60 Miles An Hour and Rock The Shack stop this being truly great, but I still like it a good amount. A step down from Republic but a step up from Sirens.

I'd recommend searching out the pre-mix / pre-release version of the album that includes some b-sides, and a better version of Crystal. There are a handful of incredible songs on Get Ready, but my all time favs from Get Ready are Primitive Notion and Vicious Streak.

one thing that did surprise me is the breakdown re the credits.there is a lot of studio personel involved as opposed to just one crew.surprising given that after the few listens, i think that the album has a very consistent sound.

Love the cover. Love Vicious Streak. Where can I find these rough mixes?

Found it on slsk last night -- looks like both the original leak and Power of Independent Trucking's mastered version are out there, as well as a companion disc of demos/early mixes.
