Sleater-Kinney – The Woods

It's very difficult to tell whether this is a "good" or "bad" press overall, because of the distortion in the recording. The drums pop well, and there is minimal surface noise.

Really nice remaster, a big improvement over the OG pressing which pretty much sounds like a CD

great pressing. don't have a reissue to compare but this is clear and punchy and cranks up really well.

It’s an OK pressing.

Lots of surface noise even after good cleaning.

Mix WAY too much high end.

Great pressing and mastering. Slightly more dynamic than digital, but a veil has been lifted off the mid and high frequencies and is overall better balanced.

Great release. Nice gatefold. Plastic inner sleeves that are nightmarish to get back it but still nice. Great sounding record as well. My favourite Sleater Kinney just because of how brutal it can be. Full of quite deranged guitar work. Ace

Not a fan but the loudness levels of this cd are ridiculous. Perhaps an attempt to bypass the need for a preamp!?

the packaging on this is very solid, not uninspired, perfectly adequate and pretty damn sturdy, it's nice they stretched it out across 3 sides since it allows for better sound rather than compressing it onto 2 sides.

Weak package with uninspired gatefold/ insert artwork and some of the crappiest plastic sleeves I've ever seen. Also, it's one of those "double lps" that only has 3 sides, short ones at that. They really couldn't fit this on a single platter? The artwork on the 4th side is also has to be THE most uninspired I've ever seen with one of these 3 sided deals. All these complaints aside, the vinyl sounds great, sounds like the way the album was meant to be heard. I'm glad to have it in my collection, I just feel the band deserves better package- wise.

Perfect. The mastering, the pressing, the package... Everything. Highly Recommended
