I think even the remastered “untitled” goes harder

It does sound better (they all do) but the "noisier" tracks are the ones I had little problem to begin with, I guess because the muddled production didn't make it feel like I was missing as much. (And I still somewhat think that's true - the sudden "clarity" of e.g. Chocolate Girl is something I never thought I'd hear.) But yeah, the remaster does make tracks like Untitled and the opener even more stunning. Might be time for the elusive 4.5 bump. Hard to think of another time a remaster has had such an immediate and unanimously positive impact on a record I already loved.



edit: eh fuck it, just came in my pants while listening to Alvin Row again
