The remaster of Lift To Experience's 2001 album Texas Jerusalem Crossroads was released today and it sounds fantastic
My only complaint is that you can hear Josh a bit too clearly, it almost sounds re-recorded
i hope they didn't change the glorious pen n pixel cover
>>70776341
yeah seems like pic related is the new album cover
what is this? is this good?
>>70776360
wait the new one looks flashier than the original that's even better
>>70776413
yes its very good. It's a mix of shoegaze, indie and postrock with a story about the christian end of the world.
You should try it! the album cover is cool but many say that it does not represent the music very well
Looks like they're going with a Cash Money Records design style instead of 'middle-school Photoshop assignment' this time around. That's something, I guess.

literally the same thing
also you're thinking of No Limit not cash money
>>70776558
Ah fuck me I always mix those two up, sorry mew.
I just looked into this and it's weird that I've never heard of this before now. It looks like it got pretty much universal praise. I'm going to listen tomorrow
literally the best christian rock record in existence
not to sound cliché but: listen to it on acid, it'll change your world

The remastered cover is so unbelievably trashy, how could you not love it?
>>70776606
glad its getting more exposure!
it's well deserved - the album is fantastic
Came to /mu to see if anyone noticed the reissue.
Not disappointed today, /mu. Well done.
Unequivocally the finest christian rock album ever, and even describing it as such is a massive disservice. It's fucking transcendant.
I got to review it for a couple of magazines back in 2001 (I am an old cunt) and the original production blew me away, can't wait to dig into the remaster.
"Ladies and Gentlemen we are playing with one guitar"
Oh, and the redux of the cover is fucking hilarious.
I've been meaning to listen to this a long time.
I heard Just As Was Told and fell in love with it. Time to order it.

Is it worth it to pick up the old version and the new mix?
>>70776558
they weren't exactly exclusive to no limit
>>70778739
New CD came with a download code for both the remaster and the original mix, but the original album shouldn't be too hard or expensive to track down if you want it.
gonna need a link
THEEEEEEEEEEESE
THEEEESE ARE THE DAAAAAAAAYS
(Texas is the reason)

Where's the "PARENTAL ADVISORY" sticker
I remember listening to this shit for the first time like 8 years ago and being blown away, it's so fuckin' good. Really want to hear how they've changed the sound with the remaster.
I will absolutely never get over this album cover, it's so ridiculous
>>70783405
what would be a more "serious" album art?
The rest of the artwork tho

it is funny how the shit is actually a very solid album kek.
>>70783548
Oh my fucking god
Discogs and Wikipedia list Into The Storm as being 28 minutes, but my download has it at only 14 minutes. Have I been getting duped all these years with a shit download? The only version of it I see on Youtube is also 14 minutes.
More people need to hear this album. It is truly a religious experience.
>>70783575
this is some Govt Plates-level shit
>>70782977
I'd buy the digital version and upload it, but it wont let me on the label pages selling it. Must be getting hammered. Someone will upload soon. Until then, enjoy some porn!
>>70783660
kek Drowned in Sound gave the remaster a 10.
>>70783631
It's a lot of silence before a hidden track. You're not missing anything; the 14 minute version just has less silence.
>>70783685
Pretty much always has been a 10.
Oh shit, someone needs to get the 4x Vinyl box set and upload it.
>The Deluxe Vinyl Box Set includes the new double album, plus the original Lift To Experience EP from 1997 which was only ever released in Texas on CDRs and the previously unreleased classic John Peel session from 2001
>>70783756
I pre-ordered it, just waiting for them to ship. Shit looks amazing.
>That Chilean flag in the background
Why tho
>>70786159
it's the texan flag
>>70776226
Listening to this for the first time thanks to this thread. This is actually amazing.
>>70786159
that's a Texas flag...
I had never seen a shooting star before. Then I listened to this album, and I became one. 10/10
