That's it. Which version do you enjoy the most? The 1985 original, or the remastered one. |

I only the Century Media remaster. So I can't compare, but I would love to find an original version. |

The original is almost always the best. |

Do you mean the CM reissue or the re-recorded abomination named "Let There Be Blood"? |

Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
Yeah, the original was fine, and with it you also get to listen to the vintage version that everyone listened to back in 1985. So why even bother with a remaster? |

The Century Media remaster is actually pretty decent. It's higher in volume but not exactly "louder," if that makes sense, compared to the original. If you're asking if it's brickwalled or super-compressed, someone else could probably let you in on that as I'm not that intelligent on those matters yet. The same also holds true for the CM remastered reissues of Pleasures of the Flesh and Fabulous Disaster. Nothing's been rerecorded or sampled so you do get the original tones. That was one of my favorite things about FD in that the rhythm guitar tones seemed to slightly vary from song to song. Not sure if that was intentional, but I appreciate it nonetheless. I do have the original issues of the first 3 albums for collector's sake but I think this is an example where the remaster was done right. I have seen mp3s and lossless versions of the reissues floating around the web, so it is possible to compare and contrast if you feel it necessary. |

I have the 1999 Century Media version, with the faithfully restored artwork and two live bonus tracks. It doesn't mention anywhere being remastered. Is my version a good version, and is it the original or a remaster? |

The original 1985 combat/torrid cd pressing with the blue cover with the 2 kids on it sounds different then the 1989 reissue with the red and black cover. I prefer the original combat/torrid pressing from 1985 with the blue cover, because it sounds like the recording is coming apart at the seams at times, like the equipment was hardly meant for recording metal and its pushing its limits, like on some of the songs when a certain note is hit it sounds like the recording is about to be ripped apart since it can't handle the heaviness. It would probably sound faulty to most people but it gives it a certain charm to me. I have the century media remaster I don't remember it sounding different then the 1989 red cover version. |

Like a lot of people I have the 99 reissue with the black and red cover. I haven't heard the official remaster but I don't believe I need to. The original sounds perfect, and there's also Another Lesson in Violence and Let There Be Blood as well, both of which are great, particularly the former. |

Original - goat hooves down.. the new vocals just kill it for me... nothing can top the original songs... and the production is just a tad too clean... b. |

Original Wins. The remastered has just 1 flaw. The screamo type vocals. |

How is it possible not to know the difference between the remaster and the re-recording? I'll ask the obvious: mrblaash and nuke777, how old are you guys? |

Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
My bad lol didn't notice that. Actually I didn't even know they had a reissue of it. I usually dislike remasters. In this case, can't really judge because I don't even know what version I have. It's Thrashy as hell, regardless. I've heard LTBB though, it sounded very strange with the new vocals. Let there be a reissue of Let there be blood with Zetro on vocals. |

Interesting note: The '99 re-issue with the read and black cover is actually an image of a crowd at a concert. It took a few minutes of staring to see it. |

Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
Why would someone prefer a remastered edition than the original? I honestly don't get it, maybe I don't want to.. You know, I will always prefer the original versions, it is more close to the band (every band) when they were young and hungry for some pure aggressive music! With the remastered versions and all these stuff this pure feeling is getting lost. |

because if it sounds good to them why would they care what anyone else thinks. +1 original +0 reissue -1 remastered ? rerecorded heh heh |

As much as I love Zetro, that rerecording would only be fixed if the riffs didn't sound so slow and downtuned. For some reason, songs like "And Then There Were None" just don't work out of their conventional tuning. |

Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
hey, need to use this thread , don't want to start a new one can someone explain me the main differences between the versions of this album right now i'm having the silver edition one released 08 by century, is there a difference to the other century remaster releases? and how does it compare to the back in black one and the old original 89? and 85 |
Author: | inhumanist [ Wed Aug 22, 2012 2:04 pm ] |
Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
I have the silver edition too. It has the original cover artwork and a folded poster as booklet. It also has a nice blue slipcase with silver logo on it. The production/sound gives no reason to complain. The archives say it's the remastered version while implying the 1999 release isn't. Did cost me 10 €. |

@Heavy_Liquid The original version of Bonded By Blood has Paul Baloff on vocals as well as the original (ie 80s) production. The '08 version is a re-recording of all the songs on Bonded By Blood but it has Rob Dukes on vocals because Paul Baloff died in 2001 or 2002. |

Bonded by Blood is with Baloff on vocals FULL FUCKING STOP. Exodus made some pretty decent music after Bonded by Blood, but it never sticked with me perhaps due to the lame vocalists they've had since (including Zetro). |

the original without a shadow of a doubt pauls vocals were shitty but matched the agressive and dirty music perfectly, still one of the best thrash albums out there |

Definitely the original, often in the remastered versions they like.. take the soul out of the music.. if you know what I mean, sounds more generic. |

Remastered =/= Re-recorded. Remastering is as its name implies: the mastering of the album is redone. This usually leads to the album sounding "louder" and more compressed at times. |
Author: | Mike_64 [ Thu Aug 23, 2012 2:57 am ] |
Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
neither. I've always preferred Another Lesson in Violence. It's got Impaler instead of Metal Command plus a few from PotF with Paul on Vocals. |

Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
well off course i cant compare to the original CD or vinyl release, but i cant hear a compression or soulless work on the 08 silver century remaster, neither on my 2.1 microlab speakers system nor my cowon player + ultrasone headphones another lesson in violence i read is good, need to check it out |

I've got a question about the 2008 edition. Can anyone describe the packaging of this CD to me? I'm interested in the following: - back cover - booklet - are there liner notes? or band photos? - does it in any place contain this http://s.discogss.com/image/R-1644766-1314542699.jpeg or this http://s.discogss.com/image/R-2862573-1304535754.jpeg? I'm considering replacing my versions (I've got the 1985 original and the 1989 alternate cover edition) so I'm wondering what I will lose or gain... |
Author: | dreadmeat [ Fri Nov 23, 2012 6:08 am ] |
Post subject: | Re: bonded by blood.. original vs remastered |
back cover = what about it? you want a picture of it [scan] there are liner notes, credits, a few words from the band explaining why they did it etc and the gear they used yes there is a band photo under the disc and the same one in the booklet the first image isn't present, the second image won't load [discogs images don't like being directly linked] i've got the 2008 let there be blood re-recording and the 1989 alternate cover edition http://www.discogs.com/Exodus-Let-There-Be-Blood/release/1597317 http://www.discogs.com/Exodus-Bonded-By-Blood/release/3856527 |

Thanks. The second image is the back cover of the 1989 alternate cover version, the picture of the whole band. Is that repeated in the 2008 version? |

Aghhh, misunderstanding. I do have "Let There Be Blood", but am wondering about the 2008 edition of "Bonded by Blood". This one: http://www.discogs.com/Exodus-Bonded-By ... se/3415598. Of course it's a different picture in "Let...", it's a different BAND! |

Those who whine about the original release's of old school albums as "not loud enough" must have really shitty sound systems. |
