That "Clayman" sound....
So I'm checking out "Clayman" by In Flames, and I'm really blown away by the guitar sound. Anyone out there have any info on what they used?

I have been searching for the answer to that question for a while now, and I don't know either. It really sounds like EMG 81s driving the rhythm channel of a 5150 to me, though, and I'm guessing a cab with Vintage 30s was used, either with 2 mics (at least one of which was pretty far off-axis) or with some drastic EQ to get that ~2 kHz spike like that with the 3.5 k underneath it, or maybe both. Although, looking at the grillecloth on Fredrik Nordström's Marshall cab underneath his 5150, it might be Greenbacks. All of that's just speculation, though, and I would appreciate some hard info just as much as OzNimbus.

Well, rumor has it that it was a 5150 on the green channel... I'm a little more curious about the mic setup.

At any rate, this is a great question. I think any metal band would sound rad with that production...I'd be curious to see what the room looked like as well. IMO it sounds like there's a hint of room verb in there that just makes the guitars sweet as hell....I'm with you guys: I would love to find out more about this.

I seem to remember it was the 5150, but /w the ENGL cab, not the Marshall cab. I just sent Nordström a text message about it, I'll post the answer here if I get one.
Edit: got an answer immediately; "it was a hell of a mix, call me some day and I will tell you everything I can remember". So I called him, but caught him at a bad time. So I will call again tomorrow.

I've recorded three albums in Studio Fredman with my band The Storyteller (1999, 2001 and 2003), and the fact that I have Fredriks phone numbers is thereby neither strange or a big deal.
And you can easily find the number to the studio if you really want it (no secret). However, he has recently moved the studio to a new location with a new number, and the website still has the old number listed.
