This was a great run through, good find.  Love these sorts of breakdowns of mixes when they are done well.

the reverse intro to blackened might be my favourite 30 seconds of music. It just changes my bodies chemistry.  :laugh:

I don't know how Dawn Of Possession can be considered to have questionable production.

It's sounds savage, the quintessential Death Metal sound.

Yeah there's such a dark otherworldly feel to it that's unlike anything else

100% agree.
There are some albums that have a poor production that add to the charm and help capture a time and place, One Voice by Agnostic Front.
It's trying way too hard to sound like a metal album but I'm so used to it I couldn't imagine it any other way.

Dawn Of Possession though. There has to be bands that would kill to get that exact sound.

Metallica's AJFA sounds just fine to me. OG vinyl copy, guitars have the beef, you know the bass is there. Even Newsted is baffled by all the hate, there is an interview with him saying (paraphrasing) "it sounds exactly the way it was supposed to when it came out and made an impact on the world".

Yep, fecking hell, it's up there with Diabolical Conquest and Severed Survival as one of my favourite-sounding DM albums.

Dawn of possession is perfect.


Amorphis-Tales

Thinny production , but it works.

Ah yeah, the production on Tales is fine.

It's the music is the problem  :laugh:

When the best track is a crappy Doors cover, you know it's a bad album.

Nuclear Assault: Game Over

The songs definitely outshine the production (which is terrible).

The guitar sound is a but weird alright but it's my favourite thrash album so couldn't find fault with it.
