Dying Fetus: The Milkboy Session

Brutal death metal overlords DYING FETUS have unveiled a mini-doc about the band’s songwriting and recording processes. Filmed at MilkBoy Studios in Philadelphia, PA in 2017 upon the release of Wrong One To Fuck With, the band chronicled the re-recording of their classic track “One Shot, One Kill” with Swedish Producer/Engineer Mattias Nilsson. The video features interviews, a new “One Shot, One Kill” performance, and behind-the-scenes footage.

“One Shot, One Kill” is THE song that introduced me to Dying Fetus 13 years ago.

[@TheAnthonybroy7]

Same bro .. came across the video by accident on TH-cam about ten years ago myself. Was hooked ever since. the original blows this out of the atmosphere though

[@anthonyhodgson2934]

Homicidal retribution for me. Heard it about 2007

TRUE MAN 🤘🤘🤘😎👍

Subjected to a Beating for me but then I found their original gem of One Shot and it is now forever my first song on my workout playlist or yard work playlist

[@davidburns6284]

I'm not worried about Dying Fetus releasing a "Black Album" anytime soon. Absolutely incredible band.

[@timvolital]

...why would they release a metallica CD?
Stop hating & appreciate musicians for their journeys. Black album had great tone also, some of the best guitar tone still recorded to this day. Learn to appreciate shit or shut the hell up.

[@TonyTapdansingDanza]

yeah right. never. i cant even imagine a black album form dying fetus. fuck that

[@Lethe8737]

Beasley's bass sweeps are pure mastery

[@heifehen6222]

I wish they'd go back to Reign Supreme production. It was done so well, and is my favorite album from DF.

[@ccchase420]

fully agree, so ridiculously beefy and brutal. wrong one to fuck with sounded like a garage recording in comparison. it's dope the band recorded their own stuff for that album but i feel some things are better left to the pros. whoever did reign supreme should be their producer forever.

[@sicklettuce]

Regin Supreme was incredible

[@heifehen6222]

@@ccchase420 I just looked it up, it was done in WrightWay Studios (Baltimore), Steve Wright on the leading production/engineering. Which is interesting, because Wrong 1 2 fuck with, is the same producer. I guess they just went for a different approach, wanted it to sound more "raw"?

[@ccchase420]

@@heifehen6222 they stated in a video made during recording that they were very proud of the fact that they tracked their own guitars (and drums?) for wrong one. so the producer just mixed together what they gave him and recorded vocals instead of overseeing the whole project like he most likely did on reign supreme.

[@blind_surgeon]

I agree. When WOTFW came out I felt like I was in the minority that it wasn't as good as previous records. I even had fans chastise me for saying Reign Supreme was the best. But I guess it's good to see other people get it.

[@nickfoster9350]

I remember touring with these guys in 2008. I remember Sean wanting to mess around with my bass rig after most sound checks, and drinking on the bus with Fetus and Necrophagist. These are memories I will cherish forever. \m/

[@damnationdefied777]

Its always been a pain in the ass to look for a high quality version of this song, so with that said, still looking.

[@danpan6239]

Gave the bass the ol’ “And Justice for All” treatment I can hear

[@JT-jb7ux]

Bro, what are listening through? I can hear the bass just fine even through my phone speaker, which means the bass is definitely audible in headphones.

[@dbhgc13013]

could not of said that any better haha but really what the fuck is the deal with no mids and that vocal effect?

[@gort9623]

I wish the snare was a little louder

[@prepperandson1399]

It aint done their tracking obviously you know dick about recording

[@martinmorales3195]

It's a shame that you can't hear the bass I can hear it just fine. The thing is that you probably don't know where in the spectrum it is. When you don't know where the guitar ends and the bass starts, the untrained ear will hear the guitar and bass combo like one giant guitar sound.

[@cmd_f5]

I prefer the OG recording but this isn't bad in any way. Gotta remember that this studio is getting more into metal, so they may not have given the track justice, but they gave a damn fine attempt considering.
Fetus rules in any case.

[@who_we_are______5926]

Hey man I agree, they thinned out the master huh? Like they scooped out too much of the mid range.

[@KumeuZealand808z]

That is the coolest story iv ever heard

[@alc4117]

Dying Fetus is definitely still one of the reigning kings of death metal. Each of them are soo fucking masterful of their instruments and they’re writing is something you never get tired of. They stick with what they know and it’s always sounds fresh.

[@A7XKoRnRocks1]

The way Blunt Force Trauma, Killing On Adrenaline and Destroy The Opposition sounds I want that.

[@cgoodiefunk]

wow these guys are just real dudes grinding out badass music in their genre, it warms my heart. Truly one of the greatest. It's great to see something real.

[@user-yf9kk1fe1z]

When new albums legendary death metal bands, Dying Fetus, Suffocation, Sinister, Cannibal Corpse. This music is my life.

[@spikehackett3290]

And Skinless

[@AwfulWaffle6]

One Shot, One Kill was filmed at The Masquerade (RIP)?! Holy balls! That makes me love/miss the old venue even more now....

[@RowdyGrunt]

I WAS AT THAT SHOW IN ATLANTA!!!!!!!! I’m an OLD metalhead, and these guys have always been a cut above in skill and brains. This is so cool. I’ve sold my soul and went corporate, became a senior exec, and STILL BLAST THIS SONG IN MY OFFICE. Fun part is seeing people that want to tell me to turn it down, but won’t. Looks like these guys have a LONG time left in them. Seeing this, I especially cannot wait for them to come back to Atlanta. Imagine the material that they’re going to have after this bullshit mass hysteria is over.

[@matthewjoshua1025]

I love death metal and I'm a business major at CSU Stanislaus in Turlock, California. You didn't sell your soul just because your corporate 🙏

[@RowdyGrunt]

False Doctrine Destroyer :-) It’s been worth it for the better concert tickets! Look at supply chain/logistics/machine learning as a biz niche brother. I just left a sr. Leadership role at one of the Big 4, and we couldn’t get enough analysts for that space.

[@RowdyGrunt]

nowimhigh brother, if you ever get into consulting, I’ll be high too, and looking for someone smart enough to listen to Dying Fetus :-) I literally always find a way to figure out what new candidates listen to; and I’d be a liar if I didn’t admit to giving preference to my fellow METALHEADS. :-)

[@mjm00011]

I think it sounds kickass. It's like part two of this song rather than a redo. There are psychological studies that show people will almost always prefer the first version of a song they hear. This almost sounds like a whole new song. Dying Fetus is one of the most cathartic bands to listen to for me. No matter how pissed off or frustrated I feel after a bad day, I can listen to them and all that anger and frustration just channels through the music and is gone.
Dying Fetus never disappoints.

[@kinggg376]

Nostalgia matters a lot

[@SillyBoydo]

I agree. it's just a different mix interpretation. i think it's pretty interesting.

[@lenol0315]

It’s objectively better

[@trappunk5659]

Love it! U guys worked hard on this and I’m loving every minute of it 💯

[@evo7836]

This absolutely sounds like it was recorded in a studio that has never done death metal before, yikes.

[@lucasserpilli7028]

👍🙌

[@EvlynArrow]

I think what the studio was trying to do was make everything each instrument played discernible.

[@psycold]

Yeah I'm sure the people who wrote the song don't know better than you, random youtuber.

[@2005ttr125]

@eVo 7 holy fuck they squashed the shit out of this mix! Insane amount of distortion on the vox... and good god what horrendous EQ did they put on the guitar tones, where's the fucking BALLS?! It's a trebly, brick walled crushed to shit mix, does absolutely no justice to the song and the musicians who performed it...

[@CarcPazu]

It's not necessarily a bad thing. It sounds different from the original, different drummer and vocalists. The prod is clearer and each instruments is defined.

[@PARAMONARIOS]

Amazing! My favorite track got a re-make! Thank you!

[@rparas34]

This was fkn awesome!! Thanks for this.

[@pleasuretokill]

I've seen these guys live a few times. The first of which was on the Destroy the Opposition tour with Kevin Tally on drums in 2001. I was lucky enough to be able to stand behind his kit during the set. To this day, and I've seen hundreds of metal shows in the last 26 years... I've never seen a drummer destroy a kit like that.

[@djabthrash]

Kevin is a beast

[@jamseyy]

I've seen these dudes multiple times, always sick!!! Straight forward, straight up classic death metal. One of the last bands still doing it.

Definitely never mixed death metal before. I've been listening to Dying Fetus since I bought Infatuation with Malevolence from B&B music in the 90's. Their line up and production have changed over the years, but wherever they recorded Reign Supreme is where they should go back to. Or dude at Milkboy needs a lesson in metal...
Big ups to some Maryland Metal 💪 Hope you guys never retire.

[@jordanowens3748]

One shot one kill was the song that hook for me into death metal wahhhhhhhh I'm having a pure eargasm hearing it again after not listening for a couple of years

[@spikehackett3290]

Amen, its not about the lyrics its about the music. I have to explain this to regular people all the time. They just dont get , they want to "hear a story" barf. Why do you need music for a story?? Music is about music and is Why Death Metal is the highest form of music.

[@pietandersen6120]

Id wager that these people are just lazy if they cant get the story from the instrumental, or at the very least listen to shit music if their ears arent trained to do so. Also, Id wager that they are liars, because chances are they listen to stuff with the most meaningless lyrics on earthqnd enjoy it just as much as the stuff with.

[@trentcook4255]

Being from the Philly area with family still there I'm relatively familiar with Milkboy. This mix isn't bad, but you can tell it's mixed by a studio more familiar with pop acts. It needs more body.
