Is deathcore becoming overproduced?
Let me first stress that I am not hating at all, just wanted to see what you guys think.
Is deathcore becoming overproduced? I have been noticing it for a long time that bands have been focusing on production a lot more and that a lot of times for example breakdowns weren't built on guitar riffs per se but weird high pitched noises.
I just listened to Distant's new track and I couldn't make out a coherent riff for half the song. It just feels like band are focusing too much on just building a massive wall of sound instead of focusing on songwriting. Am I alone in thinking this? I find myself gravitating more towards older releases where the production is simpler and songwriting is more focused on the instruments.
