I don't hear anything superb at all. Muddy and weak sound - to an extent that even the music loses its fascination. I'm completely disappointed with this version. I bought it because I did not trust MoV sources. But the MoV version definitely sounds better.

This version should also state 'bonus tracks' to differentiate it from the regular track listing versions.

I hate how this from 2022 sounds worse than the record from 2015 by music on vinyl. I'd rather spend my hundreds on a copy like that, rather than on a repress by iso/columbia. This one, compared to the MOV release, sounds weak, quiet and muddy. The other one is strong and almost sounds like a CD. The only upside on this one, is that it's got a cool gatefold and the cover print isn't pixelated like on the MOV one. This has to be a joke, because why on earth would they make buddha of suburbia a double LP album but not hours?? All other 90s albums got 2 discs for crying out loud. Do the same on hours

absolutely sexy pressing. I adore Music on Vinyl so much. This album doesn't just smell or look good, but they make the best sounding records ever. It even has better quality compared to the new 2021 reissue! Such a shame

Superb pressing, great sound. Couldn't be happier about this release which I desired for a long time.
The barcode that is embedded into the artwork leads to the CD version. Just in case you are thinking about using it to add this LP to Discogs.

I was never a great fan of this album on cd but the sound on this vinyl is great, the balance and dynamics make it a whole new experience. The booklet is nicely done, the print quality is excellent.
My only small niggle is that it is a bit noisy between tracks on side 1 other than that the pressing is perfect.
