RE: Why contemporary music sounds terrible



Hi Chris,
I wasn't commenting on anything about the production or arrangements other
than the over use of limiting in the mastering stage.

I personally prefer Rush's earlier stuff, up to Signals. Farewell to Kings,
Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, and especially Moving Pictures are my faves. 
I
think I'll pull some out right now and listen to them...

Interesting comment on Vapour Trails. I found it over-produced too, 
loads of syrupy background vocal tracks, etc.
One Little Victory is still a great positive song to get your blood 
pumping though!

Try comparing Vapour Trails to Test for Echo or Counterparts ... I 
think those two have much more clarity and extension in the highs.
