I quite like the slight distortion on Ed's vocals during these (especially LTRP) but I'm guessing that's the leak's fault and they'll be clean...

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
I hope not. lol I'd hate to have to replace the album tracks with the leak tracks due to a significant change in the sound. Shitty leak or not, under the fuzz I love what I'm hearing and one of my biggest problems with Backspacer was that it sounded TOO clean for me.harmless wrote:I quite like the slight distortion on Ed's vocals during these (especially LTRP) but I'm guessing that's the leak's fault and they'll be clean...

It won't be that much cleaner. Even if it's a tiny bit cleaner, it's *fuller*, which instantly makes it sound more like... well, a band.Walker Bait wrote:I hope not. lol I'd hate to have to replace the album tracks with the leak tracks due to a significant change in the sound.

I dunno, there might be some distortion. When he goes into "you gotta know she'll never let you go..." in LB, that is a distinct change in the vocals. Like they're isolated or something.harmless wrote:I quite like the slight distortion on Ed's vocals during these (especially LTRP) but I'm guessing that's the leak's fault and they'll be clean...

Yeah, it's kind of crucial to get an artist you totally trust is awesome (I've failed once or twice on that) and that you don't get something you'll want to claw off in the futureblueviper wrote:no worries.

I would love to get a whole PJ sleeve, different artwork from albums and posters and logos and whatnot all tied together somehow...and now being able to add the LB artwork into it somehow would be awesome... Crazy maybe but what the hell...

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
That's true thank God. It's one of many things I've noticed about these tracks; they're all very full. The layering of different instruments and tones was done very well on these to give them I nice Full but not crowded sound. Even with the leak quality you can make out all the different melodies and tones. I love that.harmless wrote:It won't be that much cleaner.

So far we've heard
Getaway (studio)
Lightning Bolt (live/studio)
Mind Your Manners (studio)
Let The Records Play (studio)
Swallowed Whole (studio)
Infallible (live)
Future Days (live)
and I wouldn't skip any of them except for maybe Future Days (and I haven't even listened to all of it yet. I was going to wait for the studio version. Plus if that's the last track you don't really need to skip it then, eh?)

I'm hoping 'Infalllible' will be one song I can put on a par with songs from the first 7 albums.
