Amazing albums with garbage tone

[Psychobolia.com]

I dig the sound of Tooth and Nail, don't get the hate for the tone/production, it's sharp and has bite.

Stay Hungry, on the other hand, does sound weak, i can see why the band re-recorded it (Still Hungry), though I didn't bother getting the remake.

Bands re-record stuff they did with Werman thinking it is going to come out better, and it magically never does...as if he brought something that the band itself does not have.

[Van Ailin']

Motley Crue - Shout At The Devil

Dokken - Tooth & Nail

I enjoyed songs on both of them but both didn't sound quite right to me, especially in rhythm guitar tone. George made up for it on T&N in that his lead tone was so good.

Also, Krokus - Change of Address, which just sounded soft and padded on all the edges. It's odd since they found a tone that really suited them with Tom Allom on "Headhunter." And then they never went back to that.

Werman hater alert

And I definitely blame Tom Werman. He may have been a good pop producer, but he completely neutered heavy metal bands.

Cheap Trick hated Tom Werman's production on their album "In Color" that they re-recored the entire album with Steve Albini.

[Sleek]

Yup. They sure did.

Part of the issue with Tooth and Nail is that the overall sound is just really low. It is one of the weakest sounding metal releases I own.

Steve Albini could be the most overrated individual in music industry history.
