Warning: inevitable betrayal coming up.

If he cuts out the bass tracks and my bandmates are fine with it I'll just leave the band. My patience has been tried enough and that would be the last straw.

 

[Episteme]

Has it happened before? If it's one thing I really hate, it's inaudible bass production.

 

[Eligos]

It happened with our live tracks.

A couple days ago, Kelly was talking about how she didn't want a bassy production and I made it clear that I didn't write 40% of the material just to have my bass lines buried. So she backed down. And the producer took a lot of time working out my bass tone and had me re-record certain parts for clarity and heaviness. My vocalist loves the stuff I write and was pretty vocal about wanting the bass to be present in the mix, and said that it adds a lot of drive to the music. So I'm pretty sure the bass will be audible.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Forgive me if I just haven't been paying attention, but depending on what sort of music you're playing isn't it possible to have a more or less non-bassy production with the bass guitar still being perfectly audible? Or is it a style that benefits more from an overall bass-heavy sound?

 

[Eligos]

My bass tone isn't very heavy on the low frequencies. So it's possible.

It's black metal with death metal influences and folk metal rhythms.

 

[Episteme]

It's happened to Darren, our bassist, before for our live tracks. But Gavin, our guitarist and engineer/producer, admits his mistake. He too, loves audible basslines in metal.

Nothing wrong with bassy production, I don't understand why your guitarist would want you buried in the mix. I guess it really depends on how you play your bass. What rig are you using for the recording?

Did Genocide Roach leave your band?

 

[Eligos]

What rig are you using for the recording?

Going direct in, reamping through my GK Goldline 500.

Nice rig. Well hopefully it works out. I'll be willing to hear the final product.

 

[Eligos]

Well we'll be done recording in like... April. So anticipate a summer release.

i just realized i didnt even utilize my awesome christmas av this year, thats how little i come on here anymore. very sad.

Post here more.I like your av.

Yeah it is possible to have audible bass in black metal that sounds decent. Listen to Behexen's "By the Blessing of Satan" for an example.

You're never going to get laid with her now.

 

[ThrasherStax]

[Eligos]

You're never going to get laid with her now.

Any slight desire I might have had to fuck Kelly has dissolved as of about a year ago when she got all high on her horse and shit.

Today I realized that I'm terrified of people with down syndrome.

 

[The Ozzman]

[damnromulans]

Today I realized that I'm terrified of people with down syndrome.

Why? They're a lot less scary than other retarded people

 

[Vimana]

The scariest of all retarded people are ones with cri du chat. Fucking scared the shit out of me in bio today.

 

[Tonka Time]

My town has a lot of half-way homes. It looks like fucking zombie land.
There are always people with mental conditions wandering around.

 

[damnromulans]

Cri du chat sounds terrifying, is that like high pitched uncontrollable wailing?
