The Haunted: The Dead Eye

[Machinated]

Haha, it was joke about the triggers - Mnemic chose Tue over Andy because they said that Andy uses triggers. Id be very surprised if the drums on the dead eye weren't triggered.

 

[Massili]

hehe

i dont know why they spent time tuning the drums the way they did...


ah...mnemic woundn't be produced by FF guitarrist?

 

[ltratt]

According to the man himself the drums aren't triggered (and, by my reading, aren't quantised or anything else). For those of us who like a more organic production, this bodes well. I'm a bit bored of records where the stereo kicks make me feel like I'm in the Monty Python kipper slapping sketch.

 

[Massili]

if that's not triggered i must say thats fucking AWESOME!!!

 

[Descent]

maybe not 'triggered' but it could have all been sound replaced still!
or drum machine!
the dude is a good drummer but on 'the haunted made me do it' it didnt sound like he's a very hard hitter so i'd assume a lot of compression was used.

 

[Mark_Palangio]

I think the new song, The Medication, is awesome. Lots of groove, reminds me of their first album. I can't wait to hear the whole album!

 

[Mark_Palangio]

Did Fredrik Nordstrom produce this album too? The tone sounds great.

 

[KeithRT99]

tue madsen did it.

 

[Massili]

i can't stop listening to this new haunted album

it has one of the best guitar tone ive heard in a while, does anyone know how to get close to that sound? i know it's a 5150

ah the bass is incredible too, very tight!

 

[LydonB]

I have always thought that Anders had a good guitar tone...even with At The Gates. Production sounds great on this bad boy and the tunes are pretty good too. Currently, I really like The Flood. That may change as I listen to the album more though.

 

[JeffTD]

The kick definitely sounds replace - probably by his own kicked, but it's too consistent to be 100% natural, you know?

That said, I love the writing on this album, and the production is killer! Definitely a 'vibe' production, but those guitars still sound amazing in context!

Goddamn, the melody and flow of the songs is so good! They really matured a lot, this could be my favorite release from them yet, and I'm wearing a One Kill Wonder shirt.

 

[Massili]

they got something really big in this record.

 

[J the TyranT]

Just listened.

Its fucking amazing... dunno how anyone could shit on this disc... its just absolutely crushing...

and I STILL seriously want a Dolving-esque front man. He and Tim Williams in bloodsimple are just fuckin wicked.

+1 - Williams' vocals on Imprint with Vision Of Disorder were awesome.

i can't stand the tones on this album. the guitar tone makes me cringe. not a bad album otherwise.

The guitartone isn't fantastic but in the mix it suits perfect.
