Beach House – Once Twice Melody

SUBLIME ~ absolute beauty, a gorgeous master. Their unique production shines through perfectly.
One of my best sounding records.
A 1,5 hour dream of vinyl extravaganza.

Both discs of my copy sound great. No issues to report. If you are debating between this and the gold, the big difference is that the gold has coloured vinyl, an extra 24 page artwork booklet and 2 smaller posters different from the silver edition. IMO the poster in the silver edition is better than the ones from the gold edition. Besides that, this is a quality package with a quality pressing. Shoutout Beach House for making great music and delivering it to the fans in a quality way.

OK, it's not the collector's edition or the US pressing. The discs aren't even coloured! What a tragedy! On the other hand, for less than €30, this is an exceptional double album, and I have no complaints whatsoever, as the vinyls play a crystal-clear sound with no flaws whatsoever! And the contents are copious in terms of goodies and artwork. Any complaints? Yes, a gatefold would have been nicer, but honestly, if you're not sure about the sound quality of this record, go for it without a moment's hesitation!

U.O. still has some of these in stock at $34.95 but per the website supply is getting low. Check your local store too.

My copy looks amazing. One record is clear with red, yellow, green and blue streaks, the other one is more green with yellow and blue streaks

My copy is a lot more clear with way fewer swirls than the photos uploaded here already. It looks a lot more like the mockup just with different color swirls (red, blue, green, yellow) instead of the magenta, blue and yellow

i love this pressing, it was a nice surprise to see what it would look like in person. although it doesn’t look exactly like the mockup, it’s still extremely unique to my collection. love all the colors!! sounds great too, no problems with my copy. :)

Agree that this release sounds excellent and the albums layering really shines. I actually enjoy the color variant and find it to be unique. I don't have many albums in my collection that came out like this. For the people asking if they should pick it up, I'd say give this one a go.

Vinyl is thick and flat. A LOT more colorful than the mock-up for better or worse, I don’t mind it. Jacket and sleeves are high quality- thick, textured and embossed. The vinyl sounds amazing and really highlights all the shimmering layers and subtle bass undertones. As far as the music goes, it’s a beautiful album. highly emotive yet extremely listenable, no skips.

This pressing looks terrible in real life, nothing like the mock up
