Ed_109 Feb 2, 2022
My favorite album from them. This pressing looks and sounds fantastic. Great packaging as well. Its a good starting album of theirs. Wifes a huge fan and this came heavily recommended 👌

Nice packaging and sound but lots of background hiss. Shame.
jessemiles42 Sep 26, 2018
I don't know if anyone cares but I just picked up a copy of this and its a misprint, the labels on disc 2 are on the wrong sides... anyone else had this problem?

Great sounding records for a great album. The packaging is very nice and the vinyl itself feels of high quality.
theyungcujo Feb 9, 2017
Yeah, the overall consensus seems to be the great packaging + sound (but needing a sound bump), and I can agree with all of that. Highly recommend picking this up.

Absolutely beautiful packaging, and great sounding records
erik7778910 Aug 24, 2015
Good, quiet pressing with no noise.
MusicNerdB52 May 5, 2015
In terms of audio quality, yes, the whole album seems to have been set at a lower volume level. This is apparent on the digital release as well. Other than this, quality wise everything sounds great. You're just gonna have to pump things up a bit louder.

Packaging is nice. Audio wise, it sounds good, just extremely quiet in my opinion and even muffled during certain tracks. I have to turn my stereo up well past my normal listening level.

I also noticed the spindle hole was cut very poorly. I need to actually line up the record to prevent it from wobbling while playing, it has significant play in it.
