Re: Metallica
When I first played "Death Magnetic" I noticed they haven't given Trujillo much space either, his bass is not quite as muted as Jason's but still not up front enough. They should have realized that a talented bass player deserves to be heard, and Helps the entire sound of the band. I swear some of their recordings sound like they were done in a garage with a small cassette deck instead of a proper studio.
I still like Metallica a lot, I just wish they cared more about the finished product than their own "Bandwith" on each song.
I have never seen them live, so if any fans that have can let me know if you Can hear the bass guitar please sound off.

Re: Metallica
My faves off of that album are: Ain't My Bitch, 2x4, King Nothing, Cure, Hero of the Day, and Mama Said.
But I think the coolest track on that album is Bleeding Me. What a great, pounding track. Especially the bridge, I just HAVE to crank it up when it gets to that part (starting just after the 4:30 mark)
Mama Said is another tune I really dig. I know they got a lot of flack for that one, including people saying that it's a country song. I like the lyrics, I like the music, hell, everything about it is cool, especially coming from a band like Metallica. It shows again they aren't (weren't) a one or two trick pony
I like the vast majority of Load. While it the sound and songwriting style had changed quite a bit from the Black Album, it's still very very good IMHO. When it first came out, I know a TON of people said they "sold out" or that it was no longer Metallica. At first, I wasn't overly impressed but after a couple of listens, I got to like it and never turned back.

Re: Metallica
Bleeding Me is my favourite Metallica track and I love Mama Said - a country song???! - pah, no way! The Outlaw Torn is probably my second fav track, so I for one love Load

Re: Metallica
I noticed that too. The bass is kind of blurred with the guitars (no definition). I still think it sounds pretty good (the album). I know some fans don't like what Rick Rubin does with his "dry" production style but I dig it. Rick also produced one of my favorite AC/DC albums - "BallBreaker."

bonk bonk on the head!!
Kill 'Em All's got a rawness I've never heard in Metallica before. James H. almost sounds like a completely different person. Amazing how his voice improved over the succeeding years. Haven't heard all of RTL but workin' on it. Will post more thoughts later.
