just listening to keep it in the family,god thats one of my fave songs af all time and it just got better
I think the album is great too, but how could it not be when we finally get to replace Joey's vocals with John's on so many great songs.Jacowboy said:
I like the guitar sound on it a lot, but I think Charlie's drums are a bit too low in the mix, and also sound too "acoustic" (unamplified). Also, the production as a whole just sounds too much like a demo for my tastes, but whatever, i'm just glad they finally did this. I wanted them to do this 10 years ago when I saw John singing the old songs live.
Oh yeah, i'm still buying the CD. I only downloaded it for free because I was anxious to hear it. I believe in supporting a band if you like the music. I'm sure most, if not all, on this board who downloaded it will be buying it too.

Well, they are, but just live. In studio they just add pro-tools and stuff to tweak the sound which is what I suppose he meant. The thing is that this is a "live studio" production, which would be the same thing as St. Anger's DVD, so you'll notice a similarity in production for both (except for the drums, which is Ulrich's fault... his drum set sounds like tresh cans...).Deege said:

The drums sound really fat, just like any studio recording. The kick is really fat and punchy, the snare is snappy and sounds killer (not like a trash can) and the toms sound amazing...actually the toms sound better on this than they do on most of Anthrax's studio albums.
The only minor thing I've noticed, is with the mix...it seems like Rob's guitar is a shitload louder than Scott's on most songs. The solos bury the rythym sometimes.

Well, I'm not sure because I am not a sound engineer at all, but, of what little I know of recording process, this album did have post-recording production, which means that even though the set was recorded live, it was later "polished" in the studio. I assume the separate instruments were recorded on separate tracks, using different setting for each instrument. We know for a fact that Joey Vera worked on the vocals production.
When I say the album sound is "raw", as opposed to "full-studio produciong" I mean that the later usually involves some sound FX and neat gimmicks, like keyboard arrangements, special samples, echoes, weird distortions, etc... You'll notice when you hear most of these songs, that there are no sound FX on any of the instruments, no drum reverbs, no vocal echoes, no crazy laughs or anything aside the distortion provided by pedals... In that aspect, the album sounds "raw" and "live-ish" (because the band wanted these songs to sound as they do live in their current live shows...) even when in fact I suspect there was some heavy engineering at some point, specially on the vocal tracks.

I just listened to it in my car It fucking Rulez. N.F.L is slower in the intro...
My daughter seen in my post about the San Francisco show sez this ... It not Joey man......See she also met Joey when he played 2 dates here... so i ask her this if she met John would you still feel the same way? John split after the show... As any proud father would do.
