Faith No More – King For A Day Fool For A Lifetime

My copy has the following matrix: X18637 1 45723-2 RE-1 01 M1S5 CI.

My copy sounds very good, no problems with this one

I was not blown away by this vinyl release. I found the sound slightly muddy and not terribly dynamic. The copy was in good shape when I received it, no playing issues but having had the CD I'd say it's about the same from a sound quality perspective. Not bad, but not one of those vinyl releases whose sound knocks my socks off.

Great packaging and sounding album. Really impressed with it. Lovely gatefold too.

Get the MoV version, it sounds quite a bit better than this version imo

The release date is in fact 2016. Can it be corrected?

Awesome version, deep, rich, detailed, dynamic. Punchy and tight bass. Great pressing. Not sure what the fuss is about when reading some other reviews of this version. I hear no sibiliance at all. And it's dead silent Maybe people should upgrade their systems and clean their records. Not everyone is a fan of how they add bonus tracks, but I think it just adds value to the package.

Got this today in mint condition in my local record shop. Sounds amazing, super-detailed, rich and dynamic. Bass is deep and tight. Record is dead silent. Can't hear any sibilance at all that one other user wrote. Just an awesome version and pressing. But not all are fans of the way they added the extra tracks and not staying true to the original format. But I don't mind, to me they just add to the value.

Cover Art Reproduction: A+ Very Shiny and Glossy.
Sound: A Sounds better than the CD but not different
Wax: A+ Nice work by the folks down in QC

Fanboy Comments - The last track is worth the price of admission alone. Sinatra at the start then bam we're in Church at the 2:00 remaining mark. Is that a choir? "Every night I'll shut my eyes, but now I've got them open wide." A gospel choir?
A prime example of the Faith No More trickery. We could write boring hit songs all day. So we don't, but.... every once in a while we will show you everything.
"I dream about a cloudy skyyyy, a cloudy sky, WOO! a cloudy sky. OWW! a cloudy sky. That's what I say."
Perfect fade out.

Just finally got my hands on a Near Mint copy of this 1st pressing and it sounds glorious! My only (minor) complaint is that I wish there were printed inner sleeves or an insert but even so this is a must have.
