When he was auditioning manufacturers, he found that many seemed not to care about the quality of their product. “When I played the original version from ’91, it sounded more exciting than all these cuts that I was achieving now,” he says. “[The companies] just make vinyl and they take advantage of the fact that 50 percent of people who buy it don’t even listen to it. And the other 50 percent are only getting into it for the first time. So you have a situation where only 25 percent of people can even tell if it’s crap or not.” Repeatedly during the interview, he points to the Beatles’ recent mono vinyl box set as one that was done right. (That said, he feels it may have fallen on deaf, or tone-deaf ears. “The average Beatles fan is a fool, to be honest,” he says. “They couldn’t tell the difference from a stereo or mono version.”)....

I still prefer the analog mastered reissue personally, (and that's what this record is: personal), but every version on every format sounds different. I think (apart from the dreadful Plain Recordings version) it's about zeroing in on YOUR preferred mix/pressing.

They are for the most part highly pitched, [45] although at times Shields sang the higher register and Butcher the lower. [46] According to Shields, because the band had spent so long working on the album's vocals, he "couldn't tolerate really clear vocals, where you just hear one voice", thus "it had to be more like a sound." [47] Butcher said of her "dreamy, sensual" style vocals: "Often when we do vocals, it's 7:30 in the morning; I've usually just fallen asleep and have to be woken up to sing." [39] To aid this effect, Shields and Ó Cíosóig sampled Butcher's voice and reused it as instrumentation. [48] The layered vocals on "When You Sleep" were born out of frustration with trying to get the right take. Shields commented that "The vocals sound like that because it became boring and too destructive trying to get the right vocal. So I decided to put all the vocals in. (It had been sung 12 or 13 times)." [28] He explained:
