        Exceptional pressing. Dynamics are excellent, and vocals are clear. To anyone wondering about the surface noise; please note that the sound is intentional and you'll hear even on streaming services. 5/5 stars for this pressing, presentation, colour, and bonus 7" - highly recommend!

          On the first vinyl release, the CD crossfades between A5/B1 and B3/C1 are eliminated: A5 and B3 fade out regularly; B1 begins with Chinese restaurant skit at end of "The Beast"; C1 begins with the dialogue at the end of "Killing Me Softly"; D1 begins with the dialogue at the end of "Cowboys" after the bell ding. Are those details carried over to this reissue, or was it mastered from the CD?

            Mine copy didn't come with the 7inch. Purchased it directly from VMP, and it was sealed... Has anyone else faced this issue?

              I have an OG copy as well, and I can't really tell the difference between this and the other. The 7" is a cool addition, but only one track on it is actually "the first time on vinyl". I don't know why that was ever claimed, probably a typo?

              This release is currently listed as "Out of Stock" on the VMP website.

                VMP edition album cover looks like a cheap color photocopy.

                      The surface noise was added in the original master copies by the artist to give it a "vinyl" feel this might be what you are hearing even the mp4 has a surface noise sound/quality to it.
