    This album also comes with a silver black and purple sticker. Very hard to find complete.

      Crazy good pressing here. I want to get another from Germany for comparison since this was pressed using plates from Germany so I think it should be the same. However, Japanese pressings are high quality on good vinyl and this one doesn't disappoint.
