To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the 'And Justice For All' album, Metallica has announced that it will be re-releasing the album.

It won't be a normal re-release because the audio will be remastered plus you can buy the album on many different formats.

Metallica will be re-releasing the remastered version of 'And Justice For Fall' on November 2nd, 2018. Some fans are already speculating that the remaster should finally improve the original album's audio quality.

The story goes is that Metallica drummer ,Lars Ulrich, wanted the drums to be louder in the original audio of the album's recording.

As a result of this, the audio for the bass guitar was lowered. Therefore, the bass guitar is barely audible when you listen to the original album.

Metallica never really went back to rectify the bass guitar issue, but now it looks like this remaster will finally fix that problem once and for all.

The 'And Justice For All' remaster will be released digitally, plus in a variety of different physical formats too!
