Considering the fact that they've stated to be against the loudness war, BC&SL is still very loud album and Raw Dog is extremely compressed. The average dB of dynamics is the same on BC&SL and SC - around 6 dB. What happened between them deciding to make a more dynamic record and them releasing it as a loud record? In my books DT is still very much a victim of loudness war.
You aren't being quite fair. Even during the soft sections of TMOLS, there's maybe 2db of dynamic range. . BCSL isn't the greatest response to the loudness war (see below), but the album lacks any truly purposeless compression. During the soft sections of BCSL, the music actually breathes. And during the heavy sections, the gain meter isn't constantly racing toward 0db. Compare Wither to Forsaken in Audacity. It's not as big a difference as I'd like, but it's still a difference.
But:
BC&SL kinda fails at stepping away from the loudness war because, though they DID scale things back, they didn't really scale things back enough to make a difference. So they lost all the benefits of having a really loud, heavy hitting album like SC without reaping much of the benefits that the truly "dynamic" albums have.
This is still true.
For what it's worth, I actually like how Raw Dog sounds. The whole song is balls to the walls heavy, so it makes sense for it to be super loud and compressed. It's not constantly racing for 0db, and I can turn it up without hurting my ears.
