Great "different" metal mixes.

[utak666]

I`m not looking for great sounding kicks, bone-crushing guitars or automation tricks. Just something that has great and sort of "unique" overall sound in your opinion. Sub-genre doesn`t really matter...just metal.

I hope I made any sense

I think the new Dream Theater album is an example of a great metal mix that isn't sampled to shit, it sounds pretty natural, especially the drums.

 

[Vaggelis_Revolted]

Orphaned Land, great band and unique sound!
There are also so many other bands to check out, from Cynic to System of a down.

 

[Manicompression]

Converge records, the newest one Axe to Fall is really great sounding. Fantomas the Directors Cut, alot of avant weird stuff but there is a fair amount of them just jamming standard metal stuff and its done in a very unique way.

Download the self titled album by Australian band 'a secret death'

All of you.

Thank me later.

 

[Skinny Viking]

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at our new album:

Everything is natural; no amp sims, no drum sample replacement or layering... just good ol' fashioned recording and effects processing!

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Not necessarily all metal but here's some recent-ish stuff I think sounds awesome:

Mastodon - The Hunter
Kylesa - Spiral Shadow
Black Pyramid - I & II
Red Fang - Murder the Mountains
In Flames - A Sense of Purpose
Karma To Burn - Appalachian Incantation
Kvelertak - Kvelertak
Down - Over the Under
Karnivool - Sound Awake
Fair to Midland - Arrows & Anchors

And yeah, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster album fo' sho!

I have to agree with drew

His bands CD sounds amazing. I love it.

The last band I did I really like as well. Check out the song Love & Grace here:

No sample replacement other then a 50/50 snare mix just for some depth.

type dinqee at youtube and look up his/her channel. most of the stuff is rock/metal. if you don't like radio mixes, and this is just a generali, try something else. but if your looking for something to wrap to and want to discover unheard of bands don't look back!

Mayhem - Ordo Ad Chao

"Different" doesn't even begin to describe it...

 

[StayStrapped58]

A Plea For Purging's newest cd, i heard from here that most of it was non sampled/triggered.

 

[Kohugaly]

definitely Masters Hammer - Ritual (1991) ...its really unusual... Vocals are panned off center and drums and guitars are panned center I think... It's hard to tell because the album was super ultra underground when it was released, so the sound quality is maybe not the best...

 

[slayercannibalsuffohead]

Hate Eternal - I Monarch
Suffocation - Self titled
Cannibal Corpse - Kill
Slayer - South of Heaven
Exodus - Exhibit B
Obituary - World Demise
Iron Maiden - Killers
Motorhead - Orgasmatron
Damaged - Do Not Spit
Death - Symbolic
Fear Factory - Obselete
Face Down - Minefield
AC-DC - Back in Black
Cryptopsy - None so Vile

Hows the low end on "Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster" I can't really tell. It sounds awesome right now (playing on low volume) cant turn it up at the moment.

[SocialNumb]

Damn Drew, loving your bands stuff. Best part about it is there isn't a mouth breathing angry guy screaming.

thumbs up!

Oh, that's just the Waves Oneknob Flubby and 'orribilator I slapped on the mastering chain.

Cheers bro!

Yeah... balls to cookie monster/cutter vocals. We like a bit of texture and dynamics. Originally we were an all instrumental band, and the preconditions for getting a vocalist were that he would be considered another instrument. Not a frontman, and not a screaming ballbag. Think we succeeded on the not screaming bit anyways.

Ah sweeets man! Maybe you can send me a preset for that, and we can use it on every single album we produce until 2033!!
