    Cattle Decapitation is the best extreme metal band I've ever heard. Everything they do is insanely technical and the talent is off the charts. Travis's voice is unmatched and the drums are some of the best in the world.

      I think the drum sound could do with a bit more low end TBH as It sounds like an angry typewriter most of the time. The playing is phenomenal, but the tone lacks weight.

    The writing, performance, and sound of this album are out of this world. The breakdown in Death Atlas at 2:30 took me by surprise and was so brutal it almost made me laugh (I mean that in the best way possible). Everything about it blows my mind. You guys really knocked it out of the park. Congrats!

    The album sounds amazeballs. Made my top album of year and made it into my list of top 20 metal albums of all time. Cool studio and video man. It's been a long time since I've been in a modern recording studio since I don't play in bands anymore and I'm only a home studio solo guy now. Pretty cool to see what producers and engineers are working with these days. Keep on rockin' dude!

    Man awesome! For those of us that are drummers please think about offering a way for us to hear or purchase just the isolated recorded drum tracks themselves. Would love to hear it. I’d buy that along with the album. It would be epic and I dint know of anyone who’s offered that yet. You could do that for guitarists too who would like to hear just that instrument. Anyway you get where I’m going with this, just a suggestion! Cheers and can’t wait to hear it!

    • @DaveOteroTube

Thanks for the response & im amazed at your knowledge on all your gear etc. they’re obviously in the right hands. Cheers

    Do you still pan out your cascade room mics when they are stacked on top of one another like that?
    For someone who's about to get into recording live drums for death metal/slam type stuff would you still recommend a set of room mics? I'm getting the 7 piece Shure mic kit soon but ill have to get a set of room mics (or maybe just 1 and use a mono room) on top of that eventually.
    Edit:
    Nevermind just saw that the mics are angled in an XY type pattern. My bad XD

      That can be a trade off on big kits like this. I'll keep phase in mind while positioning mics and move them a bit if necessary, then also use auto align after tracking to restore as much phase coherencey as possible.
