What makes a quality Greenleaf album? Arvid Hallagård reveals the band's essential rule for recording: securing a proper budget and demanding a strict deadline (like two weeks) in a real studio. He argues that while many bands record cheaper, track-by-track, the pressure and commitment of the "old school" studio environment is what forces a band to deliver a good record.
