This is a beast of a mastering job! Aggressive, in your face loud yet reveals nice subtle variances in the mix. Reminds me of the OG Clash UK releases where guitars just jump from the speakers yet retain all the midrange and thumping bass. The volume is rather modest so you can fucking crank the sound to 11, without any shrillness or sibilance. This attacks you. Get it.
Final Grade: 3.9
