Original Title: TIL about the 'Loudness War' - beginning in the 1980s and peaking in the early 2000s, music producers and broadcasters increased the audio levels of albums and radio stations. As a result of consumer complaints, US legislators passed the CALM act which mandated maximum broadcast sound levels.
