    Mastodon - Crack the Skye (entire album) streamed on their myspace

    New songs are killer. I really like the direction they took on this album. :rock: I find the production very refreshing to the ears compared to most of the super polished/perfect sounding metal mixes these days. I will definitely be picking up this CD when it's out. Fantastic artwork and...

    Metal Production Clip Comments/Suggestions

    I've been working on trying to get decent sounding production for awhile now, and this is the latest I've been able to do; It's only a short riff repeated a few times. Here it is: http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=1AD837592A917D26 Any suggestions appreciated...
