beatnik11 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 It doesn't sound bad. It sounds like Morning Glory has always sounded: loud. There will never be a good (technically speaking) sounding version of this unless they remix it, which they won't. I'm just happy this is available on vinyl again Im in the same boat as you. In fact they seemed to double down on the loudness in the remastering, but I read a response from someone involved and they basically said that it was an artistic reason in the first place. I may not have wanted it that way, but I guess I wasnt involved in the creation so I dont really have a choice in the matter. Im just happy there are more presses of the album out in the wild now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just happy there are more presses of the album out in the wild now When they were making the record they just pushed all the volume eqs to 10, to create the "wall of sound" technique. Being extremely loud is what they were going for, and I wouldn't have it any other way haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parker Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 One thing I disliked however is that "Bonehead's Bank Holiday" song at the end of Disc 1 side 2. Such an atrociously bad song IMO, it's like a turd in the middle of an otherwise faultless record. I hadn't heard this song before. I agree that it's somewhat annoying, but I got the impression that it was a mostly satirical attempt at making fun of your typical Blur song. Not entirely successful but somewhat amusing in that context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 It was definitely a dig at blur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timsimmons Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Seeing as they wanted to do the deluxe release, I'm sure it's coming. Wouldn't be surprised if it happens 7/1 too, but they want to do the rollout for it like the other 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Really surprised they didn't do a Masterplan 2 (or whatever) for the remainder of their b-sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusted_By_Space Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 The masterplan was my soundtrack for about 4 months straight when it first came out, awesome news. ilike4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecayToDeath Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I kinda grew out of oasis but I still jam WTSMG sometimes. I'll see if Masterplan holds up later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 It's does. As well or if not better than WTS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I wonder if 7/1 is just a placeholder date. I've seen a few reissues posted on here today from Bull Moose and they all seem to be 7/1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I'm super-excited about The Masterplan reissue--when they put a bunch of those tracks on the WTSMG deluxe reissue, I was worried they'd skip it. I might be looking forward to that one the most. I won't be running out to grab them right away, though; it's still pretty easy to get the first 2 reissues at reasonable prices right now.

drewvandal Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 The Masterplan Standing on the Shoulders of Giants Don't Believe the Truth Heathen Chemistry Are out 7/1 http://ow.ly/10pvqK YES. Was literally about to spend too much money on a copy of Don't Believe The Truth as a birthday present to myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
