CD / Album Production

Since there are soooooo many metalheads here, I was wondering, "What is the best Album production you have ever heard"

Kick Axe - Welcome To The Club always stands out in my mind. I like a lot of dynamics and a large, booming drum and bass sound. Eighties production ruled!

Darkthrone ~ Transylvanian Hunger........just kidding lol!

(although, I must admit, I do like the the lack of production on that album)

Seriously though, if I had to pick BEST production....I would have to go with the Boston self titled album. Tom Scholz refined a brilliant production on that album.

I think Ultimatum's "Into the Pit" has great production.
Anything Devin Townsend has put his hands own sounds great too IMO.

Agreed. Townsend is a MONSTER as far as production goes!

I love the sound of Learn by Deliverance...Stay of Execution has a great sound for me, as well.

Like someone else mentioned above, I am also a sucker for that 80's metal production sound.

A couple of examples pop to mind...

- Anything by the Elephante Bros. between 1987 and 1993

- Deliverance "Learn"

For me, the Elefantes got TOO slick, especially with The Brave's first album Battle Cries... That disc makes Def Leppard's Hysteria sound like a garage recording as far as slickness goes! LOL!

I have always thought that Tourniquet's Stop the Bleeding had fantastic production. Production gurus might scoff, but it's always sounded great to me.

I totally agree with the Pantera - Vulgar production.

Even Cowboys from Hell had some killer production.... I think Alice Cooper's Brutal Planet has some great production as well. So does Motley Crue's new one Saints Of Los Angeles. HUGE sound on that disc!

Pretty much everything Terry Date produced/co-produced had great production.

I'll also add METALLICA's Black album too. Sonically, it's awesome. The songs were flawed though in some cases IMHO though.

For Christian stuff, Tourniquet's Pathogenic... is the first thing that comes to mind.

Secular...I'll say Nevermore's Dead Heart in a Dead World and King's X- Dogman.
