I bet it'd sound better live, overproduced imo. That hihat is obnoxious.

Ain't nothin' wrong with a bit more of the same ol' ZZ formula. I still prefer their earlier material but there ain't much to beat some good ol' Rev Willie G grind.

Man, there is some serious brickwall limiting on this recording!

I guess if you can't beat 'em, join 'em in the loudness wars.
