- This 24-bit 96kHz remaster (Qobuz), coming 40 years after its debut, sounds amazing. There's no ear daggers or boomy bass to contend with. I probably play this much louder than I should ;)

this edition has a textured sleeve though it's not embossed.- Beautiful pressing, detailed sound, very quiet vinyl, no inner groove distortion. Quality jacket and booklet. Absolutely recommended.

Great sounding pressing of the Buzzcocks second album. Production-wise, I think it is stronger than their first LP. Also has a bunch of very strong songs such as "Ever Fallen in Love", "Nostalgia", "Just Lust", as well as others that may take a bit longer to appreciate. A must-have for any Buzzcocks or pop-punk fan.- Why can't ALL new vinyl be like this? NO dust, NO pops, NO clicks! Packaging is faithful to the original but with added extras. A solid release all round.. SQ is good. It's so close to my original copy so as to be unnoticable (just less crackling!). A really great addition to my collection
