Cool interview, thanks. I know it's how they, and other bands, record, but it's still weird reading how they can record stuff on the new album with out even seeing each other for days/weeks.

Yeah, I'm thinking not quite the way to create "organically" as they have mentioned doing.

Putting the final touch on a record sounds like it should be a group effort. Are they not allowed to critique each or how does that work. If James does an overdub one day without Lars hearing it, does Lars know what he have done or does listen to it when he gets back, or ? It just sounds like a very incoherent way of doing things. What I'm saying is that they should hire me to look after everything in the studio

It's really quite common for band members not to be in the studio all the time. Lives, wives & kids etc. They will have a log of everything that has been recorded plus, they have Fidelman who will know. It's less intensive than previously and more in line with who they are as people now. Less obsessive about minutiae and needing to have a say in everything. It sound perfectly normal to me. In fact, that was how it was when I was in a band back in the 90s and we were recording stuff. During the week the guitarist and singer would add stuff or tweak things and I would listen and comment when I came in once a week to do drums or bass or whatever needed doing.

Yeah I know it's normal, I just don't like it From the interview it sounded like they didn't really bump into each much at all

From the interview it sounded like they didn't really bump into each much at all I had this idea that they would have all been sitting around sifting through all the bits and pieces selecting stuff for the boxsets and doing it together, likely recalling old memories but that also seems as if they have not really shared their opinions on all that with each other. Busy people. If I had that much coin and pull I'd have a million other things to attend to as well.

Busy people. If I had that much coin and pull I'd have a million other things to attend to as well. Exactly my thoughts as well. Seems rather impersonally. But then again, I read the Hetfield interview and I seem to recall him talking about them sharing memories from the old days when watching some of the stuff. Maybe the timeline is screwing with us and they had a sit down later on.

Busy people. If I had that much coin and pull I'd have a million other things to attend to as well. I think it's important to recognise what stage the (I presume) record is at. Of course they would have all been together to write the record but when it comes to overdubs they don't all need to be in the studio. Look at Rob's bass tracking on Making Magnetic - there was no one there. It's not a big deal - they work as a group to write the songs, to construct the music then when they need to record "final" takes there is no pressure to all be in the studio to hear James sing 4 lines over and over again. It's all good.

It rather seems like everyone seperatly found some stuff and delivered it to whoever in charge, and that was it.

Well why would they all be involved? They all submitted photos and materials (that's been said by Lars somewhere) and then the boxes were pulled together by a team (of which, Dan, seems to co-ordinate).

I totally confused your post with another one. So well done me for that. And to you, Sir, I present you with a medal, sash and crown. I don't know why so don't question it. Just accept it and smile. Damn you.

I'm looking forward to the MOP remaster but not if it's just the guitars turned up.

The RTL remaster is actually quite good, FTB and Creep sound great.

How does the double bass at the end of FTB sound compared to the original?
