    I bought this when it first came out, being pretty new to the 5.1 album experience at the time, and thought it was pretty cool. Many years later, I’ve only recently become able to play 5.1 SACDs again after a good decade without the correct gear hooked up and this still sounds absolutely awesome. I’ve acquired a lot more 5.1 remixes of classic albums since (on DVD and BD), but this is still up there with the best of them.

      Original album is five-stars. With the proper audio setup, the 5.1 surround mix on the SACD sounds pretty sweet. There's an option for the remastered two-channel stereo mix as well. Will playback on all CD players.

      Second disc are all stereo b-sides, remixes and demos from that time period; the stand out track being their cover of Joy Division's Dead Souls, originally released on The Crow film soundtrack, was a hit on KROQ radio in the 1990's.
