    Naast boygenius tot nu toe het beste van 2023. Prachtige samenwerkingen en wonderschone nummers die hoe meer je ze luisterd binnenkomen.

      Disappointing pressing. Crackle on first track is very distracting. Sound seems distorted and sibilant at times. Clicks and pops throughout.

        I have the "Records pressed in Thornbury, Australia by Program Records" Red coloured vinyl variant. No listing for that release yet. The Aussie pressing is flawless. Perfect pressing. No noise, flat, dynamic. Sleeves and printing are also top-notch.

          Anyone got a little review of the sound of this pressing?

            Very nice pressing. Tiny, tiny bit of surface noise after a wet wash, nothing worth complaining about. Much better instrument separation than digital versions. Very happy to have this. One of those pressings that just wants to be played very loud. Sorry neighbours.

              Non-fill issues on first track side B. Otherwise decent pressing.

                  Superb album itself, but bad quality pressing. First two tracks on each side have a loud popping throughout. The rest of the album is clear.

                    There's some very minor ticks near to the start of side one, but side two is pretty much silent.

                      My pressing is flat without major pops, clicks or whatever. Would rate the dynamics 4/5, could be way worse.
