Here's one of the first recordings I did, using the one Josephson C700s direct into the Zoom F8n It was a test just to see if this would sound good, the whole one mic thing.
Also filmed using 3 Zoom cameras.

Yes. You will get hundreds of Black Sabbath and Candlemass rip offs if you search for doom metal. You will get thousands of Metallica rip offs if you search for thrash metal. Death metal and black metal are more popular so there's more to rip off but they of course rip off just as bad as the rethrash bands. Off topic. But if a quick walk through the halls of any rehearsal space in Austin is an indication, death metal bands have got to be the best rehearsed genre of any music. I swear 75% of rooms are hard-core technical metal bands. But weirdly there's like no venues for that type of music around here. I've noticed similar about metal bands rehearsing. As for metal venues around here, Austin seems to like to keep its metal underground, for the most part, The Sword being the exception. Windsor Park, where I live, has apparently had a history of underground metal shows at various houses in the neighborhood. There's one house I drive by, in particular, that regularly is hosting metal shows. Also, not that it's metal, but the drummer from Butthole Surfers lives in my neighborhood. I've always enjoyed that piece of info about my neighborhood. That guy even won yard of the month a few years back.

. That guy even won yard of the month a few years back. That's the most Austin-y thing I've heard in a while. The backyard party / show / free Tito's scene was where was at when I moved here 20 yrs ago. People had whiffle ball stadiums, elaborate tiki hut compounds, kegerators and stages and movie screens and you name it. Plus Tito's marketing strategy was to give away vodka hoping people would eventually ask for Tito's in bars. It worked. We all drank a lot of vodka. Every musician I knew had a case of Tito's available at all times.

One of my favourite current bands is Lankum, ostensibly a folk group. Listening to their productions however is a similar experience to listening to the BJ Burton produced Low records. What they don't do is supplement their group with other players/instruments and their live sound is remarkably similar to the records.

It's also really cool and eccentric, looks like an awesome band to see live.
