Thanks!.... So Sony wanted to make it pink, so Jeff or whoever decided beige would be better? If that's how it went, PJ is still to blame, lol. Either that, or Jeff can't see colour properly and thinks beige is a pinker shade of red, haha.

Binaural, Riot Act, Avocado re-issues, 7" Singles

Release Date November 10th

Our previous email indicated that Binaural, Riot Act and Pearl Jam (Avocado) had been remixed by Brendan O'Brien and remastered.

In fact, only Pearl Jam (Avocado) has been remixed. All three titles have been remastered.

Check out the six re-issued 7" vinyl records here.

I like both to be honest, but the original is iconic in my brain. Always will be.

Does this mean Avocado might actually sound decent for once?????  I realize BoB doesn't have a good remix reputation but the original is awful

Unfortunately, when i see the name brendan o'brien on this stuff it scares me off. He has an extremely heavy hand in the way he guides PJ, produces PJ, and mixes PJ. I'm glad to see some early indications that these will be double LPs, but i wish the band would work with someone with a "less is more" recording, mixing, mastering and lacquer cutting touch and have everything pressed at a proper plant. And why do Binaural or Riot Act need to be re-mixed? I feel like the band has little regard for it's archives and doesn't show much interest in putting out the best possible sounding music as possible. 

To my ears, every PJ vinyl except for the original Vs, Vitalogy and No Code (i haven't heard vinyl of Binaural and Riot Act) sounds thin and lacks any fucking balls. 

I have an original Yield LP and that sounds like garbage as well. And the re-issue isn't much better. Bummer, cause that album is top 2-3 for me.

There was a mistake made in the item descriptions of Binaural and Riot Act vinyl.
Binaural and Riot Act are remastered, but not remixed.  Only "Avocado" is remixed and remastered. 
Sorry about that, my bad.

Really no reason to remix Binaural.

It is a perfect release in the OG pressing.

Remastering also makes me nervous.   The older the album, the less it was exposed to the loudness war.  Modern mastering isn't that great.   Everytime I see a band reissue an album as "remastered" I get a little bummed out.   Binaural came out in the earlier years of the loudness thing, but I'm not sure it would benefit from modern mastering methods.

Brickwalling should be a crime!

word and word...........

hope they don't mess it up. would be nice for good sounding affordable copies to be available.

I remember when remastered was something to look forward to.  The last remastered albums that sounded really great were the recent 2017 NIN reissues.  Let's hope these sound as banging on vinyl as they should.

Buy the new QOTSA record instead 

This.  Yeah, a band actually doing things in the here and now.  Sorry, this like my 5th thread today featuring my vents.  I'm sorry.  It just pains me to see this band turn into this merch machine.  We have Backspacer and Lightning Bolt to show for the last ten years... oh, and a whole lotta nostalgia.  

LB is so far above BS it's not even funny.

Nami

Im happy for the reissues...  these 3 i dont have and will gladly pick them up.  Then I just sit and wait for new music.

Odd They show a new Binaural cover layout in the first pic, but in the subsequent pics its the original.
Edit* Same with the other two albums

I have a question regarding the new Ten release. It says that is the original mix.

Is one of the lp in the super deluxe box set of Ten is also the original mix?

Thanks. Good news for my wallet. I'll keep this $20 to help me pay for the shipping fee of the other reissue that I don't have

I might buy the new Ten reissue, because the only one I have is the beige one. I'd like one with the original looking cover, jusat because I really hate the beige one. I don't know what they were thinking with that. Like, "hey, what about the colour? Wanna change it up? .... How about a nice neutral, earthy tone, like the walls in that apartment I had back in 2002?"

Agreed!  I absolutely hate that cover.
I'll be buying the ten reissue of the original cover, and albums 6-8.
Lots of new pj vinyl will be coming in the mail over the next several months!
