There I was properly drunk and stoned, ready to listen to Sonic Youth's new album for a second time. The glory of the first listen gone, what revealed itself was a crappy bit rate from hell. I saw red. I got as mad as a bull charging a MATADOR. But over and over again all I got was a face full of 128k/bit. There is no excuse for 128k these days. This is just another example of a record company not understanding the new digital market. It just doesn't do Sonic justice that THIS is the first impression most people will get of the album.
