Part One: On 11th October 2008, Ian Shepherd, along with a handful of Metallica fans alike discussed the production issues with Metallica's Death Magnetic, and loudness in general with BBC4 Radio.

The result is amazing. The first major exposure for this issue, and a major step forwards in promoting our mission.

You should've mentioned details about the GH3 files having audible backing vocals, such as in The End of the Line, and different effects being heard in the Judas Kiss,

along with VERY nice bass lines you can't even hear or make out on the CD version.

@dolmayan0john What they are talking about is the dynamic range compression. It cannot be undone. It makes the quiter bits of a track louder and the loud bits quieter. so that the range of signal is reduced. Its destroying music and leads to a wall of noise with no imact or transients. No post matering software can undo this, let alone a crappy itunes one.

Lol at the radio presenter - "That's the beef"

Because Lars Ulrich thinks it sounds smoking in his car.

You know, remastering and re-releasing this album is a great idea for both parties. We'll get a cleaner sounding album (if they remaster it right) and the fat cats will get more money in their pockets. Seriously, why HAVEN'T they remastered it yet?

[Anvilshock]

Ah, sound examples. Good thing this interview was uploaded in the brilliant, clear and crisp quality of YouTube's 64 kbit/s mp3 audio. Top banana.

@irondaddymac It's called being a dick.

How can someone sign the online petition?

"Massive Props"? What the fuck kind of language is that?

[WHATISDIZ]

I dont care about the quality,loudness or anything I care about the riffs and solos
