>>65796826
My god, SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT.
Completely thin, untextured guitars and tin-can-ass drums; one of the few albums brought down from perfection by its production.
>>
I don't understand why you would start the thread in such a confrontational way. You're like, "Take my opinion as objective fact, you fucks!" stop

>does anyone else think that this was produced kinda badly? The drums sound like shit.
>did this age poorly?
>>
>>65796886
uhh the guitars on Teenage Riot and 'Cross the Breeze are fkn timeless
>>
>>65796842
Fuck you

The drums sound like wet paper farts
The guitars sound like that belong in a middle school back to school commercial
The vocals are just fucking awful and lackluster and so weak but not as weak as the guitars

I literally cry everytime I hear this album. The music is great but production just kills it for me every single time.
>>
>>65796886
what? the guitars in DN are awesome. kill yourself
>>
>>65796894
Everything on this board. If they tell you or not is simply an opinion. No one is trying to tell you anything as fact.
>>
The 80s-ish production is part of what I like about Daydream. It does sound of its time, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It still sounds great.

Yes, because distortion and noise definitely means horrible production.

Holy fuck neo-/mu/ can't possibly be this retarded.
>>
>>65796921
I don't understand, this album has aged far better than their SST releases bar maybe a few tracks on Sister..

The guitar sound on 'Cross the Breeze is absolutely perfect in every way.

>>65797000
It sounds like literally trash. I don't care if they were going for "noise rock with no wave influences".Their eariler albums would show a better example of that. It sounds so clean. So bad. So awful. So boring.
Also
>"noise" rock
How is this album noise rock? It sounds like an 80s Wendys commercial level of production

Going to post this b/c I can't think of another album where production ruins potential so bad.

>>65796921
You do realize that could be the remaster, right? They've done remasters on every one of their releases.

>>65797011
Why would we? It's pretty obvious they had zero fucking money when they made this.

its a shame that an album with such amazing instrumentation has such poor production

Man I am really not getting your references. Back to middle school guitars? Wendys commercials? You have a really odd and personal interpretation of sounds.

Daydream Nation evokes some really particular imagery and such for me too, but I enjoy the album.

First of all Daydream Nation is nowhere near badly produced. I mean it's no Pet Sounds or anything production wise but it's no slouch either. Great music with decent production that does its job.

Second I think Californication has by far the worst production on an otherwise good album.
>>
>>65797224
As I said before the music itself is good. They were working with some great ideas on this record but c'mon the Foo Fighters could rub off more noise and edge than this album.
>>

>>65797295
you are trying too hard

californication was made to be listened through shitty apple earbuds

rick rubin was ahead of his time

/mu/ is like a pack of wolves who only respond to totality and to conviction
If you pussyfoot your way around the issue no one will care because there are other people who aren't, so you have to be as confrontational as possible.
>>
music discussion board, not a try to be as provocative and bait responses board. This is a terrible place to discuss music. Even Reddit is better bc you might even learn something instead of seeing the same complaints about the same albums over and over again. idk I'm drunk rn.

I wouldn't really say this 'aged poorly' since their fist album is well-produced, but the production takes all the heaviness out of this imo.

Wouldn't the worst produced Black Sabbath album be this?


Speaking of which, Larks Tongue in Aspic isn't badly produced, but the live version here made me realize it's not exactly good either: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FNiK73zqm4
This performance sticks with me.

welcome to 4chan. if you have any questions let me know.

Reddit has far worse taste than /mu/, seriously it's noticeable. The only time /mu/ gets close to reddit-tier taste is when a major album by some meme rapper drops or death grips drops an album
>>
>>65797482
>i dont like hip hop and wen other people do its cause they're shit and they have shit taste

ok dude go find the jazz thread
>>
>>65797538
>he said I have shit taste because I like shitty memerap :(
>I'll just imply he likes jazz for some reason, that'll show him
>>
>>65797482
>_> what you're saying is that it isn't a good place to discuss music because of their taste. That mentality is my exact problem with this site. People will bring up whatever on Reddit and not get devoured in a feeding frenzy. The music discussed on /mu/ does suit me better than there, but that doesn't make /mu/ not the worst art based board on 4chan.
>>
>>65797620
I said it because I've noticed every snobby pretentious tripfag bitches about hiphop in the jazz threads. even if you don't like jazz, you're still a snobby pretentious tripfag

here's the second (you) that you're after. gimme attention look i have le identity on le 4chan it makes me different

Raw Power, obviously
>>
>>65800277
I'm not very knowledgeable on production but I don't find Raw Power to be produced terribly at all, care to explain?
>>
The production style on Daydream Nation helps set the tone for the whole album. It's a deliberate artistic statement. I think it works.
>>
everything from the late 70's
>>
>>65797299
but the production is actually damn near perfect on this album

The SY remasters are terrible and actually make you appreciate the originals more. They don't sound richer, just louder.

this is pretty much true, but it does get very boring if you're not a screaming manchild and actually have some degree of considered rationality to your opinions.

moderate threads are a sign of either the very new, or the tired and old.
