well the production was by no means "good" but i really liked it. it works well with the rest of the music.

Yes, there are better bands, but I personally think that Tsjuder is good. I quite enjoy them.

im not talking about production quality, i'm talking about the over-distortion and how high it is in the mix, it would sound a lot better if the vocals were toned down.

Invicta_Veritas 10-01-2007 01:40 PM

Uh, Matt, good production isn't really a defining trait of black metal :lol: .

the2stranger 10-01-2007 01:42 PM

But even bad production needs to be good.
Bad-bad production is really bad.
Yay for logic, but you know what I mean. :p

i am the robots 10-01-2007 01:43 PM

I know this, but the way those vocals were recorded still kills the quality of the music.

Invicta_Veritas 10-01-2007 01:43 PM

Yea, but Mappy tends to be over-analytic of production.....something you can't really do with bm....


Matt: Okay, I'll take your word for it if you insist....

Tyler 10-01-2007 01:45 PM

He's more concerned with the leveling than the production. Reading helps you realize this,

the2stranger 10-01-2007 01:47 PM

You can be very analytic as long as you can still enjoy the music.
If you put your analysis before the feeling a song or album invokes, then you're wrong imo.
But analysis isn't bad.

Oh well, each to his own.

@Cocaine: This statement refers to production/engineering. Leveling would be more of a mixing thing.

But whatever, I don't want to argue about it.

i am the robots 10-01-2007 01:48 PM

I just feel that oversaturated vocals take a lot away from any feel.

Well then I fail at terminology, I did sort of mean the leveling oh well.

Oh okay, I get you.


I think saturated vocals really work for some bands....but I understand where you're coming from.

:'panzerfaust:

Invicta_Veritas 10-01-2007 01:52 PM

I don't like some of the material on Panzerfaust.

i am the robots 10-01-2007 01:52 PM

Saturation does work in some cases, take the ambient interlude in [I]Thus From My Lips, By Yours, My Sin Is Purged[/I] by As Cities Burn for example, however when the vocals come out sounding like some sort of a laser or siren because of distortion, I think it gets to be a bit much.

Invicta_Veritas 10-01-2007 01:54 PM

Yea, true.

However, not to be a dick (because we are both All Shall Perish fans), some of his screams sound like that sometimes....

Especially on The Price of Existance.

the2stranger 10-01-2007 01:55 PM

[QUOTE=Behemoth_Rules_All;15359621]I don't like some of the material on Panzerfaust.[/QUOTE]

mainly the vocals for me.
Although it has it's charm, I think it'd be better if they were drowned into the production like Burzum - Filosofem or Darkspace - Darkspace I

Invicta_Veritas 10-01-2007 01:56 PM

That's what kills a lot of Darkthrone's work for me.....

Eddie does tend to over-layer his vocals at certain parts, but for the most part he's one of the most creative extreme metal vocalist at the moment.

[quote]Especially on The Price of Existance.[/QUOTE]

[I]Hate. Malice. Revenge.[/I] was with a different singer. He was fat and like 6'5", watching their old videos is fun.

1) I most definitely agree.

2) I only listened to a few off thier first one a long time ago, so I actually did not know this.....that's funny.

i am the robots 10-01-2007 02:59 PM

HMR is real good, I think it's funny how they found a better singer who with the same voice, so to speak.

FatalEnergy 10-01-2007 03:48 PM

Wow, I never thought I'd see bitching about production in this thread.

LifeInABox 10-01-2007 03:49 PM

Why we chattin' ASP itt?

Nostalgia 10-01-2007 04:44 PM

Paysage D'Hiver ****ing blows. I downloaded his semi-new album last night and it was terrible.

Angmar 10-01-2007 04:46 PM

What, how dare you Austin >:|

I have not heard that one but the S/T and a couple others and they rule.

Nostalgia 10-01-2007 04:48 PM

I just couldn't listen to it. I should be mixed with a lot of harsh vocaled sections like Vinterriket, who is far superior to Paysage.

Stormrider 10-01-2007 04:52 PM

Vinterriket are boring. I could never get through the album I had in one listening. It seemed to be something I'd like. Ah well.

I haven't heard the new Paysage D'Hiver, but what I did hear was good. Haven't listened in ages though.

Vastness 10-01-2007 04:53 PM

i like paysage

austin are you talking about einsamkeit
