I own Big Trouble in Little China and it sounds very good. It is dynamic and very clear sounding. I was actually surprised.
I think if you are truly crazy about vinyl you should have an ultrasonic cleaner. Its the only way you can truly get an LP clean and judge its sound its sound quality. You can get one for about $300 if you search the right places. Sure its expensive but if you spend thousands on LPs its a small price to pay.

All I hear from everyone who's ever owned a Mondo album is 'looks good, sounds bad'. There are so many fantastic soundtracks simply screaming to be released on vinyl; such a shame that Mondo seem be such large players in this field. I would just like the records with the original artwork sounding good - no gimmicks.

All I want from Mondo is a sticker on the shrink indicating the color of vinyl! Otherwise i'm pleased with all my purchases. I've never had a problem with shipping or quality on any of my records. All look great & sound excellent.

I would love to praise the hell out of this company for the visual and packaging department, but the actual vinyl presses are really not worth the price and it makes the record sound more a one-time very expensive play experience where you'd rather frame the record on the wall and just go for a CD or FLAC quality version of the same soundtrack. Some records like the Silent Hill one also don't even have the name of the original artist on the actual record.
tl;dr: Overpriced records with great art and covers but with mediocre pressing and sound quality.

Mondo sets the bar for poor soundquality pressings - why even bother if your not going to do it right.

Mondo is most notable for putting out great music with great cover art, albeit with mediocre pressings and poor quality control, and at an unfortunately high price.
If they just got their act together, they could be one of the best labels for soundtracks, but they just have way too many problems. Unless they offer something that you can't find from any other label, or if you really desperately want something they've done, don't bother with them.

This is for LOOPER double vinyl edition on Mondo:
Holy shit I did not believe it but its true what Mondo delivers here as "highest soundquality" is mediocre.
sounds like a bad bootleg and thats it what the pressing plant may usually do...why do such experts like Mondo work with such an grappy pressing plant?
No question the package / cover / design and soundtrack itself are great but I'm not sure if I want such a pressing in my collection.
Loud surface noise, endless cracklings, repeating loop noise with each turning, labels out of center,
bad drilled hole. Thats to bad.
Which other Mondo vinyls are like this ? are the new ones better ?
I allready have older OBLIVION, not really good pressing, but better as LOOPER luckily .

Only criticism I have for Mondo is either buy stronger mailers or start shipping the vinyl outside of the sleeves. Only company I repeatedly get seam splits from.
