    Hopes of Metal,Solos,and Speed coming back strong...

    Grunge wasn't really a revolution to begin with, but was the next wave that rose when the other metal forms descended from popularity. STP, AIC, Sugartooth, Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and many other Sub-pop label bands were simply taking what Sabbath started with "Master of Reality" and...

    Who Destroyed Metal?

    Metal was never destroyed. The lame shit just rose to the top where the general public could see it, as always. The best stuff is underground where it belongs.

    Black Sabbath clearly Owned Metal

    True, but there was an underground tape trading network. Many diehard metal fans would get copies of copies of cassettes and distribute them to friends. While it wasn't as accessible, it was still a viable option for the most desparate of metal fans to get their fix. It was through a similar...

    Black Sabbath clearly Owned Metal

    Except Diamond Head and Motorhead, who they drew a large part of their influences from. Immerse yourself in these bands and then play "Kill 'Em All" and you'll understand that while Metallica kicked metal up a notch, they did not exist in a vaccuum. The New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM)...

    Favorite Recordings

    Led Zeppelin IV. In fact most of the Zeppelin catalog sounds timeless, which IMO comes down to two things: excellent songwriting and musicianship, and a significantly less processed approach than today's standards. Despite the audiophile's insistence that recording analog, as opposed to...

    Perfect Pitch

    I took the relative pitch course and can attest that it works and is probably more effective than any interval training or basic theory you would learn from a college course. It takes quite a bit of work, but you will have a much more refined ear and will be able to sing in pitch, write down...

    So.. has anyone tried this trick?

    For fake drums, I would never do this. One of the ways to remove some of the fakeness of programmed drums is to manipulate the velocities of all the pieces of the kit being used.

    the fender stratocaster is perfect.

    No, just a little farther up your ass than it already is. When I say your anal canal is expansive, I ain't jokin'!

    Don't know. Turnaround on these tunes is around six weeks, and I've got two out now. Looks like it will be a total of three or four on this "sampler" release. Even though you'll hear them through here, the listening room, and myspace, you'll definately get a cd of whatever I've finished.

    This is turning out really sweet! Its reminding me of Cathedral, only with decent vocals. :) How many tracks were recorded for drums? The reason I'm asking is that the hats and cymbals work great for this tune, but I think the kick and snare need to create more of an impact by coming out...

    If I agreed any more my head would be just above your colon.

    I can't take the test. I have a doctor's excuse.

    Several mixing questions

    As to 2.) I don't know who Raymond Scott is, but that's not good advice. If you mix at very low levels, you will not be able to hear bass frequencies and your natural tendency will be to turn up the bass in your mixes, and the overcompensation will make your mixes very bass heavy when you turn...

    Post your MySpace link

    Although I already posted my link, I figured I'd post it again because of a new song that I just finished. "The Next Song". :) http://www.myspace.com/catharcass

    Hidden......WIP......

    Cool tune. Interested in hearing the final outcome of this! Keep in mind I'm listening through crappy headphones, but I can't hear the bass very well and the vocals sound too loud. Also, look out for possible conflicts with the lower mids of the vocals and the guitars and bass when mixing, as...
