I definitely don't listen to anywhere near as much metal now as I used too, nor are Andy's production jobs/mixes necessarily my favorite mixes/production jobs, but I'll ALWAYS have a place in my heart for metal and I'll always admire Andy's talent.
This forum really changed the way I look at music in general.
To be honest, before finding this place, I never had anywhere near as much respect for bassists and drummers, and also how drums and bass work in the music and in the mix as I do now.
Instead of being that idiotic guitarist that's only obsessed with finding the "holy grail of guitar tone", I've really learned to stop only just thinking about just one aspect and now instead I try to see the whole picture.
Although speaking of guitar tones, it's always awesome to have guys like Andy putting some great sounding, serious, tube amp and real cab tones which just stands out so much in a sea of overly digital, mediocre, same-ish sounding Axe FX tones that we keep hearing on some albums nowadays.
There's always someone that can learn something from listening to Andy's work, from reading his advice and of course reading this forum in general.
