Eno was experimenting with "The Big Room" sound—massive, gated reverb and delay throws. On "Once in a Lifetime," the water-drop synths and the cavernous reverb on Byrne’s vocal delivery are critical. A 320kbps MP3 smears these transients. A 16-bit/44.1kHz FLAC (or the rare 24-bit/96kHz high-res version) preserves the decay of those reverb trails, placing you inside the studio rather than listening through a telephone.
Side two of the album shifts into more atmospheric, haunting territory. The Great Curve features dizzying vocal overlays and blistering guitar work that requires the clarity of a high-bitrate file to avoid harmonic distortion. As the album closes with The Overload, a dark, industrial-leaning nod to Joy Division, the deep low-end frequencies and industrial drones are rendered with a weight and authority that only lossless audio can provide.
