Free Music Review: Music that arguably could is helped by dynamic compression
Hit: 5 Stars
Ok, this review is to address another review saying dynamic compression kills this album. The thing is, with AC/DC, you could argue that dynamic compression helps there music. AC/DC is -suppose- to be loud.
Now I know dynamic compression can make the drums weaker and can cause clipping (a kind of click), but most consumer grade equipment can't even play the click since it's so short (most of the time it's less then 100 samples, and since CD audio is 44,100 samples a second, the clicks are only a few milliseconds). If you're an audiophile who thinks dynamic compression turned music into a living hell, you most likely use vinyl a lot since that's considered the de facto for music among audiophiles.
Bottom line: Get the vinyl copies if you're an audiophile. If you're a consumer, and love AC/DC loud, get this. It is VERY loud.
Highway to Hell Poster
What Highway to Hell has that Back in Black doesn't is Bon Scott, AC/DC's original lead singer who died just months after this album was released. Scott had a rusty, raspy, scream of a voice, like he might break into a coughing fit at any moment. In other words, on crunchy, hook-heavy metal classics like the title track, and on "Get It Hot" which is more roadhouse rock than metal, he had the perfect instrument for such wild-living anthems. Too perfect, it turned out. --David CantwellAC/DC's 1979 album digitally remastered and reissued in a special digipak plus a 16 page full color booklet containing all original album art, many unpublished photos, classic memorabilia and new 2003 liner notes. Epic.
