Inner Sanctum - "12 a.m." CD (Walls Down 1994)

Lama · Post by **Lama** » Tue Sep 15, 2009 9:42 pm

Recently I stumbled upon the cd-version of the Inner Sanctum-LP in a second hand-store. I decided not to buy it immediately, because I've read some bad things about it concerning the sound (a.o. in the Corroseum-reviews section). Is there anyone here who has this cd? Is the sound like...really really BAD, or a BIG letdown in comparison to the LP-version? Or is it quite listenable, despite the loss in sound quality?

Haven't heard the LP version, but yes, the sound isn't the best on the CD, although not that extremely awful either.

I don't like the album, but the bonus demo tracks were pretty good!

All instruments on CD sound really 'thin', can't compare it to the LP version coz I haven't heard it

The sound of the LP is vastly superior to the CD. The LP has been uploaded in Poisonoise some time ago but the link has expired.

Would love a upload of the LP in it's original quality. I have a rip, but don't know if it's the cd or the LP rip. It's a crushing production. Killerrr record anyway.

Thanks guys for the informative comments! I'm gonna leave that cd untouched, hoping one fine day the real thing pops up...

Basically this CD sounds like a 2nd generation tape copy off the LP, but if you want the demo tracks on any kind of tangible format I guess it's worth picking up. Pay no more than €20.

GlockJohn: What's on the other demo not on the CD? I really, really love this unique feckoffSuperHeavy band...

Well, the cd costs 6 €. Anyone interested? If yes, I'll go back to the store.

I have a demo they made in 1980 (yes I said 1980)

1) Jailbait
2) Just like the Rest
