My computer is in my record room and it is literally the only album I have that sounds better through my shitty computer speakers than my expensive ass monitors... At low volume its acceptable but if I try to crank it up just a little to rock out its unbearable!
I know its suppose to be "lo-fi" but you cant distinguish any of the instruments and the vocals are shit... If the MP3s sounded the exact same I probably wouldn't be complaining but its a night and day difference to my ears and I am not an "audiophile" by any means but this is way to noticeable... |
I will give my MP3s a listen when I'm back home. Haven't played them for quite a while now because I only listened to the record. |
Burned my MP3s on CD to listen to them on the same stereo as the LP. I have to admit the burned CD (source was a 320 kbps CD rip) sounds better.  Disappointing, really. The LP doesn't sound as bad as jes9582 described in my opinion but compared to the CD rip it doesn't create a "vinyl feeling". Will give it a spin on the stereo of a friend of mine, he has an incredible high end stereo with a Linn Sondek LP12 player. High quality records sound absolutely amazing on this stereo system but inferior records sound even worse than on other stereo systems. I will let you know then... |
I am just being hard on the overall quality because I expected it to at least sound better than the MP3s that I have been listening to off and on for the past year... Oh well still a good album just a bit disappointed... |
It's nice that nothing has changed since first pressing and initial bitching. Was really disappointed until I got tons of money for it from some ebay bidder. |

When you're young and broke, it's easy to be an anarcho-socialist leftie idealist. When you're older and have a mortgage and car payments and responsibility, it's easy to be a jew.

I just checked and the shipping on the (Original) Iron Maiden LP to us UK residents is over GBP 8!!! What a joke.
Fuck this money grabbing label

I got the LP on Black and a second copy on what appears to be a color not listed ANYWHERE online - white with red splashes? Anyone see this one?
Anyway, yeah - the Youtube tracks sound A LOT better than the lp, which is a shame.
Where the hell is the proper cd version from Rise Above? iTunes?
I want better sounding versions of these songs to play when I DJ.

It's one version of the second edition. I think it was limited to 400 copies. |

Judging by the colour of his face, it's being spent on alcohol in order to burst more blood vessels. Moral of the story: the only good hippy is a dead one.

The CD version i got about a week ago from HHR was on a label called KILLER CANDY RECORDS...
anyone into the previous record, "Vol 1"? Even more lo-fi than "Blood Lust" and some swinging 60's filth rock...otherwise just as entertaining, need to have a real CD of this one... . . . LP's are just sooooo Ebay... |
