Low – Hey What

Does anybody else have severe crackling and popping on their copy? I’ve cleaned it 3 times and it won’t go away. Looking at it there appears to be no dust, scuffs or scratching, record looks NM. But crackles heavily

I love the album and I was very disappointed by the vinyl version, because some songs are edited to fit in. I prefer the full digital version :(

I listened to the digital version of this album for months, often thinking about how much I would enjoy having a physical copy. A few tracks are a bit shorter on the physical release, and I much prefer them to the digital versions. The other commenters hit the nail on the head with pointing out how great this sounds. There was clearly a lot of care put into mixing and pressing this record, it's a real joy to listen to.

These just got restocked on the Low web store: https://low-us.myshopify.com/collections/frontpage/products/hey-what-a-visual-film-by-shane-donahue-vhs

My copy is sealed, with the hype sticker. But it's definitely not signed (unless the signatures are on the inside of the gatefold). Anyone else have this?

Yeah this sounds insanely good. I had the honor of seeing this album performed in full at Sled Island 2022, and was shocked at how the guitar on this is played through a tiny 6-or-less watt amp. Sounds massive.

Holy. God.
Everything you hear about this pressing is true. Unreal, it feels as though Alan and Mimi are harmonizing in your very room. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard instruments sound this clear out of a record. The loud distortion and experimental flourishes in this album threaten to blow apart your stereo with this pressing. This is no exaggeration, I don’t own any sort of surround sound or anything but I can almost hear the music swirl around and place itself within the room when I play this album. This is probably as close as you can get to being in the actual studio with these two musical geniuses. This is a brilliant, gorgeous album and this pressing sounds better than most Mofi, acoustic sounds, or any other “audiophile” recording I’ve picked up. All for a measly 19 bucks or so. THIS is why I collect vinyl. Even if you are sort of ambivalent concerning this album, grab this record and you’ll fall in love with it guaranteed. Nothing, I mean NOTHING can prepare you for the way it erupts out of the speakers, with a clarity and fullness so powerful you think you’ve reached the gates of heaven as soon as they start singing. Pure, unfiltered beauty in glorious analog.
Buy it. Listen. Weep.

Great pressing and it's Low. Great combination.
