"BB Mastering" - compelling. A quick search shows it to be [url="http://www.blackbeltmastering.com/Home.html"]Black Belt Mastering[/url] based in Seattle. Sadly, I haven't heard of any of those bands on their site.

Maybe it's a simple test for mastering companies, but it's compelling because of how shitty Bob Ludwig/Gateway Mastering has been of late.
The mastering of Sirens leaves a lot to be desired so my expectations aren't particularly high.

What should I be listening for? I never really hear problems like that unless they're really obvious, like on S/T.

It's 8pm and I'm playing the leaked songs for the first time since last night. That's the longest I've been able to leave them since I got them.

Yeah, I haven't listened yet today. Trying to wean myself off a little bit before we get the rest.
