Sounds good, that's all, neither amazing, nor bad, just.... good. The bass sounds good, the drums have punch, the vocals are nice and smooth, but my main problem is with Polly and Something In The Way, the quieter songs on the album and the final tracks on both sides of the vinyl. Polly sounds good, a bit noisy, but still good, but Something In The Way is pretty bad, if you don't listen to that song with headphones on this pressing, it borders on inaudible (literally, you can barely hear Kurt sing). Otherwise, good vinyl pressing, sounds good, but the softer, quieter songs are not really good. 8/10
Killer pressing of a killer album, from to back this sounds amazing. Wonderfully mastered and cut, this is the best version of this I’ve heard on vinyl. What’s really great is this pressing is generally found around a $20-$25 price point. If you see this one, grab it and jam it, you won’t regret it.
Effing amazing if bass is your thing. The vinyl seems to be a different quality or possibly they used injection molding? The vinyl is thick and not as flexible and the shine is a little different. More like shellac. Buy it and enjoy it. This one of the B2B done right, along with In Utero. Original mixes.
My copy sound fantastic, nice balanced sound, very crisp. Silent between tracks. I’m annoyed that the record is a bit warped. This is happening more and more often with new records that I buy.
This reissue sounds great. The inner sleeve kinda sucks but I replaced it with a better poly sleeve. The vinyl isn’t concentric but it plays fine. Also the record was a little dirty but when cleaned, it had no surface marks.
I confirm, no "BG" etched on this vinyl and I don't care cause it sounds damn good enough to me. Bass and drums are not overpowered, it just sounds groovy as grunge should do. I don't like Back To Black pressings too much but glad to see they don't f...ked up all their releases :)
