the recording process of their upcoming new album.
ANATA drummer CONNY PETTERSSON gives the final update regarding the
recording of the drums in his studio diary:
"This was the final recording day. We started by changing the snare head and
Jens tuned all the drums into perfection as every other day. I had two
tracks left to do. I started with Greed conquers all; the first track
written for this album. It's a fast killer track and also one of my
favourites. It has a small part sometime after its first guitar solo, where
the drums and guitars go a little crazy. We did several takes for this part
and both Fredrik and I thought it sounded as it should. Jens still wanted me
to play more and more and Fredrik said: "I think Conny have done 5 or 6
perfect takes now in a row, I can't hear what is wrong." But Jens is not
satisfied with everything only being in time; he also wants the drums to
sound right in a way we couldn't understand. Fredrik went nervous and walked
out of the control room. And I struggled some more and suddenly Jens was
happy. We have always believed that we were the worst perfectionists
possible, and people would tell us; "No one will hear the difference
anyway." But now it was the other way around."
