Why is this album so praised? It’s fucking awful and forgettable. Shitty production, boring songs, etc etc. The guitar tone is shit too. It has no balls compared to the wonderful thick sound of RTL.

MoP was the beginning of the real selling out process, Metallica were already hugely famous from KEA and RTL but this was a noticable change in their sounds, less speed, fewer riffs, less aggression, less of everything that made the first 2 LPs really good. Because of that it was accessible and they became mainstream famous so I suppose their tactic worked. Maybe if they made a RTL2 they wouldn't have reached the level of commerical acclaim they did.
I've always felt that way about the guitar sounds. The composition is great, Battery Orion and Master of Puppets are some of my favourite metal songs ever, and the production is tighter than previous albums but there's something about the guitar and drums that just sounds a little hollow.
Shut up Dave
For one, RTL is all JCM800's and Tubescreamers, MoP is Mesa Dual Rectifiers and is scooped to all fuck, no mids.
What does megadeth use for rust in peace? I always thought master of puppets would sound great with those crunchy guitars.
It sounds like the beginning of control freak Lars' failed production efforts:
Jesus, how fucking retarded are people on this board?
Some expensive VHT and Bogner boutique shit
