I always found listening to this album that guitars tortured the speakers. Although I'd listen to in on tapes back in days, I own the CD version and it's no different. After Reload I didn't bother listening to any new Metallica release. For me it's the first 3 albums then black album. And for the sake of the discussion, Jason was the best bass player in Metallica followed by Cliff.

I worked hard all my life and I reached the stage in my life when I can afford and buy things I need, not things I want. Regardles, I'm being reasonable. Although I'd like or want a particular bass, but don't need it as other basses can do the same thing.

I thought Dave Murray grew up in Clapton, but looking up in Google he was born in Edmonton and his family moved around London.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath Or You Suffer by Napalm Death, the song is only 3 seconds long

I've build two more bass traps today and mounted them to the walls. Roast dinner, rubbish TV, copious amount of Ale and some Jura whiskey. now watching Jools Holland not a big deal..

Is that you Jason?

Been watching Chic on BBC Four ( yeah I know it's not metal), closing down with Good Times.

Suggestion- it is likely that we have a winner and there are unlikely to be enough voters to beat 9. Can this month challenge be finalised early, so we can get on with next month challenge before we return to busy lives in New Year. Only a suggestion...

I voted after a couple of goes. My decision was based on the following. Song one - how I currently feel Song two- hilarious Song three- genuinity

Yeah agree with Mustaines vocal and face pulling, but David deserves a top ten metal bass players. I forgot to mention Frank Bello, so understated. Was a big fan in late 80s, early 90s. Can't wait to see Anthrax in October. I can't believe I never saw the original line up with Dan. I remember the Mettalica gig in 91, Jason was just full in 110% performance.

For metal fans I'd recommend Dave Ellefson Also Jason Newsted bass playing, shame some Richard interfered in mixing in Justice for all album

Didn't someone on BC suggested nose grease on strings?

My favourite is to just blow the dust off. And if it gets really bad , switch cleaner to make switches working. When push comes to shove Microcloth and lemon tree oil for rosewood fret board.

Answer is yes, you can quantize your drums. Adjust the velocity. I would split the drum beat placing kick , snare, , hi hat etc in individual tracks and pan to your likings. You could mimic various drum mixing technique.

Oasis should have been on the list in 90's

Live After Death

You have many options. There is no rule. You can get an nice clean sound recording bass through DI which captures the bass' s character. Once you have the track you have endless options to process it. If you want to capture your amp and cab character the place a mic or two in front of the speaker, I would usually have a mic just off the centre of the speaker anywhere from almost touching to up two 3 feet away. Another option is to have one signal to Interface and second from mic, you then mix the two. It's about imagination b, genre....Horses for courses. I prefer microphone technique , but have used VST for convenience.

This morning my DAW decided to get Christmas Eve off. It was my fault as I decided to click the update button then it f#cked off into the oblivion of the hard drive maze. 7 hours later and after a couple of tumblers of Scotch I retrieved it. Now , I feel a bit socially tired to mix/master the song. Anyway, hoping to contribute with my piece. Update. So, this is a cover version of DP Boulevard's 'Point if View'. Not something I listen to, but I've recently heard it in the radio and thought why not to do something different. Gear used , Played cheap drum kit I owned since May and practice once a weekish, Glyn John`s technique recording. ( I found this sounding best when using 4 mics) Guitars were played through Amplitbe 4 for convenience. Bass was recorded through a Fender bass combo , recorded with AKG112 mic almost touching the speaker just of the centre. Keys are Syntronik and Sample 4 played with midi Launchkey keyboards. The rest , co called vocals, well....I need to work on those.

I'd go for Brian May signature hair curler instead

It seem to appear that some rockstars are desperate to top up their pension. That bass is revolting!

"He also claimed that his reaction to the vaccine almost robbed him of his ability to play guitar, and that lockdowns stopped him from being able to make money from his music. Eric Clapton is one of the wealthiest musicians in the world, with a net worth of around $300 million. " Say no more. Never liked him...
