Best sounding version of this album for sure!! I’m usually not a fan of glitch electronic type music on vinyl, but this sounds great. Nice crisp and punchy sound.
-
Came with a slight tear on the front (under sealing…) and two cheap inner paper sleeves. Packaging quality is pretty low even more considering prices. However sound quality is perfect. Each track sound crisp and could be listened super loud. A must have for any fan.
-
would definitely prefer a gatefold for this but the records came in with little to no warp and relatively clean. certainly the best way to listen to this album, just get some proper inner sleeves for these babies.
-
new store copies were both warped and scuffed to shit from the packaging i assume. BUT it sounds so fucking good and it's so loud that its not even an issue
-
I was initially concerned if this would be any good due to how low-quality the packaging is (thin jacket with two LPs stuffed inside, cheap paper inner sleeves), but this thing plays beautifully. Sounds as crisp and dynamic as this album can be, play it loud.
-
I can confirm that this pressing sounds amazing! It`s the best-sounding version of this album I`ve heard. My discs were perfectly flat but had just a bit of surface noise, but at this point, I think it is impossible to get a perfectly clean modern pressing(maybe I'm just unlucky). Even at 50 bucks I still believe its worth it
-
Nothing wrong with my copy, sounds okay, but for me personally, this style of music doesn’t really translate well to the Vinyl format. I’m glad I got it for retail price and not $150 like it was 2 weeks ago lol.
-
Lucky me it seems. First time lucky (for once). Perfect copy. Cover arrived safe and sound. The records are flat, dead quiet and have no scratches or marks whatsoever. It's also noteworthy that the vinyl seems to be 180g – and I am surprised that's not mentioned anywhere.
-
The QC on this was awful. I've seen three different copies that have label defects and surface marks on th discs. Sounds good at least.
-
Edited 3 years agoLol at the fools that paid $100+ for this release. It's literally just a single LP sleeve with two records stuffed inside with the cheapest white inner sleeves ever made. There is literally nothing to the packing. Just simple black LPs. I just got it from Tower Records for $23 and it sounds fantastic. Never thought I'd own this one.
There's also a really cool bonus track. It's a remix of Air War that's tacked on at the very the end. Never heard it before, what a cool addition!
