Reviews
- Edited one day agoMy copy is terribly warped and dished. Yet another shoddy pressing for a record by The Smile. Where is the quality control at the pressing plant? Just despicable... And moderator: why did you remove my prior comment? Because I used the word "shit"? It's an appropriate word for the quality of the pressing...
Optimal did it again, my copy is clean as a whistle and dead quiet, sounds fantastic! Lovely little single, I particularly dig the krautrock influenced The Slip. My only complaint is that they didn't do this at 45 RPM, there's a lot of unnecessary deadwax left.
My copy sounds excellent. No issues whatsoever, flat, dynamic, no surface noise. The Slip is a banger. Love Jonny's guitar on this track.
Are there multiple versions? If not, someone entered the wrong barcode. Sticker (US purchase) has 191404119716 which is what’s in the photo, not 191404146217 as listed.- Enjoyed these two songs quite a bit. More upbeat and electronic focused than anything on Wall Of Eyes. Hoping this is a hint to their next album, but I guess time will tell. This is a great collectors item… but wouldn’t pay crazy prices
- Extremely clean, I wish it was 45rpm though. Ripped and uploaded to reddit
Picked up a copy and have to say that The Slip is one of my favorite songs from them yet. Love the groovy guitar riff and Thom’s mesmerizing vocals on this track. Definitely worth the pickup. My pressing had a few pops throughout but otherwise very little surface noise and sounded great.
For only two songs… this is pretty magical. My pressing was actually super quiet and dynamic. Thom and Johnny just continue to crush.
