Maddie86 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 darn, that's kind of a bummer, I was really hoping the vinyl would be something special. I hope the band does do a 2nd release where the other members are involved, seeing as how Joey is the only one who gets a drum credit I think it's very safe to assume at this point that the rest of the project is 100% Billie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If no one else does it first then I'll post pics when I get mine from Amazon Yeah, I sort of assumed it was going to be very bare bones. Thanks for the offer of pics. 😀 6 hours ago, Karl Karlson said: There is no inlay sheet. The black vinyl comes in a plain white sleeve, and on the back there are only some credits. Thanks for the pic. 😀 Still hoping this will someday get released on CD. I'm not on social media, but I've noticed on Billie Joe's and The Longshot's Instagram that people are asking about a CD so maybe they will respond to that at some point...

MillenniumFan Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Can someone give me some feedback about dynamic range? It'll be difficult to measure specifics here, but does it at least sound significantly more dynamic? These days, that's the main reason I buy vinyls lol. If so, I may consider ordering online.

Maddie86 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I finally got this today. It does sound a little better than the digital versions, but not by much. I think the drums sound better but the guitars are kind of dull, I wish it would have been mixed and mastered better, it all seems like it was just an afterthought, along with the packaging. I do like the songs but I find it interesting that the one engineer for this said that when he went in to record the one song for the album he didn't know it was the real deal, he thought he was just doing a demo, so I wonder if they kinda half assed the recording. I was listening to the pinhead gunpowder recordings from 1999 today that were recorded at Billie's house and I think the sound quality is actually better on those! I do hope Billie picks this project up again sometime but I hope the other guys in the band play on the next album and I hope they put more effort into the final product.

MillenniumFan Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 From what you describe, it seems to me like they might have used the same mastering here, with possibly the exception of a few tweaks in the EQ, which isn’t surprising considering this was meant to be quite low-fi and underground.
