Trust me all on this forum I don't want to start a pissing match between who's mixes sound better and blah blah blah. I get my panties in a bunch when I read all these new kids being called gods for demos that yes sound good sonically but have a big lack of any human feel to the mixes or are very lifeless thats all. As a older (hate saying that word lol) engineer I have seen a ton of guys come and go that followed the trends of how albums should sound by using the same gear or settings another guy is using or can just copy settings from stock gear thats very ez to do and takes no talent at all, but the guys that still are making great records are the ones that listen to the band and really take the time to craft a bands identity. I just don't hear that anymore so myself and studio team do try and make that happen for each band coming through the studio doors and also try and work with the limited budgets bands have, that's all.
So I want to ask this question to everyone. What was the one band or album that really thrown you back and you said to yourself holy fuck that production really made that band. It can be anything metal to whatever.
So let's all get along here and I really hope everyone will enjoy the new BOO cd when it comes out in 2011 as much as I have making the album. I will say the band is spot on, drums and guitars are going to be massive sounding, we spent a good deal of time making sure every vocal take, drum hit, and lead was perfect in every way so I would say this album is going to be best material to date from BOO and what I did respect in the BOO camp is the guys are really taking into account to give the fans the album they want to hear, I thought that was very cool on the bands part!
