I wonder what it's about
Modern metal production is awful,and the need to be heavy more than anything else is really dullI spent a couple of hours going through all the new releases in the Metal and Hard Rock sections of AppleMusic the other night. Came out with a list of 4 bands that were sort of ok. Miserable, Injector, Terror and Darkness (not The Darkness).
Things I learnt.
- Most albums start with a 1.5 minute atmosphere piece.
- Most of it uses drum machine
- Death/Grind/Black Metal is still massive.
- Vocalists either guttural growling or that puking up style
- in the Hard Rock section that yee haw twang is still popular
Aye, noone is doing anything bar 5150 (or variant) Oversized Mesa cab with Celestion speakers and Sm58.Modern metal production is awful,and the need to be heavy more than anything else is really dull
I'd say the best stuff in nearly any music genre of isn't on AppleMusic ?I spent a couple of hours going through all the new releases in the Metal and Hard Rock sections of AppleMusic the other night.

I can not fucking abide modern metal production. And the amount of it I hear by accident on the internet is super annoying. Its all the same old boring shitModern metal production is awful,and the need to be heavy more than anything else is really dull
I do remember a good few people in the late 80s saying how Justice For All ruined metal production for a few years. Everything ended up sounding really tinny and songs went on for way too long.Most metal production is just too polished now. Everything can be perfected with Pro tools & modern recording technology, sound replacement, all sorts going on. But I'm sure people were saying the same thing about the records done in morrisound in the late 80s.
