They really shouldn't have turned the bass down on this album. His tone is so...tasty  . I'm surprised his hands didn't fall off haha  . |

But the game has all the individual master tracks from all the instruments, I remember seeing a thread somewhere about Cliff's track on Battery, he actually doesn't use the triplets, and he plays (quote unquote) "sloppy", according to alot of people in the thread. I just thought it sounded badass.

| Thanks for letting me know that.
Even though I'm not a Metallica fan, it was great listening. Anyone know if there's anymore stuff like that out there.... |

| | | | I love Cliff and have nothing against Jason but the sound/tone of bass is irrelevant for metallica, it practically doesn't exist. after listening to some of these master tracks, especially how good Jason's are, I'd never play bass for metallica because there would be nothing for people to hear from me. |

It almost sounds like the bass is mixed at the same frequency range as the the guitar. Or maybe its just the YouTube audio. |

| Almost certainly the YouTube audio won't be helping - they compress video files a massive amount. |

Supposedly as a way of hazing Newstead. Its ridiculously low, and its a shame, cause the songs would've had so much more substance with the basslines. Sorry for some shameless whoring, but if you go to YouTube and search The Frayed Ends of Sanity and fullmetalht, you can see what I'm talking about. I found tabs for the bassline and it was really good, so I put a video up. |

| | | | They should release a remastered version of AJFA. I mean, give justice to newsted's skills |

| | | | I had the oportunity to meet Newsted several times, and when a person is as nice and friendly as he is, it just makes his music that much better. Not really a Metallica fan, but a big Jason Newsted fan! |

The band has a lot of talent (and more success than I could ever dream of having) but it has started to all sound the same. I have to watch my back when I'm around two of my friends and I start to have an opinion about Metallica; they'll start to verbally assault The Mars Volta for some reason. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
