Death Metal Producer pioneer SCOTT BURNS of the once infamous Morrisound Studios joins Reaper and Thomas INTO THE DARKNESS..
In this Episode Scott opens up about the early days and what it was like to work with now seminal bands such as Deicide, Napalm Death, Sepultura, Obituary, Cynic, the list goes on. He also breaks down some techniques used back then that eventually altered Death Metal / Metal production forever. We discuss Euronymous and Deathlike Silence's disdain for the 'Morrisound sound' and the entrance of the Black Metal revolution. Nothing is off the table here and it was a true honor to talk to such a true innovator and supporter of the music we hold dear.. Enjoy!
