    susceptible to ringwear given that it's two LPs put into a standard sleeve, but the sound quality is great

      "There are 2 major manufacturing variations. A darker/matte sleeve and darker labels is most common. The less common variant has brighter artwork and a glossy sleeve"

      Also worth noting of the two variants - the lighter label copy has a very noticeable difference in thickness and sound quality - IMO superior on both counts. I would *almost* compare the darker one to a flexi-disc in its thickness.

      I did a blind side by side test with my partner and the darker copy didn't have the same punch and depth as its cousin - and was pretty crackly compared to the copy I was used to.

      Looking at them together I'd say both variants have dark labels but the gloss cover copy has much more blue in the centre labels while the matte copy is more of a greenish grey.

      Which is too bad...probably going to re-sell the darker variant.

        Brushed off this vinyl for the first time in years. Love the album but the vinyl itself is very poor and has a ton of skips and pops throughout even though being in mint condition. Shame since I doubt we’ll ever get a better pressing

          A few of tracks are much better at 45 rpm.

            My copy has Side 1a on both records, but the appropriate side B’s.

              Just now heard this on wax after almost 20 years of declaring The Fragile NIN's best to everyone I talk to about it.

              This is amazing.

              Only thing I can offer for criticism is that there are 3 starfuckers remixes. Even with that in mind, they're all different.

              This is an amazing remix album and it may be my favorite, bumping FDTS from the top.

                On my copy 10 miles high skips like crazy.
                Anyone else?

                  I wish there were more masterful and complete remix albums like this and year zero remixed. Others become repetitious like further down the spiral and head like a hole remix album. This is a great sounding album on vinyl, Nothing is wrong with the pressing and clarity beats cd edition.
