This version of Mutt just sounds like a demo to me, I guess that's why I thought it was. it's the old whatever-you-heard-first i suppose. mutt was the only mutt for like a year and a half, so the enema mutt is just the over-reverb-compressed-slick-production-jerry-finn-palm-grease'd enema version.

You're right about the over-reverb-compressedness of Enema. I'd love to hear that album opened up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to hear that album opened up. hear hear! enema has a better mix / mastering for sure. the mix / master on dude ranch is terrible. but i think you take what i mean about the finn approach (it's all in the miking and compression gating, especially on the drums). i mean look what trombino did with JEW's futures. fucking awesome. sure, produced for radio. but still a big room, an organic sound!

radioactive tomdog Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 i'd be interested to hear a tom lord alge mixed dude ranch. i doubt i'd prefer it over the original but he mixed the radio versions of dammit and josie and they sound really good.

I think Finn was a fantastic producer but he had a sort of aesthetic soundwise that never sat well with me. Too polished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI scott's final (officially released) live recordings with the group were the KROQ acoustic xmas show, december 1997. Thanks for confirming this! I my self will usually track with one guitar for rhythms and another for “leads” so I figured the same could’ve gone for Tom, but also, he seems to be very forward thinking and into whatever he’s using at the time. Seeing that this was before they were working with Jerry Finn and all his gear, Tom May have been favoring the LP (and more so, the duncan invader). Either way, the recordings sound good.
