My copy also showed up very warped. Was able to mostly flatten. Sonically it sounds very good with minimal surface noise.

A lot of surface noise throughout, but I don't have any distortion that the previous reviewer claims. Sonically sounds great to me. Vinyl is perfectly flat.

If you know what's good for you, you'll avoid purchasing anything from Brooklyn Vegan. Twice I have ordered exclusives from them (over the course of two years), both times there were serious damages/defects. First time was cosmetic damage, second time...

20 years later and this band is still supremely underrated. This is a great album and pressing.
|
|
wvuvt1 it's not about that. Most of us replace with better inner sleeves. It's the fact that the damage is already done by the time the consumer purchases it because the discs have been shifting around in transit being scuffed and creating surface noise.
|
|
Can someone explain the alternate artwork that's supposedly on this version? Nothing in the notes gives any context.
|
|
My copy is standard weight pressed by Record Industry, and has no download code. Sounds fantastic.
|
|
Extremely warped, extremely noisy. Paper sleeve. I would say avoid.
|
|
Considering the MSRP is $50 on this, there is absolutely zero reason why there can't be poly inner sleeves. Disappointing to hear.

Received my copy today. Warped and very noisy. I have the yellow/red swirl pressing as well, while still not quiet, not as bad as this pressing. I'll be sending this one back
|
|
Cannot believe people are falling for these obvious scams. If it's a third of MSRP from a brand new seller, I hate to tell you but you're about to be scammed out of your money. How do people not pay attention?

WHY the paper inner sleeves??? This box would have been perfect otherwise. Every disc is coated in paper scuffs and in result, every disc has substantially more surface noise than your typical Record Industry pressing packaged in a poly-lined sleeve....

REENO I owned the Vinyl Flat and it's useless on 200g vinyl without nearly destroying the grooves. I now own the much more expensive Orb flattener, and not even that machine can flatten 200g discs very well

SpaceWalker2 I am unsure, but wouldn't be surprised if so

Received a very scuffed/scratched copy from BrooklynVegan. They adamantly REFUSED to replace it and would only accept a full return or $10 store credit. Just a heads up, as I have to return mine now. I would be extremely hesitant supporting...

Worst song?? Appreciate the thorough review but When It Started is an amazing song!
|
|
Is this pressing AAA like the gold Ziggy Stardust reissue?
|
|
|
Sounds fantastic. Very quiet Pallas vinyl that comes in a separate poly inner sleeve on top of including the original inner lyric sleeve. Only gripe is that it took FOUR copies to get one that wasn't extremely warped. I've noticed that with Pallas in...

Have you seen Taylor Swift's latest RSD release, limited to 75000?
|
|
Like quick "stacticky" noises? I had a few of those on track one
|
|
Can anyone see who this was pressed by? I'm assuming Precision or something GZ affiliated?
|
|
Same here. The VMP pressing suffers from the same. Sonically, this thing is a huge miss.
|
|
The below comment made me steer clear until I finally decided to grab this. My copy sounds great, very little surface noise. Only gripe was a warp that I thankfully was able to flatten.
|
|
|
Same experience with the last three orders I've done with Rhino. I am no longer supporting them directly, until they get their shipping issues fixed.
|
|
Third Man Pressing hasn't impressed me in years. This is no exception. Took me four copies to get one that didn't have two extremely warped discs. The one I kept is still a tad warped, with notable ticks/pops throughout. Not sure why people get...

Finally found this album to order again and was disappointed to see it isn't the Bellman cut, nor pressed at Pallas. However, I think this GZ pressing is fantastic. Both LPs are pretty much perfectly flat and quiet. Sonically it sounds great too....

Your comment on the jacket is not accurate. It is definitely not a tip-on jacket. VMP's site even says it's direct to board.
