James and Lars would basically be admitting that they were in the wrong. The whole world knows that Newsted's bass lines were lowered to almost nil. Rasmussen mentioned that they were never finalized in his mix. They were scrapped. Lars changed everything he had done. Of course next year will be the 30th anniversary of that album. So fingers crossed they get this one right... They said after the released it they didn't like the sound. So, I don't think it would be this monumental admission of guilt. They made some poor choices in the studio. IT SEEMS TO ME...that we should be able to repair it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So fingers crossed they get this one right... We need a remix, not a remaster. The lack of bass is in the stereo mix, so no amount of mastering is going to fix it. The album desperately needs a new mix and release it alongside the original mix so that no-one can say revisionism is bad as they wouldn't be trying to replace it. Hopefully the original multitracks are in good shape. Heck if they managed to find the original PRE-bounce tapes for Sgt Peppers 50 years later to create new stereo and 5.1 mixes, there's hope for AJFA. mcpherson123, faaip de oiad and psus2h 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also did a 2LP 45rpm release in 1987. The original vinyl is cut at a very low volume due to the running times per side and as a result has a high noise floor. This is just science.

The Music For Nations 2xLP DMM reissues were the BEST IMO. They did KEA, RTL, and MOP in that series. Truly the definitive editions IMO. dobyblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similarly to Pearl Jam's Ten redux would be awesome. Or Soundgarden's Ultramega OK. That would entail an extremely large box set. But that would be the way to go IMO.

Satan Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 All that chit chat aside... this box has Jason's auditions. I'd buy just for that. faaip de oiad and psus2h 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to hear those auditions. But there are only 5 tracks with his auditions. Personally, it wouldn't warrant me buying the entire box. But damn!, this is my favorite Metallica album. If I can muster up the fortitude to pay the other half(pre-ordered vinyl and CD/book combo), I'd buy the box and cancel my order. I guess I have two months to save up...

glass realms Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Jumped on the pre-order for this off Amazon Italy this morning for €99. If the exchange rate is similar by the time it ships, I should be getting it for $118ppd. Not bad at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glass realms Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Apparently there's an "added value" cassette of a 1986 live show in Japan available at indie shops. One shop here is giving it away free when you buy the super deluxe box. Not sure if it only applies to the super deluxe box of if it's also free if you buy the other formats.

My local gave me a tape with the purchase of the MOP LP remaster. Was originally going to pass on it, as I have two older issues of this album already, but I wanted one of those tapes. Got me to buy it AGAIN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glass realms Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I'm still waiting for Amazon Italy to ship my super deluxe box. I've got a bad feeling they're gonna cancel it soon. But I'll keep waiting if they don't. Hopefully I can get it for $119 shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docbronze Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I haven't heard it myself, but I've read that the new LP is very good and in line with the KEA and RTL 2016 represses. I'm looking forward to receiving/spinning mine on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
