I have been a fan of your work for many years now and in regards to your heavy metal projects, you always seem to consistently achieve an extremely punchy distorted guitar sound and overall things are very clean sounding and "snappy." For instance, take Nevermore's "Dreaming Neon Black," or all the projects that you worked on with them, the guitars are punchy as hell. Same with Exhumed (which is way detuned, tho, but that tone is killer!), Spiral Architect, which is really crisp, and same with some of the Novembers Doom stuff I have recently heard. Do you get this from the microphones you choose or do you compress the hell out of the guitars or what? Thanks!
