That's an upscaled 320kbps mp3.

Downloaded this one from the link Decipher & Shinra gave @ their facebook-page back then so i guess there's no real lossless available :(

I seem to have checked the mp3 in the same folder accidentally. Sorry for my wrong suspicion, xs-hard.

I don't see any signs of lossy/mp3 compression, just a bit early (but smooth, like bandwidth reserved/used by a resampling algorythm) frequencies' drop at the 22 kHz limit

If you have Discogs account you may enter edit history page of this release and check free download link, it still works after almost 8 years. If you don't have Discogs account, here's original link to file originally uploaded by artists.
Edit. Original file (uploaded by Shinra) and xs-hard's file have the same CRC-32, so xs-hard uploaded proper file.

Only need the original cover from Facebook, not the WAV file.

If there was a better cover then probably discogs would've got the usual resized down to 600x600 image. Got the same 480x480 tho, only with a bit different jpeg settings. It's like ~33 KB, even less than discogs' one. But discogs reencodes even small-sized images and with lossy jpg as source this just increases file size to get even worse image - reencoding treats initial jpg artifacts as extra data and part of the original image and adds new ones

That's the one I want and xs-hard uploaded above.

I'm just not 100% sure that's the one xs-hard uploaded, usually old facebook ones are overcompressed 960x960 (and that happens to be exactly 480*2). Tho my flac file's definitely sourced from his upload here so I don't see the reason why I would've bother to change the cover (esp. to this low-res one) if I found it worthy to keep at all

U can try to message xs-hard ofc, otherwise post if this one's ok for you and reup request can be closed or not
