SBarry Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 There's a reason why (I am pretty sure) literally no band has ever recorded an LP with him and then gone to someone else. I think that says a lot. Didn't know that and just reinforces how good he is at what he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvv Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 Didn't know that and just reinforces how good he is at what he does. this makes sense since this is their 4th release with Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Hope I don't get fooled like I did the last two releases, be a toy and ceiling fan are the only songs I enjoy from each of their respective releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runforcover Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Didn't know that and just reinforces how good he is at what he does. I don't know about smaller bands, but at least none of the higher profile bands, or bands on RFC have recorded an LP with someone else after Will. Circa Survive, Citizen, Title Fight, Pity Sex, Turnover, Daylight, Balance and Composure, Blacklisted, ... I am sure I am forgetting a lot, but on top of all of those bands working with him consistently, bands like Braid, Pianos Become the Teeth, Tigers Jaw, Man Overboard, Cold World, La Dispute, Whirr, Nothing, etc, who are in label situations where they can record with pretty much whoever they want, choose to go to Will. glass realms 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeepo Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Didn't know that and just reinforces how good he is at what he does. "Good" is a bit of a loaded term since people don't seem to like him, but rather bands like his work so they choose him over other producers. I have no issues with anything done by Will. Along with the strong dislike for his work, I don't understand how/why people say that all the albums he produces have the same sound.

runforcover Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Not liking his work isn't really something that exists outside of relatively nerdy websites where people talk about this stuff. It's the same for any producer. Most people don't care about the intricacies of how a record sounds, and are much more concerned with the overall feeling and songs. 90% of people who listen to these records mentioned probably don't know who Will is. I don't want to sound like I am defending Will because he doesn't need defending. I am more so speaking generally. For every 1 person who doesn't like the production of a record, there are 500 people who didn't question it who aren't talking about it online.

smeepo Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I didn't know that Will was asian until I saw him in a video a few months ago. I think I'm doing better than some/most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

museummouth Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Calling someone dumb for having an opinion, is dumb. And I have enjoyed some of his production work, such as Braid and Turnover but his work on TF's stuff just muds it up. Spring Songs sounded like shit due to his mixing and so did the new La Dispute LP. Everything sounds recorded through walls. But who gives it shit because if you don't agree with me then I guess I'm an idiot because that makes sense. Regardless I'll buy this anyway in hopes of a return to their more hardcore/punk roots.

Hobbes Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 If you actually visit titlefight.org they have a sound snippet. Whether it's from the album or just something random is anyone's guess but it sounds very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainaldous Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Yeah, I've been stalking the website. The video that's up now is different from what was there a bit ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O4Onyee Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 So stoked for this, can't wait for more details to come up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out of Breath Records Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 So stoked for this. Love most of their past releases. FG is great, I think some people's beef with it (if they even have any) is it features a lot less of Jamie's vocals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost_Parlour* Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Regardless I'll buy this anyway in hopes of a return to their more hardcore/punk roots. Why would they do this? It sounds like you don't like the direction they're going in and your using yip as a scapegoat. It's not like people are forced to be produced by him. carryonkid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinji Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I really hope that they delve deeper into territories they haven't yet. I really loved the sound they had on Be A Toy, wishing for more songs like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvv Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 Do you not like his vox? I just like him singing his mellower songs like Head and Be A Toy compared to his singing on faster songs on most of Shed and the previous EPs.
