lmao the pink album will make you shit your pants

...

...

...

everything by these guys sounds terrible
especially their last record

this and pretty much every metal album from that era. guitar tones were so shit back then.

...

Everything Husker Du ever did

Tyler the Creato - Cherry Bomb

Something about this album just doesn't sound right to me. I really want to like it but the guitar sound and vocals don't go together well for some reason.

Also this

Brad Wood is known for being kinda lo-fi-sh

i can see it perceived as bad mixing but it adds to the rawness for me

>ruined

nah. i wish just got back from discomfort was mixed better tho

this
even though i still love the fuck out of this record if it was mixed better it would be the dream pop equivalent of loveless

Not a GREAT album but notable for its unusually bad cover art and ear gratingly terrible production

I can't hear the vocals for shit only on the quiet parts can I

it could have been their best but every sound hits so flat like they compressed the living hell out of it

...

the guitar/drum mixing on this album is absolutey fucking absurd. Blackended is a strong case

the production ruins this album

...

i know you guys won't agree, but it's true.

is this loss

this is the first that comes to mind, but I really hate how much black metal is mixed in a way that totally washes out the drums

...

as soon as i started looking into how and why they mixed it the way they did i was actually fucking disgusted with them

I agree, but it's not true.

anyway, this

Yeezus is even worse.

Hannett definitely ruined what the band technically actually was and what they wanted but it became something more.

...

dimebag inspired and ruined a generation with his gain 11 mid -1

are you guys srs. I could see thinking Unwound mixes their vocals too low but that works for their sound as far as I'm concerned. Daydream Nation on the other hand, I can't see how you would improve it.

An actually objective one. Seen them live twice though and it sounded great.

came to the thread to post this

I think the production fits the mood of the album. It's more raw and not as mature as EndSerenading.

>virgins will deny this

I love this album and the production and songwriting are incredible on it but the mixing at points is almost amateurish, it's especially weird considering the quality of the instrumentations. It's like how there was that super noticeable 1-2 second shot that was clearly filmed with a GoPro in the 2nd Hobbit movie. Like, you have a budget of $250 million dollars but you don't realize going from 4k to 720p and back to 4k on a massive screen will break the audiences immersion?

It's mostly on the guitar parts that are only in certain parts of a song, like when either the pre-chorus or the chorus starts in New Generation it's always like they hit play on the lead guitar track a quarter of a second out of time and it's really fucking jarring once you notice it
