Rapid Eye - Stealing Beauty release = Mono

I'm quite shocked that no one's actually mentioned the fact that this release is MONO! I didn't realize it because I wasn't really paying attention to it but the tracks always sounded "dull" for some reason, till I opened them up in Sound Forge. Both of the mixes that were on the promo are mono.

This is probably why it sounded so average to most.

I know what the rules say, you dont have to preach them to me. I just find it highly irregular that they would "rip" something in mono unless the source was mono. So does anybody here actually have the vinyl and can confirm this?

The vinyl was OK, just the original rip was in mono, which was then replaced by the same group with a stereo version the following day.

The first release of Tiesto's album had a few tracks in mono, so it's not something that hasn't been done before.

The vinyl I have, sounds exactly the same. Even the pour sound quality on the kid vicious mix! :{
