Spit out the Bone instantly became my favourite song from Metallica's Hardwired...to self-destruct album. The thrashiest of the lot and sounds huge. :rock: I heard the rhythm guitar track on its own and trying to work out what amp/s it is: _8uifUWzAd0 To me that seems to have a Marshall...

I hear that as well. I don't get it because their live sound as captured in the videos was like that six years ago. Yet when I saw & heard them live at the time, the rhythm guitar especially was very crunchy, in your face and full of impact. And the rhythm guitar sound changed for different...

I agree. I didn't think much at first but now it's become a firm favourite.

Which songs in particular can you hear the Wizard amp? It's a Modern Classic model isn't it?

He also wrote the riff in the bridge of Creeping Death, where the lyrics are "Die, by my hand. I creep across the land, killing first born man". He first used it in the Exodus song Die by the sword. In fact there's lots of little rhythm riffs of his littered throughout the first three albums...

I agree. I finally got hold of Hardwired...to self-destruct a couple of days ago. After listening to the album once-through in the car, I thought that this shows how 'The Presidio Sessions' in 2001 was the biggest piece of shit they ever put together. I'm glad they didn't officially release it...

I'm playing along to "Murder One" right now with my electric guitar, it's fucken awesome! The whinging I made about their guitars not crunching? Well this new song has some serious Metallica CRUNCH! Crunch Berries in spades!

I like both. The MarkIV sounded fuller, but could easily be set to sound like the SLO ("Ess-Ell-Oh").

I'm glad that James gave that up, I felt it was always an insecurity mask. To me that's something that did not really manifest until at least 1988, two years after Cliff tragically died. I'm guessing that Cliff's death made him feel even more abandoned like with his parents, and exacerbated the...

Would a highly boosted Vox amp have a lot of sag? Considering that it has no negative feedback at all? Just as an alternative...

I'm similar- mostly a rhythm player rather than lead. And yeah James Hetfield was a big influence with that.

Just turn the bass up and play looser to get that sluggishness.

I've seen Kirk with that Marshall Plexi (labelled "Kirk #1) since 2002 when they were recording St. Anger. Kirk said at the time he uses it "for more bark". I don't know what "bark" means tone-wise. I thought the Plexi, Soldano SLO and the Recto were Kirk's rig? Strange though that the Recto is...

Here here!

Am I nuts or do I hear a faint chorusing effect in both guitars throughout the song? That was the first thing I noticed when I heard this song yesterday. My ears instantly lit up. It's not a washy Rush-like chorus sound, or the super-80s rack detune thing or just a chorus pedal swooshing in...

I'd definitely hold onto that Superbass.

Moth into Flame has been growing on me a lot as a song. But tell you what- hearing it like THIS is bloody awesome! :rock: :rock: : B3TBfBDeCPo

That's brilliant. The Ampete is a fantastic tool for studios and for back lines.

An older Visual Sound H2O (plain logo) work great for this.

Is James doing double-tracking for this new album using the different amps? Or just playing through a multi-amp rig in one track? Just to compare- this is just one amp and it sounds shitloads crunchier and heavier: vyPR6MeIP4c
