Top tier sounding record and one of the best I own! Would recommend buying!
This album is properly sublime. It was created to be experienced on vinyl.
The pressing is top tier. Just perfection.
Super quiet, and the sound is amazing! A solid recommendation.
Probably the best pop/electronic album I own from a sonic perspective. Really quiet high quality press.
Significant surface noise on side 3 (pops and clicks) on two different copies I bought. The first copy had 2 labels one on top of the other. Not a decent pressing and quality control is quite bad.- Beautiful all around. It left me really speechless.
All Ends With Beginnings. 
Wow! This pressing has left me speechless. Records were clean, no surface noise. There’s a richness that comes through, everything from the vocals to the production sounds superb.- Silky smooth, I just melt into the couch listening to this album. Great sounding copy
Side by side with the original press this sounds horribly over blown. Most noticeably on the final track. Originally ment to just ride under the line of distortion. The new press blows past it and sound like absolute trash in what is ment to be the climax.- Without a doubt the best-sounding record I own. A perfect pressing of a great album.
