MACHINE HEAD - Tagebuch
Es gibt Neuigkeiten – von Machine Head Frontmann Mr. Robert Flynn höchstpersönlich in das MachineHead1.com Tagebuch eingetragen.
Yeah-YeahEEE!!!
And Dave McClain... is... done!!! The man is ON muthafuckin' FIRE!!!! He put down 6 out of 8 songs Friday, including two of the 10-minute bad boys... and then the last 2 Saturday... DANG!!! Yeah, yeah, par for the course for Mr. McClain, but still!!! First couple of days were spent getting the ultimate drum tones, trying out a multitude of different kits, heads, etc... Dave was ready to strangle Mr. Producer here *cough* at several points during the 2nd day, but he finally saw the light, and in the end we got the sickest drum tones EVER, he's really fuckin' stoked. Dave and I both feel strongly about having real drum tones on this record, and getting away from the overly triggered (and in a lot of cases completely triggered) drum sound that is so prevalent in metal today. Sure, you gotta have a little bit in there - a bit in the kick, blend some in with the snare, but man, real drums sound fucking awesome when you get 'em dialed in. Been listening to "South Of Heaven" a lot, and jesus... even by today's standards the drum tones sound just incredible... that's what we're going for... timeless shit.
Had a couple days of studio-technical difficulties after getting drum tones, but then the rocking commenced. At Dave's request, he wanted to try just him and I tracking stuff, which is how we demo everything anyways, and it worked great... he's killing it SO hard. Drum magazine editors take note... your new king is here, and his name is Dave McClain!!!
Gonna lay some scratch vocals today, and move on to getting the heaviest guitar tone known to man!
