I'd agree. I hate it when a band changes production style drastically. They should keep to the same production for every album. It creates a more cohesive discog.
i disagree, it's cool when bands try something else and that's what they did here with the mix. I don't have a problem with the production.

I hate the production tbh. Doesn't even sound muddy in a good way.

i think the only song here I think the production suffers with is Into The Painted Grey, when I heard the bit just after the drum fill at the start I cringed thinking it was the leak when it wasn't
but the other tracks benefit from it imo

Yeah, Into the Painted Grey intro is really fucked up mixing

Album Rating: 4.5
i wouldn't exactly say fucked up mixing. they had the right idea in making it rawer and it could have worked incredibly well, but they took it too far in that direction as a response to the Ashes Against The Grain production.

In an interview with Exclaim! magazine, in regards to the production of Marrow of the Spirit, Jon Haughm states, “We wanted an album that sounded more alive and real … Our last album was a bit too mechanized, too polished, and that kind of disturbed us. So we brought back the older methods that we had utilized on our demos and first album to try and get back a more organic feeling.”

yeah, the Ashes production influenced them to go even further in that direction than what they otherwise would have done and I think perhaps the album suffered slightly from it
this album is still amazing though :]

What I just read: "We wanted our album to sound worse so people would think it sounds better."

This mix doesn't sound raw OR organic, just muddy and unbalanced, and too trebly at times. I know what they were going for with this, but it just didn't work IMO

Still think this is a great album for the most part, but I really wish they would've trimmed down Black Lake Nidstang and just cut out To Drown. Would've made it much better.

To Drown owns every other track.

The outro isnt great, but the rest of the song rules, especially the vocals
