    Side 2 has some surface noise during softer sections of tracks, but it's constant on that side. Still, overall, a good record, I grew up loving this album, so I gave it 4 stars, which would be a 5 star top shelf without the popping on side 2.

      I'm going through my collection to add to Discogs and I wasn't sure what to expect with this pressing being a "low price" version, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I've listened to this album for years (since bought new 10+ years ago), and I found coming back to albums now with much more knowledge about vinyl music, I'm often left disappointed in what was once acceptable. This was not the case here: this vinyl is well-pressed with a big, full sound. I don't pick up any additional instrumentation compared to a digital copy, but the music has more body on this record than my CD. Perfectly serviceable copy here.

        I have a couple of different Matador pressings to compare to and this one sounds very dynamic and open to my ears. No pops or skips on mine. Dead quiet other than glorious Pavement coming through the speakers. May have just gotten lucky. I have an older Thorens TD 115 turntable with Ortofon Super OM 20 phono cartridge. Not super high end.
        My version:

        No slipmat like Saturnin :-(

          Mine came with a Matador slipmat for the 25th anniversary.

            Based on the matrix runouts and weight, I have this pressing. But it sounds quite alright for me; zero noise and no skips. I just got lucky I guess? Curious how much better the 180g pressing sounds.

              Avoid this pressing. Mine pops all the way through the first side. General audio quality subpar

                Yep, this pressing sucks. Surface noise and terrible sound.

                  I believe I have this release, and it says Ole 079-1 on binding.
