To Ted's defense about "distorted", I have this CD and listened to it again really really really low, like close to mute and it is not a "distorted" print per say.. but so freakin loud that playing it at a normal listening level the speaker drivers can no way handle it...

I agree this is the loudest record I have witnessed yet without just straight up dipping out audio and breaking speaker fuses due to digital clipping.
