Great music, lousy recording

Every track on this album is superb, and it's long too, a full 75 minutes of beautiful, epic music.  But... and this is a huge "but"... EVERY TRACK IS VARIABLE BITRATE.  This results in fuzzy, overdriven sound in some of the more intense walls of sound that Bergersen creates, and believe me in this album there are plenty.

This is why I prefer hardcopy CDs; I feel cheated paying for an album that is not the best quality it could be, not by the composer but by the distributor.  This is my first purchase from CDBaby, and will definitely be my last.

One of the most creative, beautiful, and technically brilliant albums I have ever heard.  Want to upgrade my audio system just to "hear" it like it was meant to be heard.
