Are the remasters worth getting? The production on the originals doesn't bother me apart from the shitty 80's drum sound

Usually, what I hate about remasters is that they attempt to make the sound larger and louder than the originals and the end result is a sound that's so overblown, it sounds like crap.

the drum sound is pretty badly dated, but i guess it's the same for most 80s albums

Ya. I feel the same way about joy division. It sucks cause it makes meenjoy otherwise brilliant music less (this is the only smiths album that bugs me though)

80's snares are so fucking awful

Especially in hair metal and electronic shit at the time

Hah, that must be it. I love a lot of 80's pop albums and they all seem to have that sound.
