    This one pressed way better than Cavalcade. Vinyl is flat and silent. Only limitations are from the recording itself, I believe.

      Record is excellent, great Flexi too. Has anyone else noticed that the end of “Still” sounds different on vinyl compared to streaming? I’m not referring to the locked groove, I’m saying it sounds like an extended, more cinematic sound as it ends.

        i ordered on bandcamp an it was supposed to be transparent red but i think i got this one. sticker included.

          I was shocked by the flexi. There was a definitely couple pops towards the middle but other than that sounded sweet. I’m sure it will wear down being a flex and get worse over time. As for the album this might be my favorite of their albums so far. It is just so odd and sounds like the standard progression for this band… be stranger and stranger. My red record sounds incredible on my system. I would say that it is far more opaque than transparent but the sound quality is what matters and it is an ace copy for my collection!

            Phenomenal pressing! The vinyl is dead flat and silent—perfect mastering and dynamics. The flexi 7” is the best quality flexi I’ve ever heard. Overall an awesome release—highly recommended!
