I think it tries to play on the vibe from the past, a little Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning, AJFO, with a tad of Black mix, thats what I hear, with James new voice sound.

The Day that Never Comes is just Sanitarium/Fade to Black combined - thats all they do for the most part anymore.......just one example

...just wanted to be sure I wasn't the only one who thought it sounded like poo...

Mastered by Muppets



This is a collaboration work of many members from another forum, but I'm sure you'll be interested anyway....this is our reply to the f***d up sound of Death Magnetic & the loudness war in general.


I'm sure most of you have read the lyrics somewhere on the web already, if not, here they are again:


MASTERED BY MUPPETS

End of session day, Rubin works away:
I'm your source of song-destruction
Tunes that hurt you ear, poor sound engineer
Leaving spikes on my instruction
Trust me you will see
Volume’s all you need
Dedicated to
How I'll limit you

Compressing faster
Limit your Master
Your albums sell faster
With a loud Master
Master

Mastered by muppets, brickwalling your dreams
Clipping, distorting and smashing extremes
Ruined by me, you can't hear a thing…
Just spiking snares, and auto-tuned screams
Mastered
Mastered
Rubin’s my name, and I'll hear you scream
Bastard
Bastard

Need to mix this way, never you dismay
”Loud” makes death magnetic clearer
Gain monopoly, ritual Waves L3
Squash your tracks til it’s severe
Gate and you will see
More and more dB
Dedicated to
How I’m killing you

Compressing faster
Limit your Master
Your albums sell faster
With a loud Master
Master

Mastered by muppets, brickwalling your dreams
Clipping, distorting and smashing extremes
Ruined by me, you can't hear a thing…
Just spiking snares, and auto-tuned screams
Mastered
Mastered
Rubin’s my name, and I'll hear you scream
Bastard
Bastard

Master, Master, where's the version I've been after?
Bearded, Bastard, you promised only lies
Blaster, Blaster, recorded on a ghetto blaster?
Laughter, laughter, laughing at those highs
Spike to me!

Lars ain’t worth all that – “natural” kick and hats
Kirk adds wah without a reason
Never ending phrase, Jaymz goes on for days
Rob, your shirt is out of season…
I’ll record til 5 (then)
I will help you buy
Sandals that suit you
Now you look cool too

Lol!! BTW, the Johnny Cash Hurt version is a taste of what to expect from Rick... Listen to the ending. Brutal distortion!!
