I disagree... Both my parents are musicians. I've been ping-ponging cassettes and 4-tracking "with Radio Shack mics"(lol) for as long as I can remember. A bad recording can't hide a good song idea... or a good vocal!

80s punk was never known for great recording quality wink

That's exactly what I said. I played in some good bands, good being relative to a bunch of kids.

But the recordings were so bad. Wed record every rehearsal. Original and covers, once played back it was like WTF that's us?

My basement had to be the worst, no carpet, sinks and hot water heaters, bikes..

We knew nothing about sound.

First time we ever went to a studio, we each coughed up 20 bucks and went and did three songs. We thought the engineer was God
