That bury your dead - cover your tracks guitar sound

[Let it burn...]

How do you get it?

This is like the holy grail for an aggressive hardcore guitar sound imo. What amps do they use or does anybody know more about the way it's recorded?

Quotes from Jason Suecof and his asst. engineer Mark Lewis:

“Slim [guitar] tuned down to A, so Mark upped
his string gauge to .70! It sounded brutal but
still needed the 6505. Once again the tone was
crystal clear. Bury Your Dead does open three-
chord stuff, and I think the 6505 works especially
well on anything with that machine gun-style
riffing. I don’t think there’s anything that breaks
through the crunch better. I think it’s the heaviest
tone we’ve ever gotten as far as bands that have
a more chuggy/dancy/punch sort of feel to them.
We’re doing their next album, and you can bet
we’re gonna use that again.”
“The sounds of that record have brought us a lot
of clients. I wanted a bit more saturation, and the
6505 has that thicker, more saturated midrange
that fills out the holes [other amps] leave. Another
thing that makes us very fond of that amp is the
way that it takes EQ in mixing. We’ve had some
amps sound absolutely crushing in the live room,
and then we mic them and they flat-out don’t cut
it. Some amps don’t take to being EQ’d well and
start to sound plastic and processed. The 6505
really allows us to shape what we hear in our
heads.”

They were referring to "Beauty and the Breakdown", if "Cover Your Tracks" is the next album Jason spoke of, there you go. I'm sorry that I am not familiar with Bury Your Dead but I remember reading this interview a couple days ago and thought it might help.

I think "cover your tracks" is the album BEFORE "the beauty and the breakdown".

I think Axeman commented on it once before, but I don't think he was working with Jason at the time that album was made.... What I do know is that it was 5150's into Jason's Neve console....

+1

I saw some live vids of them just after they've left the studio and they were using framus cobra's through framus dragon cabs live.

^ they've used a variety of amps, though, so it could be hard to say...I'm almost positive I've read that the album before "beauty and the breakdown" was 5150's.

I've seen BYD in ads for Kranks and more recently they are listed as Madison endorsers, so who knows!

 

[Metaltastic]

Hahahaha, EVERYONE has been in an ad for Krank, it would seem

 

[nwright]

Too true!
