I know! You never really hear this level of acoustic precision in metal snares these days. I mean, they're out there, but the popular thing at the moment is the one-dimensional "thud" snares that are compressed and sampled to shit.
This can be Clearmountine sample, something like this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1351134/3.1A SN H.wav mixed with some real snare or something

When did you start listening to metal? Last week?That was the 90's man, that was considered the shit!
Hes just a very opinionated fart knocker .....lol
Ya back in the early 90s man you didnt have many choices of bands still playing metal. Megadeth and Metallica got lighter, all the bands from the mid 80s were not being played any more, so we needed something to grasp on to. On the east coast it was definitely bands like BioHazard, the cross over Metal / Hardcore bands were HUGE then.
I was in a band very similar and left in the mid 90s cause I wanted to thrash out but there was no market for it. Totally fucking sucked. Thankfully in the late 90s bands like Nevermore came along and pushed the genre back to the forefront, and now we are in a big Thrash revival.
One of my faves from the same time period:

guitarguru777: fuckin ay man! someone playing hugely to my 90's sentiments! I fuckin loved the 90's for metal, even though I was just a school kid, it just spoke to me so much more than today's saturated scenes!
I totally didn't know that about type-o and biohazard havin the same production set up but I'm starting to hear similarities now you mention it!
That snare sounds incredible, I can't find those samples anywhere though, only discussions about them on forums? What am I doing wrong? ¯\(°_o)/¯ HOW DO INTERNET?!

Since we're on the subject of 90's production, I've always loved the shit out of the way this album sounds
A Devin Townsend production I believe?

There were plennnty of heavier bands than Biohazard in the 90's... sorry, it's just really gay shit. White dudes pseudo-rapping tough-guy style over weak music, the video is a joke, spinning around in circles and spitting? C'mon... Sorry to say but Biohazard is just not "heavy." Like at all. Anyway, the point of the thread isn't if you like them or not just that Mattayus likes the snare sound so... apologies and carry on.

I agree that BH was huge but they certainly haven't aged well and it's silly to ignore that we had Pantera, MH, Sep, COC and a bunch of other far better metal bands at the time (not even mentioning the amazing stuff coming from Sweden at the time).
As far as the dude who thinks Emure is better, all I can say is that at best they're a parallel-- a very timely band with lots of hype but not much to offer. Both are (were) highly visible gateways to better music IMHO.

Damn - I miss the 90's... I still have my Bioohazard shirt from the Urban Discipline tour in 93. And River Runs Red was my life at one point... looooooooooove that CD.

Yeah being heavy or not is irrelevant, IMO. This is a mostly metal forum so I suppose I shouldn't be surprised people don't like Biohazard. I just didn't expect someone would call them gay and shit.
