    Nonwithstanding the quality of the track itself, it's such a pity that Axl's "statement" when he chose a very light mastering touch for Chinese Democracy has consistently been followed by badly mixed and most of all compressed and brickwalled releases.

     

    On that front, The General has reached a new low.

    all the digital releases are brickwalled? I haven't bought any of them

    Appetite was recorded on analog tape, so, they likely captured it and stored it at 24-192 for archival purposes.

    These recent songs are all a product of the digital age, done in pro-tools, probably had the session captured at that rate. 

    Not an audiophile forum, but, honestly, nothing we really need to worry about too much.  It's more for the folks making the music.

    I see other bands with new songs with higher hz. Metallica for example. Weird. Oh well.

    “Hard Skool” becoming school-themed is cheesy as hell, even if we suspect the locker image was a nod to the locker leaks. The bell made me think it was fake when I first heard it (which wasn’t on Spotify yet in the US). Or that someone put it in the real song as a joke. I still hate the bell. Not a dealbreaker.

    Someone mentioned Alice Cooper’s “School’s Out,” but the lyrics are literally about school ending. “Hard Skool” has nothing to do with actual school.

    I think it was because it had "school" in the title. I never would have tied the locker image with the storage locker. That's a bit of a stretch
