not quite the pressing i hoped it would be. both records were warped, second record was off center. a little disappointed overall, but i like how it sounds despite the mixing being loud.
An album with terrible audio quality. A lot of distortion, little precision, there is noise, it sounds low. I prefer to continue listening to the album from 1995 (CD). I do not recommend that you waste your money on this copy, avoid it as much as possible.
This isn't anything that hasn't been said before, but the quality on this is impeccable. I was kind of reluctant to buy it at first but there's so many excellent reviews I couldn't resist. Only complaint is I feel it could stand to be a heavier weight. Plus, you can buy this at Walmart, which is endlessly amusing to me.
I agree with previous commenters, sound quality is astonishing, I believe I've never heard Hedgehog's dillemma with this amount of detail, it's really a treat. Just change those paper sleeps as soon as you open it to preserve this work of art.
Absolutely stunning sounding record! Loud, deep and vivid, this blows the original CD out of the water (that one also has stellar sound, mind you). Beware some scuffs from those terrible paper sleeves, mine needs a good clean. A true "premium" release more akin to the japanese 2015 pressing would have been welcomed, but this is still an excellent release.
