Metallica fans have complained about the quality of the officially released CD recording of the band's new album, 'Death Magnetic', with many saying the version available on the 'Guitar Hero' computer game is better!!!

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

The fans knee jerk reactions have been to blame the mastering engineer on the album | Ted Jensen of Sterling Sound. Ted felt it necessary to respond to the fans and has reportedly written a forum post about the process.

"I'm certainly sympathetic to your reaction, I get to slam my head against that brick wall every day," he wrote. "In this case the mixes were already brick-walled before they arrived at my place.

Suffice to say I would never be pushed to overdrive things as far as they are here.

Believe me, I'm not proud to be associated with this one, and we can only hope that some good will come from this in some form of backlash against volume above all else."
