I think I'm going to have to agree with a few others when I say I'm not sure how I feel about the new mix/master for the EP. Maybe my ears are biased from listening to the originals for so long, but it really seems to do a disservice to some of the tracks. Cold Water in particular has some great bass licks and high guitar riffs, but the new mix sounds almost washed out, like everything is really compressed. The original master sounded so clean and you could really hear the dynamics between the highs and lows. Like another commenter said, this mix just sounds really mid-heavy, and while it sounds okay for about half of the songs, Ragged Tooth, Harbinger, and Cold Water just don't sound as good to me. Granted I do most of my music listening on a fairly decent car stereo, maybe this mix was more designed for headphones.
Luckily, I have the originals so it's no biggie, but I was sort of excited to have them all in one nice package. Just wanted to give you my honest feedback. Regardless, I still love you guys and the songs are still baller. Honestly, if I hadn't been privileged to listen to the originals, I wouldn't be bitching about it. You guys are awesome and I will still happily support anything like this you do in the future. Peace, my friends.
