Stupid Questions
Stupid Questions
Couple of questions only a female would ask because I'm not musically-inclined in the slightest.
Anyone who listens to Thorns knows they have a really distinct guitar sound - what is that exactly? Don't say guitar.
I've never heard another band sound quite like it.
In Neurosis' "A Sun That Never Sets", what's that whistling, for lack of a better way to describe, sound at the beginning?
I'm just curious.

he plugs a couple of pre-amps straight into the soundboard. solid state pre-amps. so instead having having a microphone pointing at a speaker cabinet, he basically plugs his guitar into a distortion pedal, and plugs that into the recording device.

and the sound from that neurosis sound is just a sample played through a synth. i'm not sure where the original sound came from.

I was also wondering what exactly grind is. What's the difference between death and deathgrind, musically? I know er, Anal Cunt and Cephalic Carnage (off the top of my head here) are considered grind but musically I don't know what sets them apart from other death metal bands, apart from the obvious, of course.
But yeah, what makes a band deathgrind and not just death?

Death usually has longer songs, 3-5 minutes. Grind usually has 1-3 minute songs.FBS wrote:I was also wondering what exactly grind is. What's the difference between death and deathgrind, musically?

time has nothing to do with if it being grindcore or not, but normally grind is way shorter.aeon wrote:Death usually has longer songs, 3-5 minutes.

another example of a DI sound is all of the bass and guitar tones you hear on type o records.FBS wrote:Thank you scornmuffin.
So, do any other bands do that? I love how it sounds, you'd think more would do it, even if only for a couple of songs.

Grind is more punk influenced, normally far less pretentious, and generally goes for a raw feel on album whereas death metal is (usually) significantly more technical, quite often very pretentious/obsessed with image, and usually has a clearer production on album.

When I hear rebel extravaganza, I'm inclined to think that Satyr was heavily influenced by the cold, mechanistic feel of Thorns. The guitar tones may not be exactly the same, but to my ears the detahched feel is there, especially with the vocals.FBS wrote:what?Dominate wrote:didn't rebel extravaganza essentially rip off Thorns' tone?
polarity, not duality
Funny you mention that, because Snorre was a sound engineer on that album.Dominate wrote:When I hear rebel extravaganza, I'm inclined to think that Satyr was heavily influenced by the cold, mechanistic feel of Thorns.

As for the vocals sounding similar, Satyr did the vocals on "Thorns" and it was released on Satyr's label.

he also plays on 'a moment of clarity.' i think he contributed some other riffs as well. however, it's also true that satyr took a lot of inspiration from snorre/thorns at that point in time, which ultimately culminated in them working together.
