I'll say that again, Undertow DOES NOT need to be remastered.

Here's why : It is crystal clear as is. This is how you can tell the difference between a good mastering & not good mastering. You need to listen in headphones to Undertow. LOUD. You can still hear every piece of music. Now, if you put in 10,000 days, without changing the volume, it is full of distortion. If you're having trouble through headphones seeing what I'm talking about, try it through regular speakers. Too much rumble & distortion.

Rule of thumb, listen through a better stereo, don't make the album louder. Too much quality is lost.
I wasnt going to bother posting until I saw this post... finally, someone understands dynamics of shit. Undertow is perfect as it is. It's raw, gritty, everything it needs to be for what it means. Polishing it would only serve to diminish the quality. You guys want it to sound like Nirvana's nevermind, for fuck sake?
