i did a long shot and dm’d ben, for the sake of it. the most apparent to me is fingertips throughout the entire song, and 2:22-2:32 in grandfather is a NIGHTMARE. i hope he sees my dm 

 

whoever this new guy is, it’s pretty embarassing. i master records at home with standard software and methods that sound radio ready like… i could’ve been paid $10 and hour and done it twice as good 

i think it has something to do with how her vocals were processed in the mastering. the album vocals sound really muffled and whenever she goes high in her register we get cracklings. for example in grandfather from 2:24 to about 2:30 it is really messy. compare it to the leaked file we got and it sounds so much clearer and there are no audio issues. omg im absolutely fuming.

And Meta? 

[truthteller]

let's hope that they actually can fix the cracking like they fixed the glitch in COCC's Not All Who Wander Are Lost

[Indie]

I usually hate how Dolby Atmos sounds but the album is mastered flawlessly in Atmos, if you use Apple Music I would highly recommend turning it on just for this album.

I don't get fingertips yet, and that's on me. gonna give it more time

I think it's just because it was from the print version and that usually takes longer.

[Dragonfly]

I wish she had used the interludes for a

Candy Necklace (music video-shortfilm)

and Candy Necklace (digital single-EP)

instead of putting them on the album  

 

[Babydoll.]

well. overall still undecided but i love the grants and fishtail xx

[perfectillusion204]

Jack Antonoff ruining Margaret so easily... if it was solo it would be 10/10 but sadly he makes it drop to a 5/10; he's that bad.

I don’t understand the point of censoring the reference to her mom when she’s been dragging her for years now
