5.0 out of 5 stars Remastered From Vinyl?, January 21, 2000

Great album, GLAD they reissued it, way ahead of it's time, same with Ludichrist (whom I SERIOUSLY wish would do a reunion tour) . . .stellar. HOWEVER, when I first listened to it, I thought "No way, they couldn't possibly have . . . ". All of those pops and hisses I was hearing. . . . but I picked up the latest edition of Metal Maniacs, and my suspicions were confirmed because another reader asked the same thing: "Life of Dreams" is remastered from VINYL.

Now some vinyl purists will argue that vinyl sounds deeper and more "authentic". Others will say it's a cheap cop-out. The reason for this is that sadly, the original masters for this album are apparently gone forever, and they had no choice but to go off of the vinyl edition of the album.

Still, this is one welcome trip down memory lane if you were a disaffected high school senior back in 86 - 87 when this came out. The Crumbs were never able to capture the magic on subsequent releases, but their unmistakeable sound shines on this one. Now if only SOMEONE would re-issue "Universe" by the Dead Brain Cells . . .THEN I'd be a happy camper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not too much better than this, December 17, 2000

Probably the best musicians to come out of the NYHC scene (although it shows a lot more on "B.O.M.B."), this record should be in all hardcore/punk fans collection. The re-release is decent, except for the fact that it was taken from vinyl and actually SKIPS in one song (Hub Run). That's pitiful.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most intense metal/crossover album, October 22, 2001

This blew me away when it came out, and it still does. Intense ripping metal/crossover up there with D.R.I.'s Thrash Zone. The Cd version I purchased from a few years ago (import) has both "Life of Dreams" and "Beast on my Back on one disc, and neither one was mastered from vinyl. Makes more sense since both lps are on the short side. This version sounds great and is worth looking for.
