question(s) about unicorn

Firstly, sorry if this has been asked/posted before but I couldn't find it anywhere.

I just purchased Unicorn's 93 and 95 albums ('ever since' and 'emotional wasteland') and was curious as to how many copies of these albums have been made? Also, does anyone have information regarding Unicorn's demo tapes as they seem to get a good wrap.

How do you guys rate these albums? Favourite songs?

Cheers guys.

I love both Unicorn albums, with Emotional Wasteland being among Dan's best. I only wish they had better production. Maybe one day, Dan will re-record them with his current vocals. He's never sounded better than he did on White Darkness.

The production on "EW" is fucking BOSS.

I also think so!
Allthough like Dan said, the piano sound and stuff could be better, it's still really good sounding. Also the vocals are top notch I think.
But I always loved the EW production in general

You guys think the drum sound is good on Emotional Wasteland? Interesting.

Well it sounds like a good natural drumkit. It could use some more compression and the cymbals are a bit too loud and dynamic. But other than that I like it

I love that song. Uplifting and sad at the same time.
