I'm guessing you meant this thread? I completely forgot I made it until you mentioned that
Anyway, I have another to add to the list. Most of R.E.M.'s 90s material is overproduced. Monster... ewww!

I'd say this song features some of my favourite black metal production. Drenched in fuzzy guitar but well-produced enough to have audible bass, raw enough to be sinister and demented, but not so raw that you can't hear what's going on, and not as hard on the ears as that Ulver song I posted.
Behemoth is an amusing case because they started out with production that was raw even by BM standards and then evolved into a DM band with some of the most sickeningly slick production I've heard in a metal band... seriously, how many times are the vocals layered in this song?
