Digital Booklet
'It’s got all the thrumming guitars, kickstarted drums, and existential longing turned to seething joy that made indie rock in the mid-aughts so f--king enjoyable and so powerfully relatable." - Stereogum Better Nature is the fourth studio album by Los Angeles alternative rock band Silversun Pickups, produced by Jacknife Lee. It is the first of the band's albums to be released on their own label, New Machine Records; as well as their first to be supported by a Pledgemusic campaign. It is also the group's first album to feature a song under four minutes.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
