Don’t know what all these people are raving about. I had the original 10 inch which I unfortunately had to sell because it was scratched but the sound on that was far superior to this. Clear and bright. This one sounds muddy in comparison. Obviously... See full review

My copy had that as well, so I got rid of it. Shame it hasn’t been reissued like the albums
Cornelius - Fantasma
posted a review of Cornelius - Fantasma. about 1 year ago
I think this is a dodgy pressing. I had the Fantasma remix double LP on coloured vinyl and it was basically unplayable due to loud background noise. Bizarre considering Japanese pressings are usually good, and he was probably the most famous singer in... See full review

Shoegaze was initially a pejorative term started by journalists. It did exist then but it wasn’t really used by fans. Indie rock was around as well but more often ‘indie music’ or ‘indie pop’

Both these reissues have been sped up which is so annoying as I don’t have pitch control. I guess the second reissue used the first reissue as it’s source. Somebody please put this out at the original speed!

Cover is so shit, it actually put me off buying it. Which is quite a feat because most of the music is dope

This record lhas nothing to do with Mbv. Their main influences were Sonic youth, jamc and the Cocteaus. Pale saints were influenced by it

Not a great sound is it, probably due to lack of master tapes. Kind of de-bollocked. Forgive french..better than nothing I suppose

Fire basically f’d these reissues up. I don’t know what happened but this one in particular sounds like doo doo. Seems rushed or something..trying to cash in, which is low, especially for a band like this

Their sound did develop with better production on tracks like ‘Room at the top (of the stairs)’ ps if you compare this version with the original, the difference is pronounced

Doesn’t sound great but just about do-able. Sounds like it was taken from a record. Funny kind of hiss that is just about negligible

Not a great pressing, kind of thin, muddy sound. Sounds like it was taken from a cd. Spelling mistakes on the back cover. Shell out on an original, if you can

I’ve got some of the originals and they sound considerably superior to this pressing which is muffled and kind of low grade. The originals sound clear and bright in comparison

Sounds good but a bit quiet and muddy. Prefer the original vinyl. But I lent it to someone around the time it came out and they destroyed it through adolescent neglect

Might be to do with the uncleared samples. Fleetwood Mac and Van Halen

Doesn’t say but I think it was mastered in Japan. A lot of the writing is in Japanese. It sounds great though, full bodied and clear. Probably superior to the recent rhino reissue which people seem to be raving about on the reviews but after hearing... See full review

Funny mix. Bass is so high you can’t really play it loud. Ridiculously loud bass pretty much ruins it

Something went wrong with this pressing. Kind of thin de -bollocked sound. Don't know how they managed to do it but the best track [moving through time] actually hurts your ears. The vibraphone distorts and it's just horrible. Slightly better than the... See full review

Profoundly unnecessary pressing. Horrible, unlistenable pressing. Was foolish enough to buy the gold version which was equally reprehensible. Ended up getting the cd which doesn’t sound great but significantly superior to this utter guano. Why oh why... See full review

Something went wrong with this one and I’m assuming the other comp. Bad pressing with muffled low grade sound. Dig out the originals and they sound much better.

Great selection, not the greatest pressing. Almost as bad as the Vergogna Shifosi coloured vinyl re-issue.
