Alright, for ones who want to know, I just got the US pressing; I expected it to crush this EU version, but it's not the case, because the sound is actually almost... the same.
More precisely, the US version sounds just a tad louder and less compressed (to my ears), but both are great, in any case I move my body in the same way with the same energy (and maybe even a very little bit more with the EU one) when I'm listening to them.
After, this is just my opinion, but what I learned from this experience, is that it's not worth to get a headache about wanting at all costs (unless you are a collector obviously) the overseas pressing, because the difference between both is not so big.
And besides, I would also add that if the European cut comes from the CD, then the American one too, and if this is not the case, then this difference is inaudible and does not impact the sensations.
Now, I don't know on the other hand, what worth the US club edition and the Aussie version in comparison, but I'd stop here for this album.
If you have different opinions, please feel free to share them of course.
This record was cut from the CD master. If you look at a spectogram of a recording of the album recorded at 48 kHz sampling rate or higher, you'll see a sharp cut-off around 20 kHz.
So if you're paying big bucks to have this album on vinyl you're simply paying to hear how your turntable setup changes the sound of the original source, which will mainly be due to the frequency response of the cartridge.
No need to mention that the album is excellent. Also, this pressing is outstanding.
It exhilarates your speakers.- This seems to be much more common than the US press, do they sound different?
