    Wow wow wow. Not used to modern albums sounding this good. Dead quiet wax, the 45 rpm allows for more information and an audiophile-quality sound.

      This pressing is stunning. Flawless every time I play it

        Excellent pressing. Super flat and quiet. High fidelity all the way through.

          Am I dumb or what? Didn’t realize the lock out Groove was intentional. Great!!! Record. Too bad I returned it

            Dug out my OG and got to say, it's a perfect album and pressing. Given 54 minutes of music, mastering at 45 rpm makes perfect sense here. The dynamics are just sublime and with all things being similar, no digital will ever match this beauty.

                Amazing pressing, I’m amazed and so glad that this 10/10 album got a pressing to match

                  Updated matrix for the 2023 repress, really just for the D side. The new bit could be wrong but it's the best I could make out. It's hand etched. I wrote it out as it's written with the odd spacing and capitalization.

                    I bought this copy brand new, also being the first time I would listen to beach house. Pleasantly surprised that the cover glows in the dark, and is pressed at 45rpm. Amazing sounding, lush and awesome!!! One of the best sounding albums in my collection. I would really suggest buying this album, specifically this version.
