Thanks to Blabbermouth for the linkage.

Por nada.

Is it just me or is the guitar tone very compressed? Some of the rhythm parts sound like they were recorded using amp modelling rather than using a real amp? Maybe I need my ears cleaned out! I just don't hear that ballsy tone of Down the Drain from the first record. I do like that on some of the songs Satch has backed off the gain a lot... interesting to hear him playing with a cleaner tone.

I haven't listened to the whole thing, but given how quickly the files download, my guess would be that the streaming version isn't exactly CD-quality. The whole thing is probably pretty heavily compressed for streaming purposes. Of course, I wouldn't be able to say without listening to the CD itself.

[Lev]

Yeah I did think of that but the vocals, drums and bass didn't sound so compressed. I'm sure you're right though, better to reserve judgement until the CD comes out.

I like the darkness and intensity of the first record a little better. On this one it appears to me they are looking for a radio hit.
