Dude, avoid St. Anger like the plague unless you've already got it - the single most poorly produced album in my entire collection. When I first heard it I thought my CD was faulty. Did you know it's the most returned album in history? Ref compression wars - listen to this and Death Magnetic to see that listening habits have changed in the last 20 years.
RE: Compression Wars - Death Magnetic is immense but you can clearly hear the distortion where Lars or whoever has said "make it even louder... great, but can it go any louder?... just a smidge louder...". My mate Dave told me there's apparently an online petition of 20,000+ signatories asking Metallica to remaster it. Great, great album though.
Death Magnetic is unlistenable, the Iggy remix of Raw Power is MOR compared to DM, it justs batters you senseless after a couple of tunes, its like chewing silver paper. I know it's not very metal but I'd sign a petition to turn it down.
