CD Reviews

A Sonic Mess...

"What an amazing album. Unfortunately, the sound on this release is horribly mastered. Too much digital hiss removal and heavy handed EQ spoils some brilliant music. I highly suggest the recently re-released Idle Race EMI CD set. it has problems of its own but is enjoyable nonetheless."
