Aw was hoping this would get a vinyl release, since their records are out of print and so expensive. This will still be cool though!

Yay…re-recordings of classic albums that will utterly suck the life and youthful energy out of the originals, and ruin the legacy :-(. Asked by nobody ever. Do the LS guys REALLY need the $$$?
I sorta understood when they re-recorded their indies album, as it had shitty production…but this? why? Because you can doesn’t mean you should.

I’m actually a fan of self-cover albums because it’s cool to see how the band has evolved and how the vocalists voice has changed over the years; perfect example being a Fabulous Thing in Rose by D’ERLANGER and INTENSE/MELLOW by INORAN.

Innnteresting~

If I remember well, the re-recorded version of their debut album had a very mixed reception but I dug it. If it’s about playing old tunes these guys still got it, so I’m not worried about these new recordings either. Bring it on!

Both songs sound pretty great! I literally cannot tell that LOVELESS is a re-recording, the original is just so perfect to begin with, and this new one doesn’t change anything. G sounds a bit more updated, I appreciate the added clarity (now I can hear some nuances that either weren’t in the original or just too buried in the mix).

They’re just gonna skip Image and Eden or did I miss those?

No, they haven’t done or announced those (yet).

But they did also special shows for Image and Eden a few years ago.

They didn’t play certain songs during the Eden show, though.

I like the new covers too! Callbacks to the originals while being their own thing.
