It's true that it's more clear and distinct, but did you notice how the power and intensity has been toned down as well? For this reason I still prefer the original.
 
I'm a long-time Nokturnal Mortum fan (something like 14 years), so this album is nowhere near my favorite by them.

is it best to just start from the beginning including the 2 demos

Twilightfall	Demo	1995	6 (87%)
Black Clouds over Slavonic Lands	Demo	1995
Lunar Poetry	Demo	1996	7 (86%)

I agree with you that the ideal mix would be somewhere between the original and this one. I think this album might be tied with Lunar Poetry for me. Goat Horns and Weltanschauung after that.

That dr sucks ball

 

[Music Alchemist]

Speaking of dynamic range...when you're recording and producing music, how do you ensure you get the maximum?
 
What is the maximum as far as metal is concerned?
 
(I have a lot of experience performing and composing music, but I know very little of the studio side of things.)

Metalcore has always had an almost EMO stigma attached to it in this thread. In some ways that makes this whole thread epic cool. Though in some ways it is very sad.
 
 
I was more into the sub-genre 11 years ago, and still have a loved collection of CDs from the time. Still I only find one Metalcore release per year I like nowadays? That simple fact may be a loss but o-well, you can't listen to it all.

Be sure to hear the tracks I shared in my recent long metalcore post. They're an example of the more extreme side of metalcore.

  Sure, I was just joking about the metal thing lol. There's great stuff in the genre.
I know what you mean about not thinking of it in terms of rock. The vast number of contemporary metal sub-genres alone should propel it into its own unique genre.
 
I guess some of the stuff which was called 'metal' back in the day (Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath etc) are relatively 'tame' in comparison to today's metal and hence have been assimilated into the 'classic rock' genre.
Having said that, I defy anyone to listen to Iron Maiden's "Hallowed Be Thy Name" and not be seriously impressed. Terrific and inventive guitar work, tight band, powerful and gifted vocalist.
Sounds almost like classical music in terms of its composition!

 
Moving our conversation here!
 
Here are two cool Iron Maiden covers, by Cradle Of Filth and Disarmonia Mundi.

Saw the post, know the bands, you have been posting the same bands over and over, as we all do. Much of the time nothing new to see in the posts.

True. When it comes to metalcore, I do have a small selection of bands I prefer. Just wasn't sure if you knew 'em.
