I've got this too, it was actually re-recorded (not remixed) by Albini in
about 1999, I think. The band apparently was so unhappy w/ the original
production they felt it worthwhile to re-do this with Albini.
I agree, it's a much more in-your-face take on In Color, certainly makes the
Tom Werman production sound mega-compressed and wimpy. While I enjoy it, I
often wondered "what was the point"...re-recording a 20 year old album for a
project that will never see the legitimate light of day. I guess the band
was bored....
Haven't heard of Albini being involved in any other re-mixing projects for
the band.
