Edited 2 years agoVery wide dynamic range, so much that one needs a very powerful amplifier. Flat sound that could be changed with EQ. Details of the sound are all right for such an old CD. -
Great album and grows more likeable with more listens. However it is let down by the sound a little. None of the masters / versions are outstanding. With a good cartridge / preamp hifi setup the original SPV Steahammer vinyl probably has the best presentation and clarity but the stereo balance is out, with drums and vocals off centre etc, different on each track too.
The original Steahammer CD has much better balance but seems slightly dull and quiet. The later other label versions lack clarity to me, although I haven't heard Patrick Engel's LP remaster on High Roller Records, I find his work usually good, although I'm not sure if it's an LP rip remaster or from the original tapes.
The high roller CD is mastered by another Engineer who also did the High Roller Cd of Eternal Devastation - which I'm not keen on. It's been equalised too much and it loses some of the energy of the original sound for me.
In the end, I've ripped the Steamhammer CD to Audacity as wav files and increased the treble by 1.5 dB then amplified the result by 3.0 given how quiet this CD is, this does not clip other than one huge snare hit on one track. This is a massive improvement, sounds a lot like the LP but without the balance issues.

This one needs a remaster, 'cuz it's their most technical (Henry should always be in the band, not just a studio lead guitarist only as he's been since they resurrected from whatever Mike was trying to do in the 90's lol, excluding Cracked Brain. But the sound is so muffled, maybe it sounds a bit better on recently reissued vinyl, but none are remasters, so they likely all sound the same. Sure they re-recorded a lot of the songs on here on Thrash Anthems and Thrash Anthems II , they're good but it's not the same thing exactly. I know there is the High Roller Remaster, but the High Roller RM of another album by another band and it wasn't a great remaster unfortunately..
