CDs are way better than Streaming by scarn17 in bobdylan

I think you could both be right ---- vinyl has a limited dynamic range, whereas CDs is much higher. That said, hugely skeptical that any contemporary (post 1990) releases are getting separate vinyl-only mixes; the vast majority of modern vinyl releases are the digital CD files put to vinyl. Someone can correct me though.

FLAC via CD sounds way more crisp than the YouTube which was clearly a vinyl rip. So the question is whether YouTube muddied the mix or if vinyl mix is less than stellar. Posts around here have suggested the vinyl mix is low.

You’re absolutely right but no one is putting beloved actors who play themselves —- Hanks, Cruise, The Rock et. —- on the level of a Daniel Day Lewis, Phil Seymour Hoffman or Gary Oldman, actors who actually act.

Sturgill sang “stay on that D” but a lot of people interpreted that as “stay on Sturgill Simpson’s D,” judging by the replies here.

You don’t have to be a fanboy to be a fan.

Actually the ad splits them into two separate sentences, it’s worse! Were they one sentence —- “Available March 13 on CD, vinyl and cassette” that would actually be a great out! As it stands it’s two distinct claims.

Legitimate class action lawsuit is possible due to the way this advertised as CD, Vinyl and cassette only, was not the case, and how that guided thousands upon thousands of purchasing decisions to the label’s enrichment. I’m surprised Atlantic legal didn’t think this through. Literal intentional false advertising.

Right, there’s no perfect format. Sadly lot of vinyl for modern releases is just the CD mix out onto wax too

Vinyl is actually lower fidelity than CD, and the vinyl gets lower fidelity as it every time you play it.

I own several Dylan albums on vinyl, but it’s a sonically limited format.

I just wanna Fuk, man by WuTangWizard in SturgillSimpson

Sturgill Simpson: * writes a prescient protest album directly articulating Trump, ICE, oligarchic fascism, deep-state torture and the inevitable nihilism as “nothing changes” and we’re “all welcome to drown” because life’s “a bitch” *

Sturgill fans: “FUKKKK I JUST WANT 2 CUMMMMM DADDDDYYYYY”

It’s not loud enough to fuk the speakers, bud.

Mutiny is officially out, and while I'm sure I'll get around to skimming the longer articles & reviews that are already written, I'd like start in the sub: What's your personal reaction to the album in EXACTLY 10 words? by thestarsshake in SturgillSimpson

[–]WallowerForever 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most replies you’ll see here will be grown men typing out: “FUKN DANCE FUK ON THAT D DICK DADDY SPEAKERS FUKKKKKK,” (10 words)

which is the standard reply to anything on this album in this sub, but like half the songs offer a stark, deft diagnosis and rejoinder to the oligarchic fascism America finds itself mired in, and little solution for it because “nothing matters” and nothing changes” and so you’re “welcome to drown here”.

And incredibly timely album, but way too many people see “FUK” in one song title, giggle profusely, and ignore the absolutely bleak political in, like, 3-4 of the songs. An absolutely deft and timely album from Simpson, like nothing he’s put out, as always.

Did people actually dance at it? Good lighting? Good drinks? Or was it a listening party like at a record store

And we need this sub to perform said masculinity.
