Re: Post your band's recordings.

Do one-member computer geek bands count? :D See sig if they do.

If by "worked out," you mean our singer quitting music alltogether, then yeah. It worked out great. :)

Actually we're not breaking up. Finding a new singer is never fun, but our songwriting team is still intact so it's just a matter of plugging in a creative vocalist with a good ear and a good voice. We'll be back on track before '07. At least that's my mid-October estimate.

Thanks, btw.

The practice space thread over in the guitar forum got me thinking about this one: post your band's page and recordings.

My current band: www.myspace.com/westcoastdoom

And the last one: www.myspace.com/sideofbacon

It is sometimes tough to hear on computer speakers but if I am hearing right, I really like the sound you guys have. Especially on kit. I love a metal kit that has real kick drum sounds. You know, like an acoustic kick drum instead of the new metalica sounding click/kick which I always think sounds crappy. I like it like the old slayer stuff. Where drums sounded like drums, not samples.

Nice sounding stuff.

The problem is that in a dense metal mix, it's nearly impossible to get a kick that has any weight, power, consistency, or clarity to it, without samples.

triggers or "samples" can sound fine if theyre used well, i agree the clickcliclick **** is anoying, even really fast double kick should have some thud to it

Definitely - you need to layer in some dynamics with the samples, or at least take advantage of multiple samples and automation.

The faster a drummer plays, the less hard he hits, which results in a softer and quieter sound. While consistency is a must, you must also have some feel to things.

My favorite thing to do is sample the actual drummers kit, and use that for the sound replacing.
