Fond memories of my parents singing along to this during long car journeys.

The recording quality seemed so bad (however loud I played it) that I had to go and listen to some more on Youtube.

Do all their tracks sound like they've been secretly recorded from a room 2 floors up and on a Ferguson cassette player inside a shoebox?

What am I missing?

Apostrophe (') came out at the end of last night's 70s themed playlist and seems worth another airing

I'm not really one for labeling artists and splitting some musical genre into a hundred other sub genres, but Wolfpack/Wolfbrigade are a Crust/D-beat band and one of the main identifying features of crust bands is in the way they mix their records. If you take out this final mixing and production thing out of their sound, then they'd be exactly the same as other D-beat bands (D-beat only means Hardcore punk heavily influenced by Discharge).

I do get this muddy production business when it comes to punk related bands, but I don't enjoy it when done with other genres. Here's a perfect example of (imo) a very good album ruined by atrocious mixing and production.

Thanks for that. I've now found Skitsystem and Norway's Crustina Aguilera.

Trouble is listening to them on a crusty laptop doesn't really enhance the experience - so I'm now going to have to advance the whole bluetooth media player thing that started with the new car.
