vinyl addict Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Definitely, I will have to get the original pressings. Youve heard them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperg1ant Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Youve heard them? A friend has the 2XLP DMM pressings (Music for nations) of kill em' all, ride the lightning and master of puppets. The three releases sounds brutally good on 45 rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinyl addict Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 You have not heard the new box pressings? I'm looking to hear from people who've heard the originals as well as the new box press. I own original presses and I agree they sound awesome, but I'm curious about the new box set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own original presses and I agree they sound awesome, but I'm curious about the new box set. I've read opinions from people that have bought the boxset. They said that the vinyl is exactly the same thing from the previous blackened pressings. In a few days I will have access to a boxset of ride the lightning, only then, I will make a review from the release hehehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinyl addict Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Awesome, I'd love to hear it. Wasn't trying to give you a hard time, just want to hear first hand opinions. That's a big purchase to make! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throughbeingcruel Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Could I buy the $16 single LP pressing and it be the same as the box set without the extra shit I don't want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what we are trying to figure out. FYI: The $16 press sounds like absolute ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piky0032 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 That's what we are trying to figure out. FYI: The $16 press sounds like absolute ass. It should be the same.......which isnt sounding like its going to be the best unfortunately..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 That's what we are trying to figure out. FYI: The $16 press sounds like absolute ass. Where is your source that the single LP sounds like ass I believe it is the same pressing in the box. They didnt remaster it twice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinyl addict Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Where is your source that the single LP sounds like ass I believe it is the same pressing in the box. They didnt remaster it twice I bought the first 4 LPs when they came out.Trust me they are all terrible. Warped, scratched, and piss poor sound. Very bad.The black album, however, sounds great still.

The black album, however, sounds great still. Are you refering to the Warner/Universal 2008 represses? Becuase you are spot on.....KEA - ...AJFA 1lp and 2lp sound pretty poor....but TBA 2Lp and the 4Lp sound killer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperg1ant Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I listened to all the blackened pressings. All of them have a horrible quality, worst than a 128 kbps youtube rip. The only "acceptable" pressing was the 4XLP boxset of and justice for all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they remastered for the box, the single LPs versions should be the same master since they came out at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will listen to the ride the lightning 2016 version on a few days. I bet it will be a terrible pressing as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost 99% sure they only released a 2Lp Blackened pressing of ...AJFA The 4 Lp pressings were the warner/universal 2008 represses.....Justice was pressed on Green 4lp /1000 and both an EU and a US black 4lp.....along with the Normal 2 Lp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piky0032 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 For the 1Lp option.....The Banzai Black Lable Pressing is still the best RTL i have heard.....at one point i had about 15 or so pressings....Megaforce...MFN....and the Banzai pressing was still my favourite.....followed closely by the Nexus Pressing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperg1ant Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Now, I can confirm that the remaster vinyl of ride the lightning from the boxset sounds terrible. Compressed as fuck with no dynamics at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compressed as fuck with no dynamics at all.You sure it's the correct press? The releases from a couple years sound like complete ass(packaging is very similar). However, I've heard nothing but good things recently over in the SHtv forums. The KeA supposedly sounds even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I've heard nothing but good things recently over in the SHtv forums. The KeA supposedly sounds even better. Totally sure. I haven't listened to Kill Em' All remaster, but RTL sounds really bad. They totally took the easy route and blow all the levels of sound, it sounds muffled and brick walled. No improvement at all from the previous remaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinyl addict Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Pretty sure the hype sticker claims "First Remaster" which is just funny in its own right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throughbeingcruel Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Pretty sure the hype sticker claims "First Remaster" which is just funny in its own rightIt does haha. I'm gonna buy the single LP KeA that just came out, it's $16 locally. I'm not gonna find any of the great sounding pressings for anywhere near that price anyway, so may as well just get the cheapest copy.

Rottengoth Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 If they could just re release everything remastered with St Anger snare I'd be happy. Please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
