Aluminum is real chad metal tbh - Soft and reflective, gentle friend - Conducts heat and electricity easily - Insane strength to weight ration - It only improves properties when it gets colder, steels just break - Absorbs a lot impact energy and protects us in cars - Forms oxide firm on it, no need for other corrosion protection - Easy to recycle, wants to save earth Real chad metal.

no, I'm sure they are impressive but again like most playthrough videos you see, there is a lot of post-production editing and cleaning up that's done. Unless they make it explicit that it's a raw, live performance.

ofc you mix the band live but not mastering. Some bands use more tricks and tools live than others. I will always prefer the bands that value musicianship and playing things live over mimicking a studio performance with backing tracks.

Unfortunately never heard them live, there would be a concert with BMTH, ADTR, Lorna Shore in a month, but they delayed it because of covid, so I wont hear them any soon:(. With whom did they sound bad? CJ or Will Ramos? Will sounds pretty good imo, especially considering that this is deathcore, and most of the time you cant understand a single word in a deathcore track, but in his case it's different: youtu.be/VO3NSHk3wl0 also on their live performances his vocals are pretty good imo, but ofcourse it would be the best to listen to them on a live gig to decide it.

2022-01-18 15:28

1 reply

what I mean is that they suffer the same flaws as other contemporary "studio perfect" metal (usually tech death/deathcore) bands. There whole "sound" on the album is a result of quantizing, sample replacing the drums, fixing every imperfection and making it literally a perfect performance. It's impossible to recreate that live without the whole band sounding sterile, weak and lacking dynamics. They don't have that massive, clear wall of sound with live instruments like Cannibal Corpse for example, or Devin Townsend, Opeth, or even some tech death like Origin.
