For $30, this trick isn’t the cheapest one in the book, but it’s already done the job of snagging some attention for one of the hardest working bands in rock ‘n roll.

I admit that I haven’t heard the album, but I’m curious: How would this sound, on a nice vintage hi-fi in a faux-oak paneled basement, as compared to the mp3 version on the computer in front of you?
I’d rather surrender myself to the shag-carpeted comfort of the former.
