The sound quality is not great, but the energy is there!

That's very typical of Ruins. Unfortunately, while Yoshida is a master drumemr and composer, he is a pretty crap producer. It's really a shame, and one of the reasons while Ruins are so much better live than on CD. "Burning Stone" has a great, thick rock sound, and also "Tzwomborgha" sounds surprisingly good. But most of the others have some problems, in my opinion. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
