Well, maybe I jumped the gun in assuming that he sounded like this all the time. He did sound really good on a Lie video (where he is wearing the trenchcoat) from this year, so maybe it was an off night.
OR it could possibly be the equalization as DarkLord said. Blob, have you heard the boot, or are you speaking from being at the show?
I trust your judgement, but his voice sounds very... weird. Not nasally like Chaos in Motion, but just awkward. It is somewhat enjoyable, but my initial reaction was to turn it off and pretend like I never found it.
I still haven't heard a ton of it yet, so please excuse my ignorance if I'm wrong about this. I will post again once I've heard most of it, but as I said, ANTR did not sound that great to my ears.
Hopefully it is just the equalization.
