My favourite LP of 2021!
Sadly, (even after a clean) my pressing is quite noisy.
BrendaBstar Apr 10, 2022

Really great dynamics on this pressing with some really heavy low end (especially on “Elephant Gun”). Not sure if it’s intended as a concept album but definitely has that feel to it. Really wonderful compositions by these two. Good stuff.

After cleaning with my special mix (50 % iso 50 distilled water snd 2 drops of dish detergent) and carbon fiber brushing with lots of anti stat gunning it’s spotless in sound. Brilliant! The record is still very dull and with marks though but hey it sounds great! Good luck

Might be the un cleanest record I’ve ever had from new. The vinyl is also dull and marked. Lots of surface noise and the dynamic range is pretty average compared to all the other records by Nick I own. Surely they must know how shit this pressing is? Great sleeve and inside design though lol

Have to say, mine arrived with terrible noise, as others have mentioned. Gave it a clean, but no improvement- sadly had to return.
Won't be risking it on the vinyl version again.

Was worried after reading other reviews, but my pressing is fine. Record was a little dirty, but after wiping it down I had no complaints. Plays well with only a couple of pops noticed. Really like the packaging, too.

Very happy with my pressing, save some very minor crackle right at the beginning of the first track. Other than that, bang on. And the sleeves (inner and outer) were spotlessly perfect. Very pleased.

Little a carnage

I am glad I took my chance to buy this record on Amazon after seeing so many people found the pressing issues. I find none on the contrary. The record is clean and sounds dead quiet, no surface noise except 2-3 crackles through the whole record. Usually I am very sensitive to pressing quality issues as I listen to my record with headphones.
