I did the Bury Tomorrow record and there's no slate samples whatsoever in there, no POD, no Axe, I even mixed it on an aws 900+ and CJ mastered it.

I actually think it's the only song that sounds completely different from all the rest you posted (production wise) looool :p

I think this one sounded the best of the examples given. I'm not gonna bag on any of these song's production bc I realize something all you guys should stop to remember...
We engineers don't "make" the sound of a band. Yes we influence it to an extent, but in the end the band will sound like the band. We give them the sound they want, for better or worse. If all the bands want to be djentbags, then let them be. No one ever won against trying to turn a band into something it's not. It's not our choice. It is and always will be up the the band how they sound.

HAHAHAHA, It's almost HILARIOUS how I TOTALLY forgot I mastered this and also, wondered why I thought it sounded the best out of the bunch, hahaha... That was a really cool record to master. GREAT mixes man, just EXCELLENT.

ANd thanks guys for the compliments on my stuff!

I agree..... Just use Lasses' "LSD DRUMS" and my own "DEATH KICKS + SNRS" to make your life just a wee bit more interesting. =D
 
I personally don't use kick 10 on everything, and If I ever use it, it's blended in with some of my own samples.

Brave New World, Somewhere In Time, Piece Of Mind, Virtual XI, A Matter Of Life And Death, Killers, all very different sounding albums.

No doubt some of the 80's albums (Number Of The Beast through to Powerslave for example) sound similar-ish, but they did use the same producer exclusively for something like 13 years. But I'd still say there's a decent range of sounds in their back catalogue.

+ a bazillion gajillion. It's honestly like music fans right now WANT to know whats coming in a song before it's even started. Hundreds of bands that all look and sound EXACTLY the same and it honestly shows no sign of stopping.

Sub drops
Reverse snare before the
Breakdowns
pseudo-cathartic lyrics (you can't be just so "over" everything, can you?)
call-and-answer clean and harsh vocals
two-stepping
flat billed hats over bieber hair and gauges, probably in a tank-style jersey with something along the lines of "MY HANDS WILL CRUSH YOUR FUCKING FACE" and TOM'S shoes.
That stupid ABR headbang shit.
getting "low"
:hotjump:
"Sick"
"Brutal"
"hardcore"
"Swag"
Dumb technicolor artwork on a t-shirt with a band that has a phrase for a name.

HARDCORE DANCERS

It's mainstream now. It's the glam of the next millennium. Everyone wants to sound like their favorite bands because they want to be in their favorite bands, and the allure of being idolized and individual in a mass of cookie-cutter music is how they do it. It's popular music at it's finest.

ALL SHEEP. EVERY ONE OF THEM.

yeah I dug this one
 
Yeeeaaahhh... When the day comes that I can track bands myself, I'll be taking samples of everything before tracking, then blending in what I need. I'd rather not use somebody else's drums on my own albums if I can help it. but I realize a lot of the folks around here are mixers, and the tracking engineers didn't take the samples of the kit, or the kit was just so terrible sounding that it needed to be replaced.
 
I'm not a noob and I use kick 10. I just like the sound. Nothing wrong with having a taste in something
