the sound on these remasters? I've been meaning to pick up the albums from Metallica that I like but I've always been worried about getting a shitty sounding pressing... That video is awesome...what a neat box set...

djghost1976 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I'm really tempted to get that numbered boxset. It helps that they don't charge until November too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of the new remasters are excellent(KEA and RTL that is).I assume this MOP is getting the same treatment. If so, I'm definitely getting this new pressing. Not the box, but the record itself. I almost went for the first box sets, but I'm not a big fan of all that extra stuff they came with. But then... This is my favorite Metallica...

andynz Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) A question following on from that... So what you're buying from the Metallica site is this version for each KEA and RTL? https://www.discogs.com/Metallica-Ride-The-Lightning/release/8385645 Have AJFA, the black album and Load not had the 2016 repress treatment yet?

faaip de oiad Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) Interested in those Newsted's auditions. Heck maybe I'll get this one after all... Also I wonder if Cliff'em All will get the Blu-ray treatment... Edited August 30, 2017 by VinylMario typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braveheart Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Bullmoose has the box for $151. $18 for vinyl. DC1221 and merlecakes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtMyers Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 These will be available on Amazon, save on shipping. The other box sets had 30k pressings so these won't be going out of print soon. They did a good job on the first two, I'll probably buy them through Justice. The records after that had numerous live sets and singles that I purchased ad naseum. not sure what they'll entice me with from Black through the loads that I don't have. More live vinyl? piky0032 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC1221 Posted August 30, 2017 Author Share Posted August 30, 2017 I really want to hear some of those demos and Jason's audition, but that's a lot of money (and shelf space) for stuff that probably wouldn't warrant a second listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallowken78 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 How good is the sound quality on the live shows from the previous box sets? I passed on those and just picked up the standard releases but I may have to rethink that in hindsight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandw12786 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 This took way too damn long! Been waiting for news on this since they announced that they'd be going through the whole catalog when they did KEA and RTL. Didn't grab the boxes for those (didn't grab KEA at all, really the only album of theirs I don't like), but I'm tempted on this one. That's a lot of money, though. I'm really interested to see what they'll do with Justice, though. Something tells me they won't boost the bass at all and continue defending that decision to their graves, but it'd sure be nice to have a proper mix of that album. Fingers crossed.

Only the first three albums have received the remastering treatment from this series. The others AJFA - DM have not received the special treatment, the current blackend pressings are the Warner pressings from 2008 that, IMO, are very underwhelming. If you're looking for these albums you're better off looking for older pressings. andynz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
