Hey why does old Art D think BOC is metal? Sure they inspired some metal acts but the music while great is not metal it hard rock. So you say [BOC partly redeemed this genre]I asume you mean metal not hard rock. Metal gets no respect though it deserves much. So many audiophiles listen to 60-70s rock, little girl with piano or whatever the press praises at the moment. To me over looking metal and its huge contribution to modern music just shows a narrow musical mind set. Sure we all have likes and dislikes but metal never gets anything but slamed by the audio press.
Reader Dismord is curious about your reading and spending habits: How much, over the years, have you spent on audioporn magazines?
There hasn't been much talk about this. T Bone Burnett produced John Mellencamp's new album. It is worth checking out because of a high definition recording process Burnett calls "Code" which is on the included DVD. This is the first release using what looks like a real improvement and the antithesis of overly compressed CD, MP-3 etc. etc. No one seems to be excited about this, but the DVD sounded damn' good on the home theater. Listen first, even if you don't like Mellencamp (I am usually lukewarm) and then let's discuss.
So i recently got my first TT and the felt mat is came with is highsided on one end. So I need to find a new mat, but am not sure what material is best, and all that. So if you have any personal favorites let me know. Its for a Pro-ject Debut 3 fwiw. Thanks in advance guys!
