Been following Buster since like 2017 because his work on Currents, Shadow Of Intent or Born Of Osiris really blew my mind. I saw him as the successor of Joey Sturgis who was the king from 2010 to 2014 and I felt that he kept the same vibe of low tuned snare, HARD hitting drums and "over"produced sound that I love so much. So happy to see him gain so much populariry this year, he deserves every shed of attention he is given, hard working dude

@somedudemark 9 ай бұрын
Ola is so on the nail with Buster being the modern guitarist/producer. He's so ahead of the pack right now and you can clearly hear his influence on the metal scene. Everyone is going for the heavy and massive low end that he managed to tame and everyone's chasing that sound in some shape or form. It's a shame HLB and Vildhjarta are still relatively niche but on the other hand Thrown being so massive is testament to the sound people want.

@f67739 9 ай бұрын
so everything can get joey sturgis-ified again? i'd argue for a return to more raw, stripped back production, and experimenting/innovating on getting cool sounds and tracks before it even gets printed into the DAW and every bit of life mangled out of it
@RocketToSleep 9 ай бұрын
@@f67739 I'm not really into Joey Sturgis. Buster is speaking from a sound design mindset vs whatever it is that Joey is trying to do. Also, depending on the music, it should be approached in different ways. Should HLB be produced like a 1-take studio session or an 8-track Tascam black metal mix? No. It's a much more grandiose idea, and Buster even speaks on that during the interview. There is a point at 1:13 in Blood Spilled on the new HLB album, when I first heard it, reminds me of the production techniques used in some NIN songs, where everything achieves this gritty, distorted texture. It's a soundscape that creates an energy within the track. It's this type of thinking that I appreciate and am really speaking on, just as Buster speaks of. Think of some great albums over time, not just metal, look at the mix engineers and producers and how they created bigger sounds or effected things to become more atmospheric. There's nothing wrong with producing an amazing, raw song/album. It's necessary for so many things. But, there's also lots to be explored and I can appreciate that there are people like Buster, willing to try taking things to a new level. Cheers!
@dilbophagginz 8 ай бұрын
@@f67739 It depends on the band/project, you can hear massive difference in how Vildjharta and HLB songs are produced. And going for a massive, larger-than-life sound just works for what HLB is going for.
