A YouTube clip comparing sound on the two formats can be viewed by clicking on the video below.


Fans have complained on internet forums that the dynamic range heard on the CD version is not as good as the 'Guitar Hero' version, reports Musicradar.com.

More Metallica mayham..

Given all that Metallica has done, said, and been through in the last 20 years, what could they still do that would lead bloggers to ask, "What the hell is wrong with Metallica?" In this case, the answer is fairly pedestrian but still dumb: censor bloggers.

Ok so I was surfing around and came across something interesting.. It seems as though napster killers Metallica has had a change of heart and has decided to take advantage of file sharing and the net.(read that as we want more money, so we're also going to use the inter-web) Here is a brief summary of the momentous event.. You can post your thoughts, dislikes, flames, and comments below..

Great U turns of our time

German power metallers GammaRay return with their 9th studio album which finds them continuing the saga that was their 1996 album Land of the Free. For those of you not familiar, GammaRay is the brainchild of former Helloween guitarist Kai Hansen. This sequel isn't so much a continuation of its predecessor, but more of homage to its sound and feel.

"Into the Storm" takes you into the belly of the beast with double kick drums and lightening-fast guitar playing. Enjoy the video..

The song Terror Train is from the Demons and Wizards album Touched by the Crimson King and is based on the Dark Tower series of books written by Stephen King, in which The Crimson King is the main antagonist (Walter, the 'Dark Man', etc.).

Enjoy this video.
