Kick Drum EQ: Metallica Black Album
Monday, April 21st, 2008
Today I got the Black Album out again after a long long break from listening to it, I mean it must be literally years since I have turned up the office monitors whilst listening to this!
The album was a complete departure (production wise) from anything Metallica had done previously, more than likely as a result of teaming up with the talents of Bob Rock.
The reason I am telling you about this delight is that the album is a fine example of Kick Drum EQ. Sure it is an acquired taste and you’d never catch a “jazzer” using such extreme processing as this, but nonetheless if you are seeking some influence for the baddest kick drum eq of all time(?), check it out.
In addition what would you add to the list of bad ass kick drum eq?
