Appetite, Lies, UYI, and TSI re-released as Super High Material CDs in Japan

[Howard2k]

It's a higher quality CD.

But if it's not re-mastered I'm not sure I'd bother.

[Limulus]

again:

keep in mind its probably only extracted from the allready existing cds not new transfers from the single master tracks! reasons: no official word from the gnr camp about it. and its a japanese only release and those japanese re-re-releases mainly have been proven to be made for $$$ only. the "only-1-month"-order backs this up, too.

this also would mean the circulating cds used still are the best sources for us not any equalized and edited $$-release.
about remastering i also posted some stuff above.

I wish they would release the Use Your Illusion albums in surround. Some or even most of the tracks were recorded in Q-sound so they've got the sources.

Best Buy has listed these CD's as 12/3 release in US, available for pre-order...can someone explain what 'SHM' is vs. my 'old' copies?  Non-technical...will I hear the difference???  What justifies the $40 price?

the GNR SHM-CD back catalogue that came out over there (Japan) on the same day as Chi Dem.

anyone know if the cd's are remastered?

also, does anyone have experience with SHM-CD's? how are they?

[Pandora]

All I can tell you is that on Chinese Democracy, the bitrate is exactly the same as on a regular record. So if there's a difference, I'd like to know where it's hidden.....

[GNRreunioneventually]

whats the fuckin difference?

[Dead N' Bloated]

If this has been posted Im sorry but I hadnt seen it yet.
