Which website's rip is the "good" one?
There's multiple 320 rips out there: the one on What is apparently just a transcode, etc.

Re: Lightning Bolt: The Official Album Thread
Okay, upon first listen this is a very solid album! I'm excited to hold the physical copy in my hand sometime week. Oh so excited. Gotta say my favorites are LTRP, infallible, and Pendelum.. All very different. Love them

The tracklisting
It's bonkers.
This does actually sound like an album recorded in two sessions over two years and then mixed up.

Well, I can safely say this album will go at number 8 in my rankings, possibly tied with S/T but I think much better.

I'm loving the blend into the next song that appears here and there.
And I hate fade outs but this works.

I was definitely feeling that up til LTRP. That thought didn't necessarily change, but that's the point I stopped thinking about how awesome Jeff was on every song.Monkey_Driven wrote:I want to give Jeff a big sloppy kiss after listening to this album.

Haters gonna hate. Should be the sutitle of this forum
This album is great. My expectations were very low with what I had read from the preview hearings.
