So I got this German remaster from the 320 series for my birthday, and I've got to say this vinyl series is quietly nudging its way into my collection. Apparently, this is a 2003 remaster that used the analogue master tapes, and it sounds awesome.
I love the separation and how tridimensional it sounds, especially in the vocals. For such a beast of a record, there's a whole lot going on at all times, and you can definitely appreciate all the little overdubs and interplay. It's such a raw and powerful album, while at the same time a spectacle of musicianship, and this pressing lets that shine through without being buried under compression. On the contrary, it's a pretty crankable disc.
If you'd tell me this is the best Badmotorfinger ever sounded, I'd believe you.
An all too familiar story. Some early CDs from these 90s bands are pretty good, though (before everything went to brickwall city), but IIRC I don't think Badmotorfinger's one of the better ones.
