[caption=Cover of the June 2012 issue]061212_rsz_bv.jpg[/caption]An interview with Butch Vig, the legendary drummer and producer, is featured in this month's issue of Rhythm Magazine. Vig only produced one Green Day album: 21st Century Breakdown, released in 2009.
The rest of Green Day's major label releases have all been produced by Rob Cavallo, who is also the confirmed producer for all three albums in Green Day's upcoming trilogy: iUno!, iDos!, and iTré!.
In the interview, Vig discusses recording with bands like Nirvana, the Foo Fighters, and of course, Green Day.
He talks about the different elements that each drummer in these bands brings to the table, and gives interesting insight into how 21st Century Breakdown was recorded as a whole.
We'll have scans of the interview here on GDA in a week or so, but in the meantime, go out and buy the magazine! Lots of cool stuff in there, especially if you're a drummer! Here's a list of which retailers carry Rhythm Magazine, depending on which country you live in.
