Reviews

Thermospore Jun 4, 2016
Typically I'm not a big fan of greatest hits compilations. However I don't really like Aerosmith albums as a whole, while I do enjoy their hits. Some people have been complaining about the dynamics being brick-walled. Some songs are worse than others, but it doesn't sound that bad to me. But who knows, maybe once I gain more listening expertise it will sound really bad. It will sound fine to the average person.
