This remix and remaster is totally unnecessary and ruins the whole vibe of the album. The supposed murky production adds a wholly unique, bleak, haunted vibe that, while clearly not planned or the explicit intention of the band, really compliments and enhances the droney, undead atmosphere this music creates. You could call it an accidental masterpiece, but that exactly how many masterpieces enter the world. This new remaster works to undo all that gives this album is special, haunting atmosphere. I'm happy to stick with my old REX Cd.
I absolutely 100% agree! I hate the drum sound on this one as opposed to the original. I bought the new remix/remastered CD but would much rather listen to the original R.E.X. one or the T&N "remaster".
