i agree with this very much but I should add that I think that well-produced CDs can have tons of raw power and emotion and I believe that technical music (if it's not just masturbatory), also can be very raw and powerful.

If a band/artist makes a well-produced, technical CD because that's just what they're writing and it's real to them, then the good production and technicality shouldnt mean automatically that the whole work is forced or false.

Example of an extremely powerful CD with alot of heart that happens to be really well produced: DEATH - The Sound of Perseverance

Example of a really technical CD with alot of raw power: CRYPTOPSY - None So Vile

I dont really have anything more to comment on the production issue, but in terms of forced technicality, I think a good deal of bands in the emerging tech-grind genre put lots of crazy riffs together and dont write real songs.


yes, I agree with this statement. I fully agree that well-produced techinical albums can be just as good as anything else. My point is though, I feel many of snobs who refuse to listen to most elite black metal and shit soley cause it's underproduced are just as bad the people they're bashing.
I'm not taking sides, whining or promoting, I'm just trying to have a dillegent analytical discussion about this shit.
If each genre has their own sects of Elitists, it would be only natural for each sect to have seperate goals/motives. Is it safe to assume that generally speaking, when a band conforms to high class production, are they doing so in hope for profit more than valor???? I want to see what other people think.
