    Spectacular pressing, absolutely flawless. Why can't all be modern records be of such quality?

      Excellent pressing.
      The basses are a little too higher and the whole is a little less well balanced than my 1st French Substance but it's my opinion.
      All is clear and well detailed on this pressing. Records are perfectly flat and quiet.
      I recommend it if you don't want spend the money for a NM 1st press.

        Great pressing, dead silent, no cracks or pops. Excellent master, one of the most dynamic records I've ever listened to. Great for testing the hardware.

          Outstanding! Got the red and blue pressing and it sounds incredible. One of the best sounding records I own and I have a lot. Get this if you are a new order fan.

            A long wait for this reissue - thankfully it has been worth the wait. Very solid remaster - warm and well-controlled top-end. New Order records were never audiophile nirvana, but this compilation goes a long way to making things right. Pressing is dead-quiet and flat, something that often goes awry with coloured vinyl editions.

              Like everyone else said, dead quiet, nice thick vinyl, no noise introduced due to colored vinyl. Don't have an original press to compare it to but this sounds awesome to me and I have no regrets about hunting this down. Get it if you don't have it, you won't regret it.

                I initially got the black vinyl and it had pressing defects (warping and very loud, persistent surface noise on one track), so I returned it and got the red/blue, and I'm very glad I did, as it's much quieter and flat. Sounds great, too: bassier than the original (and has a bit of a higher-frequency bump too), but quite detailed, clear, and engaging.

                  Wow. WOW! This is the definitive pressing. I have the OG version on vinyl and this one is far more dynamic and mastered to nea perfection. A fantastic pressing.

                    Flat, centered, and DEAD quiet! Excellent pressing overall - super dynamic, separation (no mud), punchy AF, and giant soundstage. With my system, I could barely push a 1/3 power without nearly overwhelming my room...def a "hot" pressing that simply slams. Side C is esp draw droppingly good...always my fav part of Substance.

                    x3 pre-orders cancelled due to low allocations, found one in Germany! I echo others here...I am so f'ing happy that this legendary album that changed my life was properly reissued / remastered.

                      I love the sound and the pressing is nice *except* that it's visibly off-center. I need to listen more to determine there's audible warble (the chaotic instrumentation and effects makes it a little harder to tell for me) but I'm already slightly disappointed. Adding it to my growing pile of otherwise fine pressings that are marred by this one issue.
