Acoustic Mic's For Machine Head

[cobhc]

Anyone know what mic's were used on descend the shades of night for acoustics? really like that tone

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

Me too, that whole song has really great textures, truly a masterpiece production, writing, and performance wise; though (no offense anyone) I'm thinking that that ghetto snare sound that comes in for a bit may be just a tad too ghetto IMO.

 

[cobhc]

yeah, it's a bit too harsh imo, but the normal snare sound is fucking nice though

 

[Jackal_Strain]

It's truly an impressive ending to an almost perfect album!

Slightly off topic -

Is this record really that good? I love everything by Machine Head up until Supercharger (which I bought, but can't stand), but they lost me after that one. I saw that video on Headbanger's Ball of one of the new songs. It was OK, but I felt silly listening to the teenage-angst lyrics. Should I get it?

 

[cobhc]

it's fucking awesome, worth it for imperium, descend the shades of night and days turn blue to gray

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

+1

 

[cobhc]

the tone on imperium is fucking crushing imo

 

[nwright]

Imperium's main riff and drum work are amon the best of the decade!!!!

Seriously, that song alone is worth the price of admission on this album. I really liked the additional song (Seasons Wither) on the US release. Overall, the album is very solid.

Seasons Wither is a beast of a song.
