Love Cliff's bass pounding like a monolith throughout this mix - fantastic work!

Will never ever understand why the bass was always mixed low on Metallica records. I have a couple of theories but would rather hear the opinions of others. This sounds AMAZING though!!!

all that's left is escape, and the whole album will soon be healed

There is no escape, and thats for sure

Bass is mixed just perfectly; it’s not overpowering, but still clear when it’s the only part moving (2:35 is a good example). Well done

The intro was my phone ringtone for years

I love how audible the growl of the bass is here. Excellent job!

after the spider chord part whatever the bass is doing before the solo is hard to hear in the real mix you can still hear it well when kirk starts here

4:26 I always loved those last notes of the solo, the way this is emphasized here with the video, man I feel vindicated

My two cents: Working hard to finish the book by Halloween, so releases like this are a nice change of pace/welcome surprise as I write and illustrate! While a bit of raw power is taken away from the guitars-or-nothing approach of the original mix, the most immediate difference, here, are the drums. In the original mix, they're pounding but muddy and tend to get lost in the storm; in your version, I can hear every tom, snare and double kick through a highly balanced mix (the double bass, in particular, being a total delight). In short, nothing is too quiet or loud, the clarity of the individual instruments working in harmony to give a united, concise attack. This goes for the lyrics, which sound enclosed by the other the instruments but not caged by them nor shouting over them; meanwhile, the bass and guitars fit together like a glove-Cliff not being too loud, but still having a chance for his melodies to be heard when he isn't Atlas holding up the world. Criticisms are obviously scant, but there *is* a scream at 5:40 that sounds a little distracting. Overall, though, this remix/remaster is about as good as it gets. Clear without too much polish, it pounds to the core but goes down easy. Some of your best work! \m/

Not even a minute in and banging like a headcase. Post-listen thoughts: that execution footage added a level of detail which, when both are combined, is (and I mean this as a compliment creatively) hideously confronting. Humans can be monsters.

Love how tight the snare sounds, guitars are crunchier, bass obviously more prominent in the mix. Definitely one of your best reworks

They were just young boys writing this timeless metal.. thank you as usual for your excellent remixes

Suberb work Ahdy! It's not one of those remixes that try emphasize certain instuments, like just bass guitar, but is genuinely a balanced and an improvement instead of just a curiosity. 11/10

My two cents: This bangs!

So glad to see you back at it. An amazing remix. It was like hearing it for the first time all over again.

I'm so glad you kept the scream. It fits so well.

OMG the one I have been waiting for! Thank you so much!

this sounds absolutely incredible! all the instruments sound clear and it feels like there's so much space in the mix. metallica should hire you to remix their songs, you do an amazing job!

We need full album in this mix!! It's heavy as a fucking tank

WOW!!!! This was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING Ahdy, TOP NOTCH from start to finish. And the execution footage added in was the icing on the cake, just frickin AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Long have i waited

Glad you were able to post this again. I thought I was going crazy when I first found out when I couldn't find your original video anymore.

Iam so sad that this masterpiece does not get more views. I LOVE you work man. You made me fall in love with Metallica again

As always great great job

the thing i like about Ahdy is the use of live footage and the fact he respects the songs and albums when remastering them. you can actually hear stuff that wasnt in the original mixes because of one reason or another. like on the original you can hear cliff but you cant feel him, on this remaster/mix you can feel the thump of the bass

Hello Andy! Your remasters are the real thing! Could you also do some Death songs? It's a shame there are close to no remasters of Death songs on YT with cool sound like yours, any thoughts? I'm sure you'd do a great job! Maybe start with Crystal Mountain? ;D

5:01 most badass part of the song

I can't get enough if this guitar solo. Unbelievable.

Faces of Death ;) Great mix!

Just when I start to play it here you are :)

Great work dude!!!

Great video, my fingers actually gripped with fear! 🤘🤘🤘

Wake up, Ahdy released a new Metallica remix

Outstanding!

I've been a Metallica fan for 30 years. I found this channel by sheer accident when I stumbled across the remixed version of Blackened. These are absolutely shit fucking hot mate.

This version is better.Beautiful barrel sound and double bass. It was always annoying on this album to realize that in some songs there is an abundance of double bass, but the ears practically did not catch it. And now I can clearly hear all of Lars' work.

This needs THREE CENTS

Your videos are the modern music videos for the classics

Chills.

Very nice work on a brilliant song.

Chunkchunkchunkchunkchunk love it! If mixes were done like this back in the 80s maybe I would have picked up the bass instead! Nice job 👍

I honestly don't f with the stock lightning + scream intro, I just don't want to hear it every time I replay this, but I love everything else.

God this is amazing.

THIS IS EPIC! 🤘🤘

YEAAAAAH BUDDDY HEAVYWEIGHT.THAT IS HEAVVY AMAZING WORK.

patiently waiting for escape :)

Amazing ❤

This is awesome! It would be sick to hear your take on some fear factory!

Best Work Dude!

thanks Ahdy !!!! from argentina =)

good footage!

Clean Pure Sound!! One of the best guitar solos... Probs to Kirk & MetallicA

Damn that sounds banging 🤘

Eye of the Beholder next!!

Good lord.. 🤘 Every time there's a new remix/remaster added it feels like Christmas. Please please please upload you new mixes for us, i wouldn't mind donating some coins your way for that..

I've listened to this remix like 15 times and I think the work you've done is incredible. I have an idea for you to make a remix. I have always wanted to listen to No Leaf Clover as a studio version. I don't know if you can, but the result would be quite interesting.
