This is my third copy of this record, and every one has the same issue on the 2nd disc, some really bad crackling sounds on the songs "Immortal", and "The In-Between". I has hoping it was just a problem with a few records but I have to conclude it must have been a bad stamper as they all have the same problem. It's a real shame as I really like the album. Its not a total blow out as the first record sounds pretty good. Just giving everyone a heads up.
