Vampire Weekend ‎– Modern Vampires Of The City

A good pressing totally ruined imo due to the unbeareable noise during most of “Hannah Hunt”, which happens to be my favourite song of the album. Sigh!

If anyone had a copy of this album, but now only has the cover, I am willing to pay for the cover alone. I bought a copy of the LP but the owner did not have a cover, so I'm looking to bring it together. Message me if you're interested in selling!

Great sounding pressing! Nice and tight dynamics. Awesome label design too

My copy has some very loud pops during Obvious Bicycle, but is otherwise OK. Another less than stellar pressing from United.

This is one of the best albums released in the past ten years. That said, the vinyl pressings have thus far been absolute rubbish. Every copy I've played (and I've gone through about six on multiple players) has had a distinctive hiss in the left channel. The reason I listen to music in this format is because of how awesome it sounds. A flaw like this on a new pressing is unacceptable for me. I can't help but focus on that noise when I hear the record. So I'm just going to give up on this. If I were you, I'd wait a few years before investing, because it's a gamble if you're going to get a decent copy.

Awesome album yet the vinyl mastering/production is no miracle. I have the XLLP556 black version and it's a little hissy and has some surface noise. But overall it's OK.

My pressing has got a very nice sound, although it does have some pop and crackles during the quiet part of Hannah Hunt.
