i feel ya dog



but yeah i don't know that the fact that it's not the most polished thing they've done means they didn't use any less money on the production

Idk dawg, I think I'm gonna put it up to choices made within the studio but maybe an interview will clear it up in the future.

It doesn't cost an arm and a leg to get good production these days, but whatever the reason behind it, it works.

There's a difference between amateur, teeny studio cheap ass production and big time professional expensive raw production. One is necessity and the other is intentional. Wouldn't be the first time a band wanted to make a followup a bit rawer than the one before.

Yeah I mean if converge released a polished and overproduced record people would flip shit. people here bash tech death bands for having clean production. You think converge uses shitty and cheap production?

the production is fine to me. even the heaviest moments on Wolf King, which I adore, are kind of tame with how clean and smooth they are. i was not expecting this album to hit this hard

I mean, Converge has had some great production on AWLWLB and Axe to Fall, while maintaining the grit they've always had.



Here it just seems like the mixing didn't turn out too well, whether intentional or accidental. I can understand gritty, raw production values, but here some songs just sound muddy -- with some lyrics being incomprehensible completely. I guess the switch wouldn't be so jarring if Haste the Day had already used production similar to this on previous albums, but here it definitely feels misplaced sometimes.

I'm definitely liking this more. Still think that the 4.2 avg is excessive. Still, this is much better than the new Veil of Maya.

yeah they’re not really even comparable, they sound completely different. Matriarch is where tens of thousands of dollars of overblown production kills an album
