In what initially appears to be good marketing, but is actually a recall, Dinosaur Jr. is recalling European versions of their recent, critically acclaimed album Farm, due to a software glitch which increased volume by 3dB, thereby making the album too loud.

The band posted this:

Pease note that on the European CD version of the Farm album there is an audio problem. This occurred while duplicating the original master in a duplication studio. The problem occurred when the duplicate was produced, as the software program used for this duplication 'doubled' the sound layers. This resulted in a 3dB increase in the overall sound volume.

You can find more information via their European label, PIAS.
