His production and Rise’s professional packaging made me think as a kid that these bands were recording in big fancy studios. Didn’t realize it was all DIY

[@prmbapodcast]

Exactly! Same here

[@RamsHouse99]

Probably the most under appreciated and underrated producer of all time

[@thecasiorobinson]

The production on with roots is amazing

[@austint1151]

That was one of the best sounding albums of its generation. I used that album to introduce friends to metal in high school. A lot of people knew disturbed and avenged sevenfold, Prada was a stepping stone into the harder stuff

[@bensvault9149]

I had that album on yesterday for the first time in years, everything sounds so crisp on that record

[@Tzalmavet]

Joey set the standard for late 2000's/early 2010's metalcore production and it was all DIY with trial and error.

[@datboi_gee]

Honestly all of the records Sturgis produced during that era are phenomenal. At least all of the ones I've heard. The Devil Wears Prada, Asking Alexandria, and Of Mice and Men all come to mind as incredibly influential for their time. Seemed like every band wanted to be Asking Alexandria the summer after that debut. And the Of Mice self-titled was just fire sonically. I remember blasting their CD in a Walmart parking lot, air guitaring the riffs, and a couple in the car next to me stops so the boyfriend can ask who I was listening to. I'm sure there are a ton of records that are slipping my mind atm that are from that era with identical recording techniques from the same time with the same equipment and musical sensibilities. But in the late 00's when a metalcore band got in the studio with Sturgis, you could expect the richest sounding thick guitars and punchy drums that hold up like a fine wine to this day.

Yall remember that fucking site called Purevolume holy shit

[@scottsmith8162]

yeah bro haha. Every generation thinks they grew up in the best era but being a teenagerin the 2000s was majestic.

[@JordanStead]

The legend. Loved this full interview.

[@millennial_falcon2240]

I believe he produced for a band called Sleep Serapis Sleep from Milwaukee

[@Tony-Jabroni]

And With Hours Waiting in Milwaukee.

[@gh0ul.nin9]

Love Joey and all his work. Such a great and talented producer. I’ve learned so much from his YT channel and I absolutely love his plugins

[@core4X]

Gonna see them tomorrow night

[@tdrew337]

He did a really good job with Asking Alexandria as well

[@frederickfiliph3798]

And unlocked Danny's full potential.

[@AGuyUwU]

@@frederickfiliph3798 Band was horrible, but it's undeniable that Joey was entering his best years of production.

[@SDREHXC]

Hearing the name Gwen Stacy is a throwback. This mans name is attached to so many projects over the years.

[@SilverRedhed]

TDWP has always been my favorite band and I happen to be wearing an old Gwen Stacy shirt while watching this. I'm so excited rn lol.

[@DCBMusic]

I don't feel bad at all for being a garage producer now

[@calebmoffatt2873]

Bro i never knew he produced this album!! They were the first band that I listened to with screaming vocals when i was like 14 lol, so tdwp will always have a place in my heart haha. I watch joeys guitar mixing videos now to create my own music. So bonkers to me.

[@god6384]

old myspace was amazing I don't understand why they keep it the way it is now. Like if someone would just completely copy the old myspace and fix some things about so it can be used on mobile and maybe add an event calender and just call it mypage or something you would make millions...

[@TheHIOJK]

Legend.

[@blegh.3403]

Joey Sturgis was the fucking man in the early 00s metalcore scene

[@briandlamini1689]
