I'm so sick and tired of the vinyl industry messing with consumers...they totally fool us with "limited edition" pressings when in reality are not limited at all...hundreds of thousand of copies pressed and they tell us is "limited", we fall for it, overspend for a pre-order with ridiculous shipping prices and then there's plenty of copies on line at cheaper prices.....
mietersemichiel Nov 29, 2023
After reading the US version is cut by Kevin Grey and the EU version is not, im glad i ordered a US copy.

Also no issues on Daysleeper in my copy.
devito.mark Nov 22, 2023
Sounds great, very happy with this release.

I cleaned mine twice before spinning it after seeing a few comments. No issues here after those two cleans, so for anyone having issues try cleaning before spinning it.

Playing it now. Quite a lot of background noise and crackles during Suspicion right now. Disappointing.
Marco-Van Nov 18, 2023
Some sort of pressing fault on Daysleeper, sounds absolutely horrible. The rest of the record(s) sounds really good though.
aschwenk Nov 16, 2023
Anyone else get a copy with some sort of defect on the first record? Right about the middle of the record, there's a consistent skipping sound and I've tried cleaning the album with no luck.
danceyrselfdean Nov 15, 2023
My copy came pretty dished but thankfully doesn't seem to be an issue, plays good and this new master sounds excellent.
spookydux Nov 14, 2023
Such a great album. Fantastic remaster and great pressing. A gatefold would have been nice, but it's the music that matters and this LP is quiet, flat and full of life
stevethewire Nov 12, 2023
Excellent pressing and an incredibly well-done remaster. Sounds open but very punchy at the same time. Highly recommended.

Not only a beautiful looking record but sound and pressing are equally great.
An underrated REM lp. I love it and I’m thrilled to have this.
Also big kudos to REM for not making this 10 bucks more cause its on green vinyl. Like so many greed heads do.
REM still righteous long after they have to be. Are you listening Paul McCartney?
