Taylor Swift's "1989" louder than AC/DC's "Back In Black", claims study
Taylor Swift's "1989" is officially louder than AC/DC's "Back In Black", according to a study conducted by a mastering engineer. Ian Shepherd is the founder of Dynamic Range Day and, as Billboard reports, carried out a study comparing the volume of popular albums. According to Shepherd's study, Swift's "1989" clocked in at a DR6 rating, which makes it much louder than both "Back In Black" and Metallica's "The Black Album" (DR12 and DR11 respectively).
Taylor Swift's "1989" Is Louder Than AC/DC's "Back in Black" - Here's Why
In honor of last month's Dynamic Range Day, mastering engineer Ian Shepherd made an infographic comparing the loudness of popular albums - and the results may surprise you. Take Taylor Swift's "1989", which clocked in at a fairly compressed DR6 rating. While Shepherd says that's pretty standard for modern pop music, it's still much louder than classic heavy metal LPs like AC/DC's "Back in Black" (DR12) and Metallica's "The Black Album" (DR11). In comparison, Metallica's more recent Death Magnetic reached a blistering DR3 level, while Skrillex's Recess charts at DR4.
None of the included albums recorded before 1996 register above DR9, helping illustrate the trend of increasing audio levels on commercial masters - commonly referred to as "The Loudness War."
