loudness war, everyone's waveforms looked like that in 2008

Prove it

Trick Jubin is mostly to blame
The 2000s will go down as the worst decade ever for rock/metal production

guess their luck ran OUTAHHH.

>Metallica
look at the waveform of virtually any modern song
They're all compressed to hell

Your headphones suck

also Metallica has never had good production. funny because they were perfectionistic about everything else.

Blame Rick Rubin for this, but Metallica has done a shitty album mix before that nearly ruined the whole thing with "And Justice for All". Luckily, people have remixed all these tracks with proper mixes that have dynamic range and where you can HEAR THE FUCKING BASS GUITAR.

Good headphones cannot fix clipping and unintentional distortion.

Prove it

No, educate yourself.

It’s not bad. It sounds better that way.

literally fucking google the words "loudness wars" retard

is this bait or are you genuinely retarded?

>Luckily, people have remixed all these tracks with proper mixes that have dynamic range and where you can HEAR THE FUCKING BASS GUITAR.
mate, they put out an official remaster last year. it sounds great btw, totally worth a listen.

Can somebody please explain in absolute brainlet terms what "brickwalling", "compression", and "clipping" are and how they relate to each other?

Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets both sound incredible.

Don’t know the first term, but compression basically decreases the dynamics and clipping occurs when the gain is too high

bickwalling is self explanatory as fuck, you're both retarded

in short. there's a loudness level to every sound in recording, let's say from 0 to 100. some sounds are naturally lower in volume than others, and that's how it' supposed to be. to make drums punchy, you turn them up to 100 while rest of track is around 50. this is how dynamic works.
brickwalling is when you turn almost everything to 100. result is a worse sound with no depth, it feels like every instrument plays right next to your ear.

The loudness war is an overrated meme that's blamed way too much. Audiophiles are so obsessed with it they'll think they hear brickwalling in their tap water.

I can't use a microwave because of this.

You're bad at math

based audiophile

Rick Rubin is a shit producer and Metallica a shit band.

still no bass

They have nice waveforms though
