AUDIO ONLY Private Remaster of Jawbox's second album "Novelty" from 1992.

I wasn't happy with the last Private Remaster I put on YouTube of this album so here is a new, improved (in my honest opinion) rework. So enjoy the tracks, your feedback is always appreciated!

Notes: First you got Husker Du's "Zen Arcade" and now you get Jawbox's second album "Novelty". It was their first long-player to feature second guitarist/vocalist Bill Barbot and was the last to feature Adam Wade on drums.

So why the private remastering treatment?

From the allmusic review for "Novelty", "The only negative aspect is Iain Burgess' murky production. Normally an outstanding producer, Burgess gives Novelty a bizarre din that frustrates in places. Adam Wade's drums sound a bit canned, and J. Robbins' vocals sound too "from the depths" on occasion."

Perhaps the din was a 'creative choice'? But I think it was a frustrating murk that made this great album sound veiled and almost powerless to these ears, or certainly not as hard-hitting as it should've been!

BUY THE ORIGINAL CD AND SUPPORT YOUR FAVOURITE BANDS AND MUSICIANS!

Good question. There certainly would be no Thirty Ought Six as we know them without that album.

My pleasure... it's a great album! Now that reminds me... why don't I own "Spiderland"...?!

This album, along with Slint's Spiderland was a HUGE influence on so many Portland bands in the early 90's. Thanks so much!

Reading the comments... back then mastering was still mostly done with the parameters of vinyl in mind. And then that same master would be (somewhat carelessly but costs were an issue for small labels) pushed onto a digital format. And the CDs suffered. The CD format, with the dithering, etc., needs its own master. That's all.

@needlearmor I think there's albums where that kind of murkiness works. Like you said, the layer of haze on "Aenima" and alot of other Tool music, is there to give you something to work through a you find new layers and sounds... But I just didn't get the murky choice for "Novelty", they were a hard rocking band and maybe it was a budget constraint, maybe they just didn't want the polish of "Nevermind", but it deserved to be heard in a different context...
