MartianSpaghettiRider Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Everyone can bury their imperfections in playing under a lot of shimmering effects and distortion (me included), but it takes a real ma-, erm, musician to make an instrument like acoustic guitar sound really good and interesting.

MartianSpaghettiRider Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 They're in the studio with Rich Costey! (Instagram) It's probably going to be a heavy song, then. But, strangely, the thought doesn't get me hyped as I'd like to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wipu Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I hope it isn't just a halloween song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) I hope it isn't just a halloween song. NKOK was a decent amount better than Dig Down tbf. If they’ve gone to the effort of working with a producer though then I doubt it’s Halloween related tbh. Imagine they’d just slap something like that together themselves. NKOK was also a lot more covert than ‘hey guys back in the studio’ iirc as well. Edited October 11, 2017 by Jobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maneachicken Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Despite the criticism he has had on here, both Absolution and Black Holes manifested under the steer of Rich Costey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 They work with him a lot tbf, it's almost to be expected at this point. He's been at least somewhat involved in every record since they met him, other than TR tmk. Despite the criticism he has had on here, both Absolution and Black Holes manifested under the steer of Rich Costey. BH&R's in my top 3 records of all time but Rich was by far the worst element of both those records imo, from the outside looking in at least. His mixing's at least kicked on since though, with T2L and Drones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kueller Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Producer's role is more than just mixing the album. He would have surely been some influence into aspects that makes the albums loved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forevermusic Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Is the expectation that this is going towards the eventual LP8 or is this likely to just be more an individual track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Well based on what they’ve said so far, everything they’re recording is eventually gonna end up on an album. Including Dig Down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) Are we assuming those other two songs recorded along with Dig Down are scrapped at this point? Could just being held back for the eventual album I guess. Shame they don't just release them if so though, so we have a steady stream of singles as opposed to what could be nigh on a year between. Producer's role is more than just mixing the album. He would have surely been some influence into aspects that makes the albums loved. I would go as far as to say that it doesn't even have to involve mixing at all. But I don't think that's what Jobby is saying, if that's who you're talking to. Yeah, I only mentioned his mixing for T2L and Drones 'cos that's all he's credited for on those records I think. Might've been a bit harsh on him for Abso actually, Howie Weinberg (mastering) might be more to blame for those albums' sound problems. Reading up about him and he seems to be a bit infamous for bad compression jobs, though I do think the mix sounds pretty flat anyway. Rich did still drop the ball with Black Holes though imo.

We seem to kind of place responsibility on the producer to the amount that it's convenient to an argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vaguely remember them saying that about Dead Star and In Your World too. Maybe they'll realize they're over it when the album comes together.Yeah I honestly didn't even think they would release another standalone single before recording the next album. This whole single thing was doomed to fail because it meant the band would have to stick to a plan for over a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
