Aloha Metallica fans. Sometimes their songs kick in when playing general hard rock playlists.
I have a specific question though. Is it just me or that “Black Album” was mixed/mastered too bright, even when listened through a HD600/6XX for instance? I find this album impossible to be listened in my Beyers cans (DT 770 PRO 250ohm). No EQ used.
I just discovered the album “It’s Only Us,” by Monophonics (recommended by the excellent record store, Rough Trade). It’s great, classic soul - but brand new! The album is consistently good and works as well for dedicated listening as it does in the background, if you’re doing light work that doesn’t demand much concentration.
Asked what they’d been playing at my local coffee shop (Zumbar - best Americano in the country in my opinion) just before the closings started, it was Bambara radio on Spotify - opens up a whole world of dark indie music - bambara, iceage (not the metal band ice age!) etc. Worth checking out.
