Army reserve. Man, i love that guitar riff now.

Comeback is warm and beautiful. The guitars ring and sustain a bit now....

I am hearing interplay and notes Ive never heard before.

Usually I'm not a fan of fan remixes but this has definitely peaked my interest.

Maybe it's because I haven't played it in a long time but Gone sounds much better

Definitely. It's probably my least favourite song on the album, but the remaster sounds much more interesting and nuanced for some reason.

I think that's one of the most improved!

It's an interesting listen, a taste of what the album could sound like rather than a satisfying replacement in itself. Whatever process is used works better in some songs (and sections of songs) than others, probably unavoidably so due to the source material. It's really nice to listen to the record without the constant distortion and crackling that make the original master so unpleasant, I hope we get a genuine remaster one day.

I think AR, WWS, and Parachutes benefit the most from this

I agree. You can really hear that Mike's solos were punched in.

Man I want this reissue so much. Plus extra goodies. They are going to fuck it up I know but there's a chance they won't.

AR, Parachutes and Come Back sound so warm. And some guitar parts stood out in Big Wave too.

I just got way too busy yesterday. And then ended up going out last night. Hopefully, I'll get to it today at some point.
