Notes

Shrinkwrapped, most with transparent sticker on top stating "Special Edition Triple Vinyl - 3 x 180 gm - Original Album Remastered - 88985388501" plus "We Are Vinyl" sticker stating "Claim your download at wearevinyl.com"

First 500 orders from Leftfield online store were autographed by Neil Barnes & Paul Daley before the shrinkwrap was added and most had a different barcode sticker attached over the barcode / label / catalogue number info on the back.

    Clear. Punchy. Great sound. A must have for anyone who loves that 90s roll last forever vibe!

      These prices are getting absurd, I saw these for MSRP at record stores around a year or two ago. Either some weirdness is going on here, or it needs a repress.

            Stunning remaster and pressing, I've always thought of Matt Colton as the Porky of today and this pressing proves that. I agree with others about Cut for Life, prefer Song of Life myself, but it's a small price to pay for such a stunning remaster.

              anyone know if Release The Pressure contains the uncleared sample that the original 3xLP version had?

                Amazing remaster. I'm just a little upset it's the alternative version of Song of Life. I personally like Song of Life more then Cut for Life.

                  It sounds great - loud, clear and no noise to speak of. I would, however, have preferred the tracks in the same order as the 2LP and CD versions. OK, there's the extra track, etc, on this version but I was used to the "flow" of the 2LP format. Guess I'll just have to get used to them both.

                    how is the mastering on this? have heard mixed reviews so far. Some people say its mastered a bit too loud and clips. Any body compared it to the original 3LP or even the original CD. The WAV download version of Leftism22 is brickwalled.
