        Decent sound on the vinyl, though there is still some lower midrange congestion, probably due to excessive compression. This is not a small thing - the sound on "Playing the Angel", in many ways a superior album, is almost ruined by a horrible gargling lower mid/upper bass. Guitar sounds on "Playing the Angel" are intolerably grainy. Luckily this vinyl of "Sounds of the Universe" sounds better than the vinyl of "Playing the Angel", if far from perfect. When I think about the fantastic audiophile sound on their earlier albums and 12" I could cry. Where did we go wrong?
