Decent pressing, mediocre mastering with at least one thing to compliment, as it has a really nice separation (Cornerstone sounds lovely).
What I don't like here, though, is the lack of dynamics and some sketchy EQ. Some songs suffering more than others (Potion Approaching and The Jeweler's Hands), but nothing majorly disappointing most of the time,, just unimpressive. The final tracks on each side appear to have been purposefully toned down so it wouldn't have any clipping, I'd assume. They both have clearly less volume than the former tracks.
Almost no clicks or pops, so it makes, a fair addition to the collection regardless.
