DR4 lmao

I really like the "new" details I can hear, but the mastering is dogshit

You nerds are surprisingly agitated about this.

Three tracks in and it’s a total mixed bag.

New Born sucked, the snare was horrible and way too up front in the mix.

Bliss didn’t feel any different.

Space Dementia ruled. Took a 7/10 track and probably made it 9/10.

"Drones wasn't that bad if I remember correctly, had like 4 pretty good songs if I remember? There's my biking music for today." - I was wrong. Two strong songs

Ok so it was only New Born’s snare I didn’t like, rest of the album was either on par or better than before - really enjoyed that!

I don't even mind Micro Cuts starting late but yeah that New Born snare ruins what otherwise would've been a great remaster of that track.



Also I can't believe more people aren't mentioning the vocals in Feeling Good. They just... disappear at the most climactic moment? So weird

The New Born snare is the only thing I think is handled poorly, and I didn't even notice Micro Cuts starting late lol I was more focused on the harpsichord

This sounds about as pointless as those ABR re-releases

I knew something was off about Micro Cuts' intro I just couldn't put my finger on it. Mistake or change in artistic intention?

Let's hope Bellamy doesn't get a taste for re-release meddling on a George Lucas level

The new album cover is sick. Will check this full thing out at some point, the cuts I listened to I was pretty neutral on.

Album sounds significantly better imo. The remix brought out so many synths and strings that were mixed so horribly the first time around they literally couldn't be heard.

Citizen Erased showcases this, I had originally thought they added some new synths, strings, and piano in a couple different sections was pretty shocked that it was all in the original mix.





Snare in New Born is annoying agreed. Space Dementia and Darkshines sound significantly better it's pretty incredible to even believe they are the same recording.

The original is pretty mediocre, so I don't have much hope for this
