Musicians you'd love to do a record with

MichaelZodiac · September 07, 2011, 07:18:35 AM

Michael Gira is a dick. fact.

Not really musicians but producers:
Billy Anderson
Steve Albini
Jack Endino
Sanford Parker

Each has their own sound and personally I think every band (I mean this literally, every band around the world) could benefit from an Albini production but that's just me. The new Toxic Holocaust record isn't done by Endino and it shows though the record is a move forward musically. I like how Sanford Parker thinks along with a band and comes up with some cool stuff, I know the dudes from Cough& Nachtmystium are really excited about working with him in general.

Even if true it wouldn't diminish my interest in working with him. My interest in him is purely artistic. A lot of my favorite records were probably made by assholes that weren't the nicest folks and that's fine with me if that's not what I'm after from them.

Instant Dan · September 07, 2011, 12:09:17 PM

Yeah, I am not going to be friends with the guy, I am just going to work with him. Don't forget a lot of great albums have happened when members were fighting with each other heavily.

Guitars(vocalists): Bassists:
Scott Kelly Reeder
Pepper Keenan Bogart
Wino Mike Dean
Iommi Jack Bruce
Victor Griffin Dixie
Josh Homme Lemmy

I've also dreamt of making a song with Bjork (Icelandic singer, not Brant)..

Danny G · September 08, 2011, 10:34:17 PM

Wouldn't mind doing an album with Ben from Brought Low. Hey Ben, whatca up to this weekend? \m/,

my son

Hemisaurus · September 14, 2011, 04:48:03 PM

I think Max Calavera has you beat, didn't he put ultrasounds of his unborn son on one of his albums

grimniggzy · September 22, 2011, 03:59:37 PM

Would like to chill, smoke & record with Brant Bjork
I've been listening to Jalamanta a lot lately.
I guess deep down I wish summer would start again already.

Metal and Beer · September 22, 2011, 06:58:59 PM

Dude, Brant Bjork is an excellent choice. He can play all insts. well but more importantly he "understands"...he's got the right heart/soul/feeling/mojo..

I suppose I could drop Endino, I don't know of anything he's done that is on my must have list, but he seemed like a nice guy

jack endino helped me with my physics homework when i was in high school. dude answers every email, to a fault.

Jacks a great guy. So nice and incredibly smart. He's recorded some of my absolute favorite albums... such as TAD's Gods Balls.
He operates out of a small studio here in seattle and keeps it accessible to local bands which is a great great thing. He's a pillar of this community and just a sweet guy.

Hemisaurus · September 22, 2011, 08:43:36 PM

See just everything I see him in, or read about him, he seems like such a nice guy. You should check out his website on Mexican Fender Amp Clones, it's pretty funny.

bbottom · September 23, 2011, 02:18:26 AM

John Fogerty.... from like 1969

Volume · September 23, 2011, 04:36:00 AM

Brant Bjork or Jean Paul Gaster or maybe even Dave Grohl would be cool on drums.
maybe Al Cisneros on bass or someone more straight forward, some 8th notes guy.
Josh Homme would be interesting on guitar and Nicke Andersson too.
Rick Rubin and me would produce it.

Troof. And dude's always been that way.

I'd love to do a record with Lanegan, and Danny from Tool would be a fun sort to spend some studio time with....and the Wright bros, and alan sparhawk, and..... too many other fuckers

Chovie D · September 23, 2011, 02:43:03 PM

I first met Jack n the late 80's when he was touring with Skin Yard and they stayed at my house in Madison Wisconsin. He was super nice back then as well and amazed me with his vast knowledge of all things musical.

Ive never actually tracked with him, tho he's mixed and mastered some albums Ive played on. Id love to track wiht him some day and i know i will have that pleasure and honor at some point. He was playing drums in my friends band not long ago but I think they called it quits.

I met albini once, he wasnt a dick to me ...but then we didnt speak at all. i was with my friends in Killdozer in chicago when oe of their amps blew during soundcheck, we hussled over to albinis and borrowed one before the gig
