Unfortunately, I can confirm the sound problems regarding "Iceblink Luck" & "Heaven or Las Vegas" too. Her voice hisses and is distorted on both tracks. The track after "Iceblink Luck" sounds damped, while "Heaven or Las Vegas" has the same audio probs as "Iceblink Luck" too.
Other than that, the rest sounds pretty fine and well-balanced, equipped with a stunning great clarity and depth. But "Heaven or Las Vegas" & "Iceblink Luck" ruin the otherwise fine impression of the pressing. Sadly.

Don't bother for the reissued vinyl. It sounds horrible and will take out any desire to listen to this amazing album through this pressing. Just go for the original CAD 0012.

I have an original pressing and it sounds very poorly mastered. The CD sounds better ...

I have an original vinyl pressing of this. Not played it in over 20 years though

Was lucky to get a really nice copy of this at a good price. Really great sounding recording. I cannot compare it to the reissues but this original is clear, dynamic, good pressing.

If you are a casual listener, the 2014 repress is fine. I don't find it awful by any means. That being said, I will say if you are a Cocteau Twins lover like myself, do yourself a favor and get an original pressing.
I found the 1990 US issue to be much more clear and crisp sounding. Liz's vocals come through significantly better and are more in balance with the music than in the repress. Overall a smoother listen and worth the extra $$, you will hear a difference.

Robyn compressed the sound on this release as sadly so many do on Remasters.

The sound quality for this repress is only ok. Very sibilant in parts. Also there is a noticeable hiss between songs. I bought mine from Amazon. I would also like to point out, when you listen to the MP3s that you are given with the included download card, "Iceblink Luck" is noticeably quieter and doesn't sound nearly as good as the other MP3s.

perfect copy as well. Very happy with the pressing. no pops, clicks, or high noise floor. Well done, and for $11.99 shipped on Amazon, highly recommended.
