On en parle pas beaucoup ici (et tant mieux), mais sur metallicabb.com on ne parle que de ça : le problème du mastering, notamment la surcompression et la distorsion dans certains morceaux.
Quelqu'un a eu l'idée de faire une parodie de Master Of Puppets sur ce sujet, que j'ai trouvé très drôle :
Citation:
Death Magnetic play, bang your head away
Clipping is its self destruction
Distorted fuzzy mess, totally unclear
The guy who mastered went and fucked up
Taste it, you will see
Clipping violently
Dedicated to
Pissing all of you!
Keeps clipping faster
Redo your Master
You fucking bastards!
Redo your Master
Remaster
Remaster Magnetic, It's distorted and clips
Hurting your mind and raping your ears
Blinded by fuzz, you can't hear a thing
Keep bitching at Warner, they might do something
Remaster

Keep bitching at Warner, they might do something

Volume up all the way, the fans they will betray
Music won't get any clearer
Pain monopoly, aural misery
Chop the peaks off of the music
Taste it you will see
Clipping violently
Dedicated to
Pissing all of you!
Keeps clipping faster
Redo your Master
You fucking bastards!
Redo your Master
Remaster
Remaster Magnetic, it's distorted and clips
Hurting your mind and raping your ears
Blinded by fuzz, you can't hear a thing
Keep bitching at Warner, they might do something

Remaster, remaster, where's the quality I'm after?
Remaster, remaster, you promised only lies
Clipping, clipping, all I hear or see is clipping
Clipping, clipping, clipping at my cries
FIX IT!
Why is it worth all of the bitching fans and stuff?
Loudness war without a reason
Neverending buzz, drift along in fuzz
Now the clipping's out of reason
I will clippify
Make all of your ears die
I will clip at you
Now I clip you too
Keeps clipping faster
Redo your Master
You fucking bastards!
Redo your Master
