For all of you metallica haters out there, I have a simple solution for you: If you dont like it, stay away from it.[/b]
You see, I like Mettalica, I have been listening to them since you were probably in diapers. Somebody royally fucked up in the recording of thier new record in my opinion. It does sound like it was recorded with an answering machine, especially the drums and guitars. The snare sound is farty, the guitars sound washy and undefined. There is no "bigness" like in previous records. The vocals are buried, and the bass sound is muddy and lacks clarity.
So I dont like it, I WILL stay away from it, and listen to the other Mettalica records that DO sound good.
