Why is this bad quality mp3 rip sounding better than when I listen to Lightning Bolt on Spotify?? (listening LB right now to compare both albums) :lol:

I really don’t think this band has ever had someone capture them in such a lifting, flattering way.

It’s kinda like if a band came out of the gate sounding like Backspacer...like, if that sound was their starting point...this is what their Binaural would be. Except this band didn’t panic at the last step.

i've only listened to this a few times, but all early signs point to this being a monster of an album. even the songs i ranked low are fucking impressive.

I still can’t get over:

1. How great to production is
2. How few (if any?) cringeworthy moments there are

If 7 years between albums results in albums like this I’ll happily wait until 2027 for the next :thumbsup:

I'll likely listen to an abridged version of this most often:

Dance of the Clairvoyants
Quick Escape
Alright (maybe)
Never Destination
Take the Long Way
Buckle Up
Comes Then Goes
River Cross

Ladies and Gentlemen: Jeff Ament.

I don't know if it's the production, but he sounds amazing on this.

Absolutely. It’ll sound completely fresh when we get FLACS too.

I've listened on computer speakers, decent home theater speakers and good headphones...and the difference in the headphones is pretty incredible. Maybe it's the mp3 rip quality but 50% of the sound profile seems lost on regular speakers.

I just played it on some old B&W bookshelf and it was sounding great!

I’ll wait for the FLAC to hook up to the MARTIN Logan’s. 8-)

Enough can't be said about the production. I'll have a mental breakdown if they ever return to BO'B. They need to get this guy to remix the last 3 albums FFS
