  • There's a lot of guitar layering action going on right here, who knows how many guitar tracks exaclty found their way into the final song.
    Anyway, I managed to get all the little rhythm and lead parts in there so this is a complete version with only all the guitar parts.

      Juan José Fonseca Godoy It was a joke. A good distortion is whatever sounds good to the player. Some people don't even like distortion at all. Some people could even get a good sound out of the Boss Metal Zone if they tried hard enough, but thats beside the point. The point here is you clearly can't tell satire when you see it.

      The tone is actually a lot thicker sounding that it actually was. A lot of that thickness comes from multi-tracking and layering. James used little gain, just enough to get it solid and crunchy, but never really distorted and saturated. A lot of the solid feel about the tone is his heavy handed picking and palm muting.

      Actually we do and in complete detail too. I'm talking about the exact amp settings, EQ settings, the cabinets and microphones Metallica used etc. They did use the strategy 400 on this album, they also used the Mark III, the Quad and the IIC+ (they recorded with whatever amp they felt sounded good on the day) many people believe the entire thing was recorded through a IIC+ or a Marshall slaved into a IIC+ but they're entirely wrong. Flemming Rasmussen published his notes from the recording sessions. So if you want to know how to get this tone you'll find it.

    • @charliezelenofftributeband3131
      @charliezelenofftributeband3131 Před 7 lety +10

      They did but they didn't use it on every song. They used a Mark III on some songs, a IIC+ on other songs and a Quad too. If you guys want to know exactly how AJFA was recorded, what cabinets were used, what amps, what EQ settings (etc) scroll through this thread www.gearslutz.com/board/so-much-gear-so-little-time/58664-condenser-mic-identification-metallica.html the producer himself reveals it all.

      The guitar tone is extremely similar, they described it themselves as being the same as the black album tone but with more bass, no mods and more highs, the gain is about the same. Black album had some pretty aggressive high mids and a little less highs though. Not more bass, but the bass was indeed focused out on the album.

      mikey1974 hetfield I don’t know about too complicated. It’s just not as good. I think Dave dresses things up too much because stripped down they wouldn’t sound good. I wouldn’t add or subtract to any Metallica riff. Some of Dave’s riffs could change drastically and no one would know the difference.

    I don't like all the dark elements surrounding metal. But as a teenager i heard One, around '93 it must be, out of nothing and with no experience of Metal what so ever. It got a grip on me right away, the sheer deep intensity of this sound. I don't do metal anymore, but AJFA became my reference point for metal in general, and metalsound in general. Apart from the complexity and agression on this album, the razorsharp sound is so brutal. That tight synchronized guitar and drum sound. It grips you by the nuts. Imagine how this sound works for teenager back then, toughness welded in Music. I really could relate to this album. I've litteraly, cliché but true, played this tape in my room for hours. I've noticed the last 7 months i'm in it again..Watching the State Of Mercury shzlle helps for sure. He does recreate the AJFA sound *100 %* legit
