Hey folks...
This is my neonatal delving into this group, so 'cheers' to all.
Not that I can expound a whole lot more on what Tj had to say in
regards to the re-rcording and mixing of the Fates Got a Driver
album, but I do belive it was in large part because of the name
change and even more so because of the maturation of their music as
a whole.
If any of you are fortunate to own a copy of the Split Lip release
great packaging if you do not own a copy, btw), it without question
resembles more so the David Moore of Split Lip as opposed to the
David Moore that morphed into his Chamberlain moniker. The early
release is definitely more on the raw side, as are the mixes, though
absolutely earnest and honest. If you think about it, having
followed Chamberlain through all of their growth, Moore's vocal
stylings have changed and matured on every single album that they
had released. It is quite incredible- keeps the music fresh and
sincere.
Take care, all.
