What am absolute treat. My whole channel right now is dedicated to walking back modern rock and metal production techniques so hearing the live in the room aspect of Pinkerton further convinced me thelis era of the DAW snapped to a grid, drum replacement and individual takes is why rock and metal is dying in popularity.
Snapped To Grid kills everything musical.
Owen! What’s up brotha?
I could listen to an hour of this
tuning giant sounding room mics with a harmonizer from the 80s is baller as hell. barresi is a fucking legend
it's amazing how you can get away with stuff like that when it goes by so fast and it's just a little tweak.
I basically use that philosophy in general on vocals. I will never tune an entire vocal, but if I just want to push up a couple phrases, I see that as fair game.
I loved Pinkerton from day one, and just couldn’t understand all the criticism…a shame all of the love came so late. Definitely one of the best albums of the 90’s!
I had barely heard of Weezer. I knew Buddy Holly and that was about it. To me, they were just that funny joke band with the catchy as hell song with the Happy Days video.
Then my brother brought home an album and was like "you gotta hear this song. It's so good!"
That song was Pink Triangle. It was absolutely unlike anything I had ever heard before. I must have listened to Pinkerton only on repeat for like 6 months after that.
Pinkerton is one of my all-time favorite albums. I wish it had more commercial and critical success. Rivers was so upset by the response that he went in a completely different direction. I imagine an alternate universe where he kept going down the path of more raw, emotional, "indie" music. They could have ended up as my favorite band instead of a band I like two albums by. Yes, I know I'm that cliche "only the first two Weezer albums are good" guy.
Didn't Jack Joseph Puig also work on the album? JJP has worked on so many of my favorite records. I hope you can get him on the show too.
Weezer made two masterpieces. Then a couple of ok records. And a bunch of crap sprinkled with a few moments of their former greatness.
JJP mixed it I believe. I sure wouldn't mind picking his brain about mixing that record.
@@ToneSherpa yeah, JJP also "co-produced" it with Weezer. There are some good interviews where you can listen to him talk about it. Rivers very much wanted to make an "indie rock" record. It sounds a little sloppy, but that's intentional.
Not a Weezer fan, but great interview!
Totally on limb here: I think either needed or both needed to intervene with Van Halen and make something with them...missed chance. I hate new sound makers "saving" bands but this one is a no a brainer...also using my no brain shoulda done Led Zep at some point in early 2000s
they never topped Pinkerton. it's a really special album.
Wow, who would have known you punished a $9k M49 tube mic with a $50 booster pedal to get that sound. Lol. Maddening.
I always suspected they must have had some sort of weird room mic situation or maybe they used the talk back mic. There's just so much character and room in that drum sound.
