drums sound awful, goes to show how much production has declined over the years



Nick does sound awesome but I wonder what kind of studio shenanigans they had to pull off to make him sound that good, no way he can pull that off live imo. I'd love to be proven wrong tho

kind of the struggle I face with a lot of re-recordings, some things are better yet some areas took a cut. I agree that Holmes sounds awesome here and the guitars also rock, definitely some essence of their resurrected death-doom sound. But the drums sound like they were mixed for a different project..

Album seems to always be better than I think. The rerecording was ok.

The re-recorded version of Embers Fire is already one of my most played PL tracks

For what it's worth, I saw them live in Lisbon last December 16, playing this album in it's entirety, and Nick sounded better than he has in many year (last time I had seen them was 2019 and he wasn't sounding this amazing, for sure).
