Notes

Late 2022 or 2023 reissue pressed at a different pressing plant than OG and 2017 US reissue (see label photo and runouts).
221027 sequence in runouts identifies a master lacquer cut 27 October 2022.
Same barcode and packaging as previous pressings, therefore impossible to know which pressing without opening.

Issued in a gatefold sleeve with full-colour picture inner sleeves and a lyrics insert.

Mastered at Chicago Mastering Service.

    Dirty out of the shrink. Once that’s all cleaned off, this sounds amazing.

      Very dirty out of the package, with a scratch on Side D: However, this pressing is loud and lovely. I picked out some quiet details I didn’t notice before. I recommend

        I have a version that is almost identical to the release here, reads 221027 in a/b/c runouts, but side d reads 170726 and is same as "variant 2 - side D" from https://www.discogs.com/release/13343264-LCD-Soundsystem-This-Is-Happening.
