Wouldn't it be sweet if Metallica remastered AJFA?

yea,if they remastered it we might be able to hear the basslines!

[QUOTE=Sph]Yeah, Rasmussen produced AJFA.
[/QUOTE]

Lars and James did the cd themselves, they realised how crap it was sounding, so they got Rasmussen in.

hahahaha,i wonder why they didnt keep him?

[QUOTE=willis2441]yea,if they remastered it we might be able to hear the basslines![/QUOTE]

:lol: I believe that's the point he was tryin' to make.

[QUOTE=Dave]Lars and James did the cd themselves, they realised how crap it was sounding, so they got Rasmussen in.[/QUOTE]

He didn't fix it though. :confused:

[QUOTE=PepsiMetal]He didn't fix it though. :confused:[/QUOTE]

Just imagine how bad it would of been without him.

I shudder to think

[QUOTE=timmySmi][url]http://www.jasonizer.com/justice.html[/url] If you have ever thought of what the songs would sound like with bass click on this link. A bass player named Lorike has redone the basslines and mixed them into the original score and it sounds great.

asides from that Iam a bass player and have being playing for 6 years and I've listened to this album over and over and yes in certain songs there are faint sounds of the bass. The only song where its near enough audioable is To Live Is To Die. Fast forward the song up to the 2nd solo around 5:30, You can quite easily hear the bass.[/QUOTE]
yea yea, nice remastering there. i agree entirely:thumb:

finally an agreement! lol

[QUOTE=Lesbian_Seagull]Wouldn't it be sweet if Metallica remastered AJFA?[/QUOTE]
yeah, but the orig is definately unique sounding. i love that.

[QUOTE=Dave]Lars and James did the cd themselves, they realised how crap it was sounding, so they got Rasmussen in.[/QUOTE]
...Rasmussen?

Rattelhead, where the hell is your Testament thread ? I was looking for it yesterday and I didn't find it, therefore couldn't bump it for you :p Still didn't find something to bump it with though...

unlucky... aparently all of the T threads go slow...:(... but there are loads of threads that ive never seen before on any of the pages, and they just pop up with like thousands of posts. so it can't be gone for good..... right?

Must have skipped it then...I'll look for it again :p

For sure its not gone for real...I would think

cool, cheers for the effort, man. whats your name?

[QUOTE=Rattlehead]...Rasmussen?[/QUOTE]

He was their producer for all their earlier albums. Not sure if he did KEA though.

Haha has anyone read Lars Ulrich's writeup in the current drummer poll? It pretty much tells about how he's old, short, and how he sucks. It's pretty funny.

[QUOTE=Rattlehead]cool, cheers for the effort, man. whats your name?[/QUOTE]

James. But call me Jammie :p

Whats yours ?

[QUOTE=Thor]Haha has anyone read Lars Ulrich's writeup in the current drummer poll? It pretty much tells about how he's old, short, and how he sucks. It's pretty funny.[/QUOTE]
What's so funny about it? It's true.

Yeah Lars is'ent anything special on drums if anything he's very overated.

[QUOTE=Aw3someman]What's so funny about it? It's true.[/QUOTE]

Yup nothing funny about it. He's short, he's nothing great, and whatever else was in there was true also.

Are ya'll kidding me? AJFA remaster? that's completely unnecessary and pointless. as far as good sound go's AJFA and MOP are their best two albums. If anything needs re-mastering it's KEA and RTL and to Re-master them they just wouldn't be the same. It's like taking a old movie that's in black and white and making it into color...it would be gay

I'd still like to hear it.

yeah someone post a link it

and don't diss Lars, who cares if he's a bit on the small side.

[QUOTE=Stormrider331]James. But call me Jammie :p

Nat, as in Nathaniel

[QUOTE=timmySmi]Yeah Lars is'ent anything special on drums if anything he's very overated.[/QUOTE]
he isn't overrated, no-one really thinks he's anything special on the drums.

that's not the point though, what he does for Metallica is perfect for what they are, and they need nothing else.

[QUOTE=timmySmi]Yeah Lars is'ent anything special on drums if anything he's very overated.[/QUOTE]
hes pretty good now it just took him 20 years to catch up with every other decent drummer lmao

[QUOTE=Rattlehead]he isn't overrated, no-one really thinks he's anything special on the drums.

Without getting into another debate.


Of course he's good for Metallica Iam just saying theres alot of fanboy Metallica fans I come across who are like YEAH YEAH LARRRRZ! BEST DRUMMER EVER!?!.

He has used session drummers in recordings of Albums aswell i.e Black album and Ride The Lightning which I find unnecessary.There are better drummers out there In the metalworld but yeah I still would say Lars is an Irreplaceable member of Metallica.

Yea lars isn't really overrated at all. I don't know anyone that thinks he's great or special even though most of my friends like metallica. He's a decent drummer overall, and pretty good for the band. I hate his attitute though. Ugh.

i loved kill 'em all and enjoyed ride the lightening. however after the master of puppets release, i lost what respect i had for them. eh

I've been listening to a lot of KEA a lot more and I must say that it has moved up a bit in terms of albums I like. AJFA is still my favorite followed by Garage Inc.

That's odd.
Normally it's after The Black Album that people say that.

I pretty much don't like the Black album. It's last in my book. I even put St. Anger above it.

i love the Black Album.

yeah i love garage inc. great album.

the prince ftw!

[QUOTE=timmySmi]"Without getting into another debate...."[/QUOTE]
lol, debates are good, i really enjoyed that last one, despite getting slightly worked up at some points.

[QUOTE=Mr. Freeze]I pretty much don't like the Black album. It's last in my book. I even put St. Anger above it.[/QUOTE]
Weird.
What makes you hate it so much?

Meh it's just nothing I like much. Solid album but over all the songs don't attack you or come out at you like other songs do.

Cliff Burton solo with Mustaine still in Metallica era.

MoP is probably the definitive moment of 'tallica song wise anyway

I prefer Ride The Lightning.

Meh I'ld take AJFA over MoP in that cat. but comes very close.

AJFA has been remastered. All the older albums (KEA-AJFA) have been. There's a difference between remixing and remastering. AJFA needs to be remixed. That means they take the master tracks and mix it all over again. Remastering basically means that they take the finished product and filter it and what-not with newer technology and clean the sound up a bit to make it sound more current. They did this back in like '98 or something.

Edit:
[quote]He has used session drummers in recordings of Albums aswell i.e Black album and Ride The Lightning which I find unnecessary.There are better drummers out there In the metalworld but yeah I still would say Lars is an Irreplaceable member of Metallica.[/quote]
Has he actually admitted to it? Or is it only a rumor? I've heard that he only used session drummers on AJFA, but of course it's only a rumor on the internet. I don't think he's ever confirmed using session drummers

I don't know if he admitted. But there are some rumors that go as far as him using studio drummer because he couldn't play double bass that fast on Dyer's Eve.

And you're right, all of their early albums have been remastered. Here's a question. Anyone have any of their early albums on casette? haha

I have black album and AJFA on casette, and Ride the Lightning on vynil. Well, I don't, my dad has it on vynil and he has it in storage. So it's proably warped to hell now.

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]I prefer Ride The Lightning.[/QUOTE]
Here here! :chug:

Ride The Lightning is my favourite old school Metallica. Its got such an evil polish to it thats lacking in their other releases.
