I find most of the bass-added remasters to be pretty sloppy, with the earliest just clumsily overdubbing bass over top, and many others doing a better job in terms of integration but making it too prominent in the mix.

I feel this guy does the best job of making it fit organically. Better yet, he did it five times over, starting quite light and each time adding a bit more bass, so you can even have exactly the amount you want. This is the one I like best, but you can dial it down by picking any of the other ones (or pump it up one more with v5).

I've always found the thing where bands who made incredible music in the past just seem to lose that really fascinating. They have years to just sit around and come up with great riffs and song ideas, and they seem to stockpile them, based on interviews I've read. But then the results come out and again and again they're always just listenable-at-best slogs.

I get that, and I always feel sorry for bands that don't want to stick with that one time they were on top of the world because it would ultimately be boring, but also then languish because no one wants to hear anything else. Still, Metallica does seem to want to return to their older style and they've tried to get there in various forms since 2008, but they can't make it work any more.

Hardly a unique story, but it's interesting all the same.
