The question was about the sound quality, not about the music itself. Musically
speaking "Dopes" is indeed better, and of course it´s much heavier. The thing is
that it has an absolutely crap sound. In fact it´s so bad that I can hardly
enjoy listening to it. Same with all the albums before. And that´s why I prefer
to listen to "Powertrip" which at least is a very fine production.

Tastes vary anyway. But sound quality is a very important thing to me.
