I don't understand why people say the mix of Stranger Heads Prevail sounds lifeless? I never heard the original original album but to me, This mix of the new album sounded Really professional, Same thing when going from Vapor Trails to Vapor Trails 2013. It sounds cleaner and much more put together, which is what I look for in music, actually. Again, I have nothing to compare TYS to but I just think it sounds really solid the way it is now.
