Needles & Grooves

Dynamics of every Cure album post mix.

Hey I like the Cure but their mixing/mastering freaking SUCKS YO

How dare you blaspheme Bob like that

Also clearly you’ve never heard a Hold Steady album past 2005

Oh there are LOTS of terribly mastered albums, but I consider the Cure particularly high on the "this should sound way better" scale. With the kind of layered almost orchestral music they make it's a tragedy that it doesn't have the sound quality to make it shine.
