Really? There are plenty of deathcore records that don't sound all that great production wise
It's not any different to other genres, some stuff has crap production, some sounds fantastic.
The Born of Osiris stuff has always had pretty bad production.
Their first album sounded boxy and incredibly "fake", and the second album has virtually no bottom end what so ever.
I've only got one Veil of Maya album, "All Things Set Aside" and the production on that is pretty bad too.
I feel like I've heard this before. It may just be me though.
Seriously though, it's totally fine with me that people enjoy this stuff. I just don't understand it. I'm not even opposed to breakdowns thrown in songs (when done tastefully). One or two is fine, but I find it hard to get excited about more of the same.
One question though, does anyone know why they moved to sevenstrings? I'm not saying they need to use everyone one of the strings the entire song, but I can't understand when bands like Emmure and Carnifex move to 7, but still only seemingly utilize 3 or 4 of them.
I guess it is a good thing that 7 string players are getting more attention, I'm just afraid that it's starting to stereotype the instrument, similar to what happened with the whole nu-metal thing.
2 possible reasons:
1- The "oh yeah I got seven strings!!!!" factor
2- Needing to play low notes but not having enough scale length on a six string guitar
So yeah, valid reasons I guess but I prefer the approach of Nevermore/ATB, more strings = more notes.
But in a lot of cases, the sevenstrings they are using still have a 25.5" scale length, and you can buy baritone scale 6's.
Whatever they prefer I guess![]()
Let me finish this for you

Go ahead Josh.. Keep bashing Carnifex.![]()
Apparently Victory Records isn't a major label anymore, this thread proved that.....they got one more album with victory.......then its major label time for them
I don't understand how anyone over 17 years old can like Emmure.
