    Sounds great aside from the surface noise. The record is scuffed badly. Contacted Sub Pop and the seller and will hopefully get a replacement. The parts not ruined sounded great. I have a very high acceptance factor and it was too bad for me.

      These reviews below are all spot-on. This pressing is perfect, a steal at the regular price. Get it.

        This is a beautiful remaster. Crisp and clear, yet with a rich warmth.

          I don't know who mastered this but it sounds stunning. What a great surprise.

            Listening to this I am compelled to comment on its quality. Spectacular.

              The quality of the remaster is great, highly recommended. This album is all about emotion, any true fan is advised to watch "Everything Will Change" performance, available on DVD.

                "Such Great Heights" Is a song for everyone. I got this album knowing that and It still suprises me whenever someone listens to it and says "Dam! This is good!"
