Metallica (And Justice For All)

I've talked about Metallica before, but I was mainly talking about the Ride The Lightning album, or at least, the songs I was working on at the time.
And Justice for All is definitely one of my favorite Metallica albums. The album itself is borderline prog metal, which is f*cking awesome! I love prog, and I love metal, so this album makes me smile. All the while being this weird but cool prog style, it's also super heavy, and beautifully written.
HOWEVER.
There are a few problems that make this album NOT my favorite. As in, these problems make me super sad.
PROBLEM NUMBER 1: The mixing is awful. The overall sound quality of this album freaking sucks. The main problem being that the bass is super low. So low to the point of it being practically inaudible. I'm a bass player, so this upsets me on a personal level of wanting to learn some of the songs. This isn't just a problem with me, either. Pretty much all Metallica fans agree that it should be fixed. Actually, someone made a remix of the album entitled: And Justice for Jason that fixes the bass sound. All I can say is, I want that copy.
PROBLEM NUMBER 2: This is just my opinion, but I have kind of an issue with the ordering of the last couple songs. To Live Is To Die is the 8th song on this album of 9. It's the instrumental song on the album, and it's dedicated to the late Cliff Burton. This is the most epic song on the album, by far. It's one of the most epic Metallica songs ever written. So here's a rhetorical question, why is Dyers Eve; the fastest, heaviest, most retardedly mood-breaking song that Metallica ever, EVER wrote, right after it?
Don't get me wrong, Dyers Eve is a great song. But I think putting it as the last song on the album, especially right after To Live is to Die, is just stupid. To Live is to Die should've been the last song. That's basically what I've been trying to say.
PROBLEM NUMBER 3: This is only really toward Dyers Eve, which I find kind of strange looking at the rest of this metal album... but the sound of the double kick peddle drives me up the wall. I freaking hate the sound of nu-metal/modern metal, and a good part of that reason is that the kick peddle sounds like a f*cking click track. It's unacceptable. You have this heavy metal band, right? I want my heavy metal to be backed with heavy, manly men drums. Not stupid, clicky, chicken sh*t. It upsets me. It doesn't fit the sound at all, and it's annoying on top of that. You don't even need the band to be upset by it. If you just listen to the drum track, you wouldn't be going like, "Yeah!" you'd go like, "Why?"
That's kind of my big question towards this album. "Why?" This could've been the best if you just didn't dick around.
Complaints aside, this is actually a great album. Go buy it. Or steal it.
