Was listening to Nirvana's In Utero and noticed something on the track "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter". youtube link
It sounds to me like Dave Grohl's snare drum has this weird "popping" sound in the mix...like just a slight little high-frequency "pop" you can hear every time he hits the snare drum. (Seems especially strong around the 3:00 mark) What causes that sound exactly? Clipping? Some kind of compression? Just wondering...seems like a strange sound to me...I just hope someone else can hear it and I'm not going crazy/deaf.
PS I was listening to it on iTunes (mp3 file) so it's not just youtube.
Thanks
