Title: both the 1997 and 2008 release stink
Product review: Why Helios Creed didn't push for higher quality control, I don't know. The music is excellent as is typically the case with Helios Creed but if you buy any version of the album prepare to be screwed. The 1997 CD won't play on a computer! Why? Was Cleopatra that ahead of the downloading and CD copying game that they refuse to let me play it on media player? And the 2008 version is recorded with glitches and skips! I thought my CD was scratched but that's how it was mastered! I haven't heard the LP version but read that it also contains the skips! The only benefit is that if you never listen to CDs on the computer, it shouldn't make a difference with the old version while the reissue contains three neat bonus tracks which sound fine I suppose. But come on, this is a professional release. There should definitely be a recall but since the indie scene isn't dominated by Chrome/Helios Creed fans, I feel you're just gonna have to get shafted.
