Re: Do you interpret "required SPL" on riders as A or C weighting?
Randy,
Funny you brought them up, they and the Plasmatics rated highest on the noise scale- the Plasmatics used lots of explosives, Einstürzende Neubauten lots of metal.
They have had a long time to perfect how to make noise, I remember before their 6/10/86 First Avenue show the Einstürzende Neubauten guys were out to the local Minneapolis scrapyard to purchase "instruments" :^).
Looks like they hung on to some of them for the last 27 years!
Reports were they buried the needle on the db meter set at "A" scale, 126 dBA+.
