This is awesome news! Looking forward to hearing what they’ll do with these tracks :slight_smile:

I’m really excited about the remakes of all my favorite indies tunes but I’m also a little worried. I haven’t always enjoyed lynch. remakes but I want to put my faith in them for such a large project.

To be honest though, I wish they remade tracks from SHADOWS. I wouldn’t be worried about that since I think SHADOWS is the indies album closest to their current sound. I actually think a remake would make me like the album more…

As much as this year made me wish ALL of our 2005~ favorites would do something like this, I have somewhat less faith in current lynch. making interesting remakes of GDS. It’s a great album though, and if I’m wrong that would be amazing :smiley:

Oh yeah @aihakujou you make a good point that there are a few other albums of theirs, (not necessarily as old) that could actually benefit more from this!

Honestly, I’ve already spectaculated at least a re-issue for GDS 20th anniversary, but that’s not a bad idea at all. Given that it’s extremely hard to get.
I mean I’ve snatched my copy last year for 11K yen, and that’s a tame price comparing to other offers I’ve seen :sweat_smile:

Who knows, if this turns out good, maybe later on we’ll get retakes or re-releases of the rest lynch. albums and singles from before I Believe In Me.

Not to be a downer, but I can already see them taking all the interesting textures and sounds of the original releases and sanding them down. They might do heavier renditions of the originals, but I’m betting they’ll be devoid of any character, impact, or grit (Like the remake of I’m sick b’cuz luv you). “Over produced” is the term running through my head right now.

I would LOVE to be proven wrong as greedy dead souls is one of my favorite releases by the band, really in the whole vkei realm of music. Please do justice to your legacy lynch.

Stoked. Never been a huge fan of the original album and curious to hear how they can make it mesh with their current style.
