I fell in love with the Black album, Load, Re-Load, and Garage Inc. as a kid… regardless of the flak some of those records may have caught (which is just flat out unwarranted). It wasn’t until I started writing, recording, and mixing my own music that I realized I actually was in love with those records - SONICALLY; I came to the realization that I was more a fan of Bob Rock than I was of Metallica. He’s simply a genius. Thanks Bob, you’ve been a huge influence on me!!!!
Load and Reload deserve all the flak they get and more. But it isn't Bob Rock's fault. It's Metallica that suddenly decided that they should be a hard rock/boogie/emo/country band instead of a metal band.
@@roaringviking5693 singing about wizards and demons and shit gets pretty lame when you're no longer an edgy 14 year old. Besides, Metallica is the kind of band that has ALWAYS wanted to challenge their own status quo. They get the respect they do because they don't make the same record twice.
Bob Rock is responsible for some of the greatest sounding albums of all time. The massive, tight bottom end and clarity that he gets is simply amazing.
Great interview, thankyou! I remember as a 16 year old kid hearing the black album for the first time in the back of a friends car... the sonics caught my attention... I didnt know what it was at the time but the sound of that album set a new standard!
Good afternoon Gents, I just bought my very 1st Boss pedal the other day. It's a Boss RC5 Looper pedal & I love it. Thanks for all of your time & help learning about various pedals.
This is fantastic! Thanks Andrew, Bob, and pureMix! Would be really cool to see Randy Staub on here with Andrew, there are like no interviews with him about his engineering/mixing anywhere!
I too, studied under engineer Dave Slagter at the time in Vancouver as well. It was a great time for all of us in that era, and we owe Bob a big thanks for raising the bar a few levels.
Thank you Bob for all your honest advice and your contributions. You are a great man and we all look forward to watching the 2nd part and all you have to teach us. Thank you Andrew for being such a great host allowing your guest to open up! This, to all of us who are dedicated to learn how sound works, is our "control room" our "behind the glass", because realistically speaking, even if we could be in the studio every day, still there would be no Bob or Andrew there unless someone knew all this treasure they hold. And that's exactly what you do here, you share some of the treasure and now we have to make great records with our own means and continue the legacy! With gratitude.
Fantastic interview. Please ask Bob about his work with The Tragically Hip in part 2! Specifically how the Depression Suite on We Are The Same took shape in the studio, working with Gord Downie, or about the extensive string arrangements throughout the album. Thanks!
Great to see the Series back and what a place to restart.. the videos with Bob Clearmountain and Steve Lillywhite must stand out as favourites but an awesome series of real insight.
Thank you very much for this interview! I grew up with Bob's albums, they sound incredible. IMO Motley Crue - Motley Crue has the best f***ing drum sound ever. Looking forward to part 2, could it perhaps get a bit more technical/specific in terms of mixing?
How the hell did he get that first chord drop on ‘Sad but true’ to land like that? Seriously frickin fuckn frickin fuckn awesome massive fuck balls shizzle
Black Album, Dr Feel Good. Best Bob works. The new Motley was a lil too compressed but I’m sure that wasn’t Bobs fault. Fantastic interview can’t wait for PT. 2!
Can you do a deep dive with Bob into the making of Slippery, New Jersey and Keep the Faith. This is missing info from Bob that a lot of people are looking for.
Ok PureMix imagine this... Bob Rock interviews Mutt Lange. Even if you could get Mutt to agree to just an audio only interview it would be nuts. Everyone realizes Mutt is a recluse and doesn't give interviews but if he'd ever agree to one Bob would be worthy of the other side of the chat having been through all of the same things through those decades. I know Mutt owes us nothing (but perhaps he does a little?) but his story needs out there before he's gone. Make it happen! I'll start holding my breath.........now.
1:29:10 The Thing That Should Not Be (out of MoP) is tuned to D 6 years before Bob Rock met them, Metallica knew they could downtune already. You don't get credit for that Bob :P
Hi there; we will decide of date soon! all questions need to be addressed there when we go live www.puremix.net/live/andrew-talks-to-awesome-people.html keep your eyes peeled and make sure to subscribe so you will be in the know - cheers!
The comments about Metallica never tuning down before Sad But True aren’t quite correct. The Thing That Should Not be is tuned down to C. Sorry being pedantic. This is a really great interview!
@@GR-hl4gk It’s D but it’s A435hz as the record came out. Not sure if that’s a deliberate tuning decision or a result of tape speeds during production. But that’s the tuning if you want to play along
Hey Andrew. In regards to the question about who Metallica had producing the Black Album before Bob...I think Mike Clink was asked to produce it based on his work on "Appetite For Destruction". Lars loved the sound of that record and they hired Mike and did a few sessions with him and weren't happy with the results so they hit up Bob to mix then produce. Think I heard an interview with Mike Clink about this. Great show!!
Next time more insight into working with Bon Jovi, Crue or Blue Murder... Metallica stories are old and well known already all over the internet. And by the way, Metallica sucks. On the other side, Bob Rock rocks indeed :)
please teach the kid asking the kid asking the questions to enunciate or get someone else. I can understand Bob, and Andrew fine and then the kid comes in and it's WTF did he say??
He clearly had enough in the last quarter, it was painful to watch lol Don't forget he's an elderly man, not the man we've all seen countless times in Somekind of monster.

TY - Andrew T and Mr Bob Rock!!!!!for an awsome in depth interview - I F@#king loved it!!!!
Great interview, thankyou! I remember as a 16 year old kid hearing the black album for the first time in the back of a friends car... the sonics caught my attention... I didnt know what it was at the time but the sound of that album set a new standard!
perfect timing. was hunting for bob rock on UA-cam last night.
Great!! Next chapter please talk about The Cult and “Sonic Temple”.
Good afternoon Gents, I just bought my very 1st Boss pedal the other day. It's a Boss RC5 Looper pedal & I love it. Thanks for all of your time & help learning about various pedals.

Thanks for this!! An awesome interview with a humble legend 🤘
Great stuff, guys. Thanks!

Cant wait for part II. let's talk about Slippery When Wet!
Awesome, Bob is just simply one of the best producers ever in rock!

Bob Rock is just such a great guy and amazing at what he does!!
And so sane...
So good! Thnx for this🤌🏻
Love the interview. Thank you Andrew, Bob, Fab and the team.

great interview andrew !
So so awesome, missed the livestream but glad it’s up here!

Great to see the Series back and what a place to restart.. the videos with Bob Clearmountain and Steve Lillywhite must stand out as favourites but an awesome series of real insight.

Wow, that buss compressor info drop for Hetfield was a great reveal.
Fantastic! Thank you so much for this! 🙏
Bob Rock!
Bob is the man! Thank you for the upload
Awesome!
Bob Rock is the greatest producer that’s ever lived
No one else comes close when it comes to rock music
Such a treat! Thank you for doing this.
Amazing! Thank you very much! 💙
Thank you for the kind words 💙💙💙💙
Thank you very much for this interview! I grew up with Bob's albums, they sound incredible. IMO Motley Crue - Motley Crue has the best f***ing drum sound ever. Looking forward to part 2, could it perhaps get a bit more technical/specific in terms of mixing?
More Bon Jovi on the second part, please!
Is the next one booked as yet? Really looking forward to it. Can u ask him about his guitar frequencies?
Actually, .. And Justice For All peaked at number 6 on the Billboard charts which is huge for a metal band.
Andrew is so right. Best school ever in Winnipeg grade 4
Please get Bob Back in for Part 2 Andrew. There’s so much more to the story
How the hell did he get that first chord drop on ‘Sad but true’ to land like that? Seriously frickin fuckn frickin fuckn awesome massive fuck balls shizzle
Black Album, Dr Feel Good. Best Bob works. The new Motley was a lil too compressed but I’m sure that wasn’t Bobs fault. Fantastic interview can’t wait for PT. 2!
Awesome Brandon, make sure to subscribe so you will be in the know when Part 2 is scheduled!
If you have to smoke to enjoy the listening, do it when the final mix is complete!!!
What happened to part 2?
Can you do a deep dive with Bob into the making of Slippery, New Jersey and Keep the Faith. This is missing info from Bob that a lot of people are looking for.
Electric boys drummer is Niclas Sigevall, outstanding drummer 💪
Great interview
1:29:03 The Thing That Should Not Be on Master of Puppets is tuned to D. So it wasn’t something they hadn’t done before
Part 2 never happened?
Ok PureMix imagine this... Bob Rock interviews Mutt Lange.
Even if you could get Mutt to agree to just an audio only interview it would be nuts.
Everyone realizes Mutt is a recluse and doesn't give interviews but if he'd ever agree to one Bob would be worthy of the other side of the chat having been through all of the same things through those decades. I know Mutt owes us nothing (but perhaps he does a little?) but his story needs out there before he's gone. Make it happen! I'll start holding my breath.........now.
I must say, I was a bit puzzled by the mix of the last Offspring album, which I think he did.
Question for Bob. What’s your favourite guitar Eq and what frequency points do you favour?
1:29:10 The Thing That Should Not Be (out of MoP) is tuned to D 6 years before Bob Rock met them, Metallica knew they could downtune already. You don't get credit for that Bob :P
When is part two and how do I submit a question? It’s a 30 year old question you’d make my whole year
Hi there; we will decide of date soon! all questions need to be addressed there when we go live www.puremix.net/live/andrew-talks-to-awesome-people.html keep your eyes peeled and make sure to subscribe so you will be in the know - cheers!
scheps interviewing serban…. It would be crazy…
1:23:00
I hear shaker in SBT!!!
The comments about Metallica never tuning down before Sad But True aren’t quite correct. The Thing That Should Not be is tuned down to C.
Sorry being pedantic. This is a really great interview!
To D
@@GR-hl4gk It’s D but it’s A435hz as the record came out. Not sure if that’s a deliberate tuning decision or a result of tape speeds during production. But that’s the tuning if you want to play along
1:39

Think I heard an interview with Mike Clink about this. Great show!!
That was ...And Justice for All
If Bob Rock was never meant to exist, then why did he appear in this 2004 Metallica documentary film "Some Kind Of Monster"?
Next time more insight into working with Bon Jovi, Crue or Blue Murder... Metallica stories are old and well known already all over the internet. And by the way, Metallica sucks. On the other side, Bob Rock rocks indeed :)
2 people are incorrect
Metallica dropped to D in The Things That Should Not Be... long before sad but true..:
He keeps saying that he introduced Metallica to de-tuning, but they did it on The Thing That Should Not Be from Puppets.
And KILL BON JOVI!!
please teach the kid asking the kid asking the questions to enunciate or get someone else. I can understand Bob, and Andrew fine and then the kid comes in and it's WTF did he say??
Just to be clear. «The thing that should not be» is in C# or C standard. They downtuned even lower 5 years before hehe.
It’s in D at A435hz
He clearly had enough in the last quarter, it was painful to watch lol Don't forget he's an elderly man, not the man we've all seen countless times in Somekind of monster.
