The live IRS sounds a lot like a mix between the both versions we have. It doesn't have the drum machine in the slow parts, it has Robin's solo and guitar riff at the ending (I only could listen to that on Novarock boot), just like the '99 version. But it has Bucket/Ron fast solo, like the newer one.
yep also the live version has something that the 99 version has but the other version hasnt
an organ/synth riff by dizzy
you can hear it live and in the 99 version but not in the first version
Didn't notice this Dizzy's keyboard riff on IRS live, only Pittman's fx and orchestra... But yeah, the '99 version has pretty much those layers that the other demo don't.
I think Catcher sounds the least polished of them all, although it may have something to do with the poor quality of the recording that we have. IRS sounds almost complete, Better is probably a raw version (I get the feeling we'll have more guitar work added before the solo with that weird techno-spiral noise midway through), etc.
No, it's pretty much the other way around. IRS doesn't sound complete at all, while Better is a bit far from raw than you think. BurningHills said pretty much it all.
