There are members of the old guard, like Bruce Springsteen, that have stayed relevant. There are those who have set higher album sale records. There are musicians that might get more critical acclaim. One need only to see all of the friends he assembles for his Sound City documentary/album to see that, and it's not even the first time he's put on a star-studded show (lest we forget Probot, Them Crooked Vultures or that time he covered 'London Calling' with everyone you ever liked ever).

Sound City Real To Reel Zip Download Of Cut

Compared to other histories, such as the excellent Perfecting Sound Forever by Greg Milner or This is Your Brain on Music by Daniel J. Released concurrently, the Sound City DVD and Sound City: Real to Reel CD could easily make someone feel cynical from a distance. Receive an instant download of Cut Me Some Slack.

Otherwise, the film's first half or so deals with making records in the '70s and '80s. Grohl doesn't intrude too much, occasionally injecting humor as well as his own experience recording portions of Nirvana's Nevermind. It helps to be a fan of Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty and, um, Ratt, but the assembled talking heads offer up some interesting anecdotes about what it was like to make records. Grohls personal connection to Sound City began with the 1991 recording of Nirvanas breakthrough album, Nevermind.On that front, the documentary is hugely winning. And the staff, building and $75,000 Neve 8028 Console custom board that defined it.SOUND CITY, the film, was conceived by Grohl after purchasing the legendary custom-built Neve 8028 recording console from Sound City Studios last year. Granted, those kinds of issues distract from what Grohl wanted to talk about: Sound City Studios in Van Nuys, Calif.

The inclusion of Stevie Nix provides some nice circular storytelling, given that Fleetwood Mac were actually formed at Sound City Studios, but her contribution, 'You Can't Fix It,' is embarrassing.The session between Grohl, Josh Homme and Trent Reznor, however, is amazing. Sound City then essentially becomes an advertisement for itself, although it stumbles. Grohl bought the studio's recording console, which he employs in the film for some jam sessions with Butch Vig and celebrity friends. Just a decade later, it shuttered its doors after digital recording drove it out of business.

Reznor doesn't have any retro fetishes, instead observing that digital recording is a tool like any other. Homme is an analog guy all the way and even made the Queens of the Stone Age record Rated R at Sound City. Homme and Reznor also represent divergent ideals.

Because he's probably one of the most musically gifted people in the world. Because he's a got-damn Beatle in a room full of punks. This whole conversation is enticing but brief.That said, the best moment in the entire film is when Paul McCartney talks about breakdowns.

And it is nearly undone by its mixed bag of a soundtrack. The control board is massive and editing is a bitch, but in a way it doesn't get simpler than a couple of guys locked in a room with their guitars.Sound City isn't the hardest hitting documentary, more a collection of anecdotes about the way music used to be, but it's still an engaging viewing. Ease of use is always nice, but it doesn't always breed creativity the way we think it can. Foo Fighters and Springfield collaborate on a tune, 'The Man That Never Was,' and it is only through repetition that they arrive at the riffs they really want. ProTools makes it too easy to fix things, which means that ideas might not get as much review as they would in an analog setup. Also, his tune with a reconstituted Nirvana, 'Cut Me Some Slack,' is the 'Helter Skelter' sequel you didn't know you needed.The film suggests that music needs to be wrought from A) hard work and B) collaboration.

Springfield's clean power pop effort gets seated next to Lee Ving's 'Your Wife is Calling.' Foo Fighters pretend to be Fear for a song about beer ( obviously), and it's a fine blend of humor, Cali punk and blues. Slipknot's Corey Taylor turns in a hammy mid-tempo rocker that's probably the worst track, but plenty of the album's middle is forgettable blues rock.Real to Reel would have benefited from more diversity. The film shows how great music can get using '70s recording techniques the soundtrack shows how awful '70s rock got before punk came along.

Grohl put all this effort into extolling tape's virtues, and then put out a lackluster record anyway. While there are glimpses of genius throughout, the album cheapens the movie by being so inconsistent. It starts strong with Black Rebel Motorcycle Gang's 'Heaven and All,' but it quickly fades. The rest of the album needs to be this diverse, and it's just not.
