Another (more humorous) Metallica "Death Magnetic" thread
A client of mine just sent me the following:

Quote:
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

Does anyone find it ironic that even on YouTube, the dynamics on that recording are pretty good? There's actually contrast in there...


Heh - The "Ghetto Blaster" line... Cute...

I think the original song "Master of Puppets" was released in 1986.

This originated on the Andy Sneap Forum. I think the guys are considering doing another song...Enter Soundman. Not sure when or even if that will happen though.

Here's another sickening aspect.
YouTube - Metallica Death Magnetic - CD vs. "Guitar Hero" comparison

The guitar hero version even sounds better, though not as good as "Master of Puppets".
