Reviews
I was a big fan of Cradle in the late 90's, kinda lost track of them after Damnation and a Day, but I came back with this one on a whim, and I am more than impressed! I've been listening to a lot of Death Metal and Black Metal lately that's great in the moment, but doesn't really stick in my head. This album after two listens, and I had those riffs rattling around in my brain on repeat. I'm listening to it pretty regularly now and wondering if I've missed a few other gems since I've been away.

Sticker on image says Splatter vinyl. Format or description does not mention Splatter. Which version is it? If this is the Splatter edition it should be added to the description.referencing Existence Is Futile (2×LP, Album) 54161
This pressing sounds amazing!
Not sure that my neighbours would agree🤣🤣referencing Existence Is Futile (2×LP, Album) 54161
Very dynamic sound without clicks and pops. This is a very good pressing
This is a great records, best Cradle album since a long time in my opinion!referencing Existence Is Futile (2×LP, Album, Gold, CD, Album, Digipak, Box Set, Limited Edition) 54161-4
in my opinion the best cralde of filth album ever !- Mine is not glowing. Is there something wrong or are they all the same?
really surprised by the excellent sound quality. complete silence in pauses.- Grabbed the picture disc version.
Very beautiful... but awful crackings and surface noise for me ! Unlistenable !!! 
Sounds dead quiet, no surface noise/pops, and a good dynamic range!
