Why are they doing that?

Brendan has produced their best albums [Vs & Yield] and I'm sure this version of Ten will be even better than the original. Fingers crossed - though PJ being my favourite band leans me towards a bias.
Ten = cathedral reverb plugin.
I am excited about the re-release of this album.

Ten was all b-side trash IMO. Call me when they release VS.
Eh? I got Rearviewmirror when it came out. I thought the remasters were so bad that I immediately ordered an original release of every Pearl Jam album I didn't already own (Amazon used marketplace = cheap win) so I wouldn't have to suffer the horrible damage done to the Rearviewmirror songs.Quote:

I'll give the new Ten a listen if only for the sake of less reverb, but I won't be optimistic.
The only songs remastered were Ten songs weren't they? Maybe spin the black circle too? I can't remember.
