Great album indeed, meant to be heard on vinyl. This is an excellent pressing, full frequency, quiet, great imaging.

Got some no fill issues near the end of side B but not a huge issue. Dynamics are quite good.

Great Pressing and a wonderful album! bought this on sale and it is definitely worth the money. In my opinion even better than their first

Should have pressed to 3 sides and an etched D side. Otherwise, a great record.

I ordered a copy of this record from District Lines. The sound quality on my copy compared to even streaming the track on Spotify is atrocious... the vocals are blurry, playing as if they are spoken through an old radio transmitter. Constant crackling. Gonna stick to playing this album digitally until I grab a new copy someday.

Sound is great, no pops or cracks (Rega P2, Carbon Cartridge). This is one of my favorite all-time albums, huge Fleet Foxes fan.

An album with sentimental value
Presented in a carefully pressed and mastered double lp gatefold

The sounds alone will tie the room together

The poster helps too.

One of the early installments to my collection

A perfect album for a quiet Sunday afternoon
Or Late night reading

Picked this up at a record fair in Seattle at the Sub Pop label table for $17 dollars last year, no joke.
