Also, get the fucking pic out of your sig. Do not replace it with any other pic.
I meant in comparison. Lo-fi does not equal to something being of shitty quality, but when you compare it to Silverstein's cover you can't argue that their production is "better". I hope you have a really smug smile on your face when you write online without even thinking about what you're saying.

Lo-fi is actually a term with a meaning behind it.

Yes, you can actually argue that a recording using a studio as a studio and not throwing in every trendy gimmick and making a recording sound dated instantly is indeed a better recording.

Why did you feel the need to write that last sentence in your post? I am seriously asking. I actually do know quite a bit about record engineering. Enough so that I can already tell you know absolutely nothing about it. So why did you add that last bit in there? You thought it wasn't going to make me call you out on your shit? What was I going to say? "Oh snap, he must know a lot about what he's talking about because he said that, despite the fact he doesn't know lo-fi is a real term and thinks a compressed to shit "turned-up-to-eleven" recording with no cymbal transience, flavour-of-the-month digital voice effects, and at least one guy in the studio who said to the engineers 'put some more cinematic on it' is better than one that actually had dynamic range. He showed me!"

if i'd have heard this back when i was 17, I'd be raging almost as hard as Pete is at that swedish dude right now. Pretty mediocre cover.

I really don't give a shit about their cover one way or another, just this guy's nonsense about the original being "lo-fi".
