Reviews
It's a little translucent, not full opaque pink, BEAUTIFUL record- It’s lifeless & flat! This album lacks any emotion, heart & soul!
Fanstatic pressing !!
So better than transparent version that I had
I agree with the previous comments regarding the pressing. Fabulous, no noise at all and great sound. Another great Fontaines album.- Absolutely brilliant pressing. So many big albums missing the mark these days but no sibilance, surface noise, nor any other qualms. Pink also fits perfectly with the artwork. What a record.
- Fontaines showcased 2 songs from this new album at Glastonbury in June 24 which sounded great. This album leaves the gritty streets of childhood Dublin behind. It sounds lush, rich, layered, achingly beautiful at times, very melodic and lyrical. A band that don’t stand still. Looking forward to seeing live in Dublin in December, and Finsbury Park Summer 25.
Excellent pressing familiar to Fontaines sound! Please enter at least 4 more.
Great pressing! Little to no surface noise and flat. Came with nice lyric insert. I’d recommend this press it’s sounds good and it’s pretty loud.
Pretty decent pressing. I think it lacks a greater separation and is a bit leaning towards too much the treble but pretty great.
Fantastic pressing, as always with Fontaines. Lovely color too! Paper sleeve is a bit meh tho.
