# Talk:Beyond Magnetic

There seem to be no (or no apparent) loudness issues on this release's mix, which would suggest, even though the issue was downplayed at the time, that an effort was made to avoid such issues in the future. Audio issues like the loudness issue, along with the snare drum sound on "St. Anger", are the two only major audio controversies in recent Metallica history, the earliest being the lack of bass guitar on "And Justice for All...".

I think this mix is better than Death Magnetic's mix.  It has a warmer texture.  And the drums were too loud on Death Magnetic.  Beyond Magnetic is perfect.  Production-wise, it might even be my favorite Metallica album.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.248.90.204 (talk) 00:43, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
