    Yeah, I agree with everyone else here, this is a horrid pressing. It sounds compressed to the point of being unlistenable, especially in the heavier moments. Returned it and got the 2 LP version which sounds far superior. Easily the worst-sounding record I've ever had in my collection. A terrible pressing of a fantastic album. Seriously, I have bootlegs in my collection that sound way better than this

      I have bought about 30 records now, Appetite for destruction 2022 reissue is the only one that was without a doubt a disappointing sounding record. The sound is very closed in or compressed, bass is very weak. Result is that quality is reduced to tinny FM radio..

        straight trash it’s an absolute crime to have an album this good sound this bad

          Klingt einfach nur schrecklich. Keine Empfehlung für den Preis.Nicht gut!

            Don’t normally review. I thought this was going to be a great album. Sonically not very good—especially near the label. throughout the record the highs fatigue my ears. I tend to agree the “compressed” comment previously posted. Sounds like it’s all right between the speakers with no presence.

            I added the 180g remaster at Acoustic Sounds to my wish list.

              This release is probably from 2021 or 2022; Pressed in Czech Republic, it sounds good, but it suffers with some inner groove distortion towards the end, probably because of the playing time of each side (side A is 26min). Grab it if you can find it for a good price.

                Any opinions on the sound? Is it worth the money, please?
