New album remix

[Lordlindsey]

I'm geeked about the old songs being re-mixed in 5.1 Surround.

First, I though they were poorly done the first time around. Great songs, just didn't get the mix right.
Second...because I'm an audio/video geek, that now has some ANTHRAX to jam on my system.

Didn't Scott mean the live DVD was going to be in 5.1, not the MMA record?

Yes.
For MMA to be in 5.1, it would have to be a DVD-Audio release.

 

[poorchoiceofwords]

Yeah, he's talkin' about the DVD not MMA.

That's gonna be awesome hearing Anthrax live in 5.1. I hope they do a great job mixing the sound, cuz a live dvd with poorly mixed sound just sucks ass. When I got Rush in Rio, I was amazed at the sound quality. It sounded as though you were right in the middle of the crowd.

Rush always "sounds" good.

I thought the Rush one had some major flaws. I heard plain old static during "2112." I'm not alone.

 

[Lordlindsey]

What songs will be on the DVD then?
Hope they're 'recorded' songs, not live songs.

Damn, I missed that static. I'll have to watch that part again. I didn't mean to sound like an audiophile or anything, but I was thinking more about the sound being "huge" and making you feel like you're actually at the concert. I've got a dvd that does no justice at all to the sound of the actual concert and it's disappointing to be expecting more than that and getting something that sounds like shit.

Of course the Anthrax DVD is going to kick ass and I'm going to annoy the hell out of my wife (and neighbors) by watching it every single night!

I agree with that. It does show the passion of the Brazilian crowd.

Return of the Killer A's?

Return of the Killer A's?

No, I don't have Killer A's. It's the Blue Man Group complex dvd. I saw them on the tour and was all jacked up when I found out they were doing a concert dvd. Their goofy instruments they play aren't near loud enough in the mix, sometimes you can hardly hear them. Just the overall sound is poor, it's almost like listening to it through just a pair of bookshelf speakers instead of 5.1.
