Post your fave Reference CDs...

[Sinister Mephisto]

Man, that LOA album sounds really great! Especially the drums and vox.

Are you sure about the Deftones first record? The one right after that (Around The Fur) sounds IMMENSELY bigger and better than that one. It has better songs, too which usually means better mixes (I'm sure that you know that already). I think that Around The Fur may be the best sounding hard rock/metal record ever made. White Pony sounds really huge, too. Terry Date fucking rules!!!

You're confused. Their first CD was called Adrenaline and sounded meh. He's talking about their latest CD which is Self-titled and sounds amazing.

 

[Gnash]

AC/DC- Back In Black
Chimaira- Impossibilty of Reason
Stuck Mojo- Declaration Of A Headhunter (All of em, but this one is slick)
Fear Factory-Demanufacture
Prong-Cleansing
Pantera- Vulgar
This is starting to turn into a favorite album list, I gotta quit

Just A few with the sound I strive for.

 

[Ermz]

Nightrage - Sweet Vengeance
Testament - The Gathering
Meshuggah - Chaosphere
Nile - Annihilation of the Wicked

 

[JeffTD]

Ghost Reveries and Deliverance by Opeth
Dismantling Devotion by Daylight Dies - the guitar tone is fucking perfect, and the kick is insane.

Easy mistake to make. You might check out the selftitled just for how it sounds. I think it's a pretty cool production regardless of what you think of the songs.

Daylight Dies just owns ass period - I can't believe how damn consistent Jesse is on the drums, and Egan is *right* in the goddamn pocket, every time.
