I would not usally ask questions about this kind of thing but is it me or are compression artefacts present on this track? Or is it just my iTunes pissarsing around? I bought the album digitally on day of release (FYI). I find that said noises are most prominent in the starting drum beats (0.00 - 0.11 seconds, they also continue throughout the song) and sound exactly like a low quality sample hence causing the metallic or mp3 bell chiming effect? Currently I do not have a CD to compare these MP4 files to, so was wondering if anybody is hearing the same noises on this particular track. I listened to the track talkthrough (on iTunes) and interpreted that Grohl sent H his tunes digitally, was wondering why H would include mp3 artefacts on a track that was recorded & mastered. Its left me utterly stumped and to me Run With The Wolves is the most skippable track on the album because it sounds like a 96kbs recorded mp3. I dont have any other issues with any other tracks on the album. I love the vocals on this track but the low qual drumbeats drive me insane and I just have to skip it. Am still waiting on vinyl album and 7" boxset. Not happy with recordstore to be brutally honest. Apologies for the essay, ese. Dave. |

They're on the CD too mate!! God knows why Liam put those effects on it. Makes it sound like a bad quality burn! |

I never noticed this and I'm generally quite picky with this sort of thing. What I did notice though are a few other minor things on different tracks. The "Hold It" part of TMTTH has a distracting low bass sound. There is a wierd extra noise on at the end of a few of the drum loops on the title track Invaders Must Die. Also the horn intro on Warriors Dance has a distant echo of what sounds like a distant drum or something when it loops. I only noticed these things off the actual CD on my hifi which picks up a lot of details. Not sure how much of these are intentional... |

a) Liam wanted to give the track a ''Raw'' feel. b) Liam wants to give the listener the impression that ''Electronic'' beats are harder than drum beats produced from an actual drum kit. |

That echo-sound on the horns on warrior's dance makes it sound more cool I think.. |

liams excuse for everything lazy he does; its punk rock 
the tone of the guitar sounds rubbbish, cut-off above 6khz or some shit. above all else, for me, worlds on fire has been murdered. liams made being tacky an artform the past 2 albums now, i like it up to a point.. n then its just silly. |
