Haha And i also reported that he sang too late in one of the videos, for some reason a few people didn't believe me, even though you can clearly hear him sing ' Too late ' I'm on fire reporting stuff.

Cyro Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 LOL that was random. lol, that was AWESOME! But yeah, 'Walking in Circles' seems to be an early favorite. It'll be interesting to see how everyone else reacts once this horribly overproduced, yet great album hits the shelves (or leaks... lol...)

It just seems like the style calls for it, the way CBI, Fire and My Suffering turned out, I'd only assume the other tracks will have the same "feel" to them. The same "overproduced feel" Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/2448-some-new-dbs-details/page/3/#findComment-37554 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GigaScythe Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Question: Out of Ashes... better than Minutes To Midnight? from what im reading my answer is yes but someone like Alex Mcmillian should give me his opinion. It's difficult to compare them - honestly, MTM is more pop/rock; OOA is pure rock. It's a lot more grungey and rough around the edges (even with everyone saying it's "overproduced" - honestly that's a matter of opinion. I think it's just OOA's style). Chester goes all out with his vocals - you want extreme highs, lows, pure screams, soft singing - it's all there. My favorite songs on there are definitely Inside Of Me and Walking In Circles - hearing the studio version of the latter was just mind-blowing. The lyrics are so powerful. "Everyone's shut off their minds... so I'll turn on mine."

"Everyone's shut off their minds... so I'll turn on mine." I'll reserve judgement until after I've heard the whole album, but describing what I've heard so far as "grungy" and "rough around the edges" could not be farther from the truth. The three songs I've heard so far have tons of keyboards and other electronic effects, the vocals are very far from natural most of the time, and the guitar, while distorted is about as clean as you can get. The tracks are very polished and the production reminds me far more of HT and Meteora than it does MTM. Given Up and No More Sorrow alone are both rougher than any studio track I have yet to hear from DBS...

I'm not meaning rough-around-the-edges as in production-wise, just the style of music. I mean "rough" as in "rocky". When I heard the album every song sounded as perfectly produced as it could be. There are a ton of electronic elements as you mention, and these only serve to enhance the sound laid down by the drums and guitars; icing on the cake if you will.

Chester's best description of this music was when he called it 80's pop/electro pop. That's really what it is, at least from what music has been released already. I can't wait to hear it. You guys that did are very lucky. Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/2448-some-new-dbs-details/page/3/#findComment-37581 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geki Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 That has NOTHING to do with ANYTHING. Everyone keeps saying ''Oh yeah, Howard Benson did a horrible job at producing'' or ''Chester didn't write good lyrics'' or ''It's not heavy enough'' and other comments like that. So I'd like to see those people produce an album, or write lyrics or make music better than what DBS has made with OOA. People should act mature. I could hate DBS and I wouldn't say that it sucks or Chester did a bad job just because I didn't like the music.

Of course Chester is one of the best singers of all time and has immense talent, so yes the band is better than the average band out there. When you start comparing it to lp though, it just doesn't stack up to some people which I think you should be okay with because this is just a side project.

BeardyWilderness Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 My opinion. The word "overproduced" is non-existant. There is no such thing. Heavily produced, maybe. As GigaScythe said, it's a matter of opinion whether you think it is too produced for you. But if you're going to let something like that block out your enjoyment for the album, then that's your problem. I'm not going to say anyone is wrong, but people here are basing this off 3 songs you've heard... and they're not even THAT heavily produced. For a rock album, maybe, but in comparison of things you hear on the radio or all these new Kerrang! bands with members who probably don't even know what gender they are themselves, it's fine. If it's a toleration thing, then well maybe you will learn to live with it. I mean, that little old-school-hip-hop squeek sample played during Petrified used to annoy me, but you live with these things.
