This 16-bit 2004 release sounds great. But why shouldn't it, as these lads took this 1st studio release to Abbey Road for mastering.
Still, my only question is why pay dearly for Abbey Road (which was most likely mastered at 24-bit or 32-bit and 192-kHz) and then release on 16-bits? Sorry for preaching to the choir.
