Gojira - The Way....

[Lasse Lammert]

how fucking awesome is that please???
just had the first really thorough listen...great songs, loving the music...

the Mix i just kickass...big and still tons of clarity...awesome cymbals/overheads...loud but never messy/harsh.
great snare, great guitartones..bass....damn, everything...
I know I'm late and you already knew it


give me all the infos you can about ths recording please

 

[DominikJW]

True story, that's probably one of the best sounding albums I've heard. Would love to hear some info too!

 

[elmoe]

yeah, that album is fucking godlike! i love the mix and songs.. <3 gojira!

guitars where 6505 thru mesa cabs afaik



1:00 !!

 

[Jaymz]

5150 I think, with the new Jacko soloist thingy meh bob model!

 

[Sickan]

Why haven't you listened to this before, Lasse?
The kick on TWoAF is absolutely amazing, probably the most fitting kick I have ever heard.
I'm not a big fan of the snare but the rest of the mix makes up for it so immensely.

 

[SocialNumb]

Absolutely an awesome album IMO.

 

[Lasse Lammert]

Why haven't you listened to this before, Lasse?

no fucking idea....I feel ashamed!

the kick is indeed awesome..
the ONLY thing I don't like that much are the toms...sound a bit too sample-replaced to me...still good.
would have guessed 5150, too

 

[Djabthrash]

Awesome album. Drums were recorded at Logan Mader's studio.

Seen them live in France 2 months ago, and it was one of the best gigs i've ever seen in my life (and i'm telling you i've seen many AWESOME ones).

 

[JeffTD]

Drums recorded with Logan Mader in LA, vocals/guits/bass recorded in France. Mader mixed.

Guitars were 5150 III head, unknown cab - I assume it was either Mesa or the 5150 III matching cab. Head was not a Peavey 5150, tho! Pickups were definitely Duncan JB... both guys use the JB in either Joe's 2 SLS's or Christians RR5's.

There are pictures of overdubs being done at Logan's studio w/ a 5150 head (green channel), Mesa 4x12, and Logan's old signature ESP w/81.

In the past, both studio AND live, they use a TLM103 on guitar cabs. I can only assume since they did the guitars back home in France, that they used this mic again.

 

[beyond dead]

i seen a pod in there. it was probably just used for tracking though...


twoaf is one of my fav albums right now. caught them live with inflames, all that remains and 36cf in november. they totally kicked ass!

Damn you got rig sniping down to a science!

Damn you got rig sniping down to a science!

This album has my favorite production/mix out of any other album out there, I think... spent a good week trying to figure out WTF was used! Finally found in a GW interview, Joe said that Fender shipped them out a 5150 III and they used it for the tracking the new album.

Fuck I want that guitar tone.

 

[John_C]

TLM103 on a guitar cab......methinks i'll have to give it a try. I've always been too afriad of damaging them

I guess if you're starting with an awesome tone then it'd give a truthful representation

 

[Soundlurker]

great songs, loving the music...

the Mix i just kickass...big and still tons of clarity...awesome cymbals/overheads...loud but never messy/harsh.
great snare, great guitartones..bass....damn, everything...

+1 on all of that and I'd add that the mix has a unique character overall and it really fits the music.

 

[slashvanyoung]

Logan Mader is the new black.

This is the ONLY state-of-the-art modern ultra-clean metal production (this means excluding Bogren) that kinda floored me in quite a while. Damn impressive!

I just haven't made my mind up yet if I might prefer the dirtier/more organic sound of FMTS for this band. But generally speaking, this production kills!

 

[The Unavoidable]

This album is so great it's disgusting. There is nothing about it I do not love. Such great sound.

 

[Felix Neumann]

TLM103 on a guitar cab?? Can someone recommend a good position?

 

[John_C]

all the pictures i've seen of LDCs on cabs i've seen have been head on, just varied how far away from the dustcap they are

Thanks dude I think, I will try this some day. But I feel unsafe about the volume..don´t wanna hurt my TLM103. How loud should it be?

To Topic: This Album KILLS!!!

 

[Lasse Lammert]

shouldn't harm the tlm....
even if it was too loud it'd dostort and not just break right away
