Hello,
This album should have been titled "Lack of Passion", because that's exactly what you get in this Silverline (un)mixed bag of tunes by Big Head Todd and the Monsters. I wouldn't recommend getting it unless you are a fan of these guys already like I am. The first three or four songs have some ok discrete mixing going on then it drifts around in the usual double stereo that the guys at Silverline are masters of.
One redeeming thing about it is that it decodes rather well through the variomatrix. One interesting thing that I noticed while a-b'ing between the surround mix and the decoding of the stereo mix is that the variomatrix was separating everything out and distributing it in the same layout as the surround mix on the songs where there were actual discrete mixes to begin with. On the songs that are double stereo to begin with, they decoded into decent sounding surround.
