Sounds really nice to my ears (only listened to Dracula X so far).

I like the packaging although I wish it was a little brighter, its hard to make out all the nice details of both the back and front. The inside is damn glorious though! Love the artwork ... See full review

Sounds good and clean if a little on the flat side.

The packaging I kind of like and kind of hate. The red gloss and overall design is a bit underwhelming. I like the front but to use the exact same design template for the inside and back just feels ... See full review

Nice sounding pressing, I haven't heard the RSD white vinyl version but apparently that had some pressing problems. As far as I can hear they haven't made their way on to the black version thankfully.

Here's hoping this doesn't have the same issues I had with the black copy. Shame it's, again, not replicating the original gatefold.

For mine it's after track 4 which is the last of the 'Imaginary Songs'. I can only assume it's intentional as a way of separating these shorter pieces from the two parts of 'The Contraceptive Briefcase II'. This way the release doesn't have to be a 2 ... See full review

Great sounding pressing (although I've never owned another version of this album.

The three parts of Treetop Drive are minimalist, dark, brooding and full of atmosphere. They have a decaying industrial quality to them which reminds me of David Lynch. ... See full review

Hey there to the 3 people who already say they have this; if you really do have it early can you comment on the sound quality. Cheers, would be much appreciated.

Fantastic sounding vinyl. Also, great album. One of my favourites, an album that opened my ears to how electronics and rap could collide and coalesce.

An odd curiosity that came out toward the very beginning of Devo's life (in terms of albums at least). So most of the tracks are covers of tracks from Q/A. Some of it is fun, some of it is bizarre, some of it misses the mark, a lot of it is gimmicky but ... See full review

My copy has the first first track of 'Day by Day' ending side A. Side B starts with 'Gretal's Tale' and only has 3 tracks.

I'd imagine it's like this on all copies of this reissue so I'll change this for now but if anyone can confirm their copies too ... See full review

Probably the most phenomenal and wide arms reaching Current 93 release. Has the 'guest' vocalists that have kind of become a staple of late Current 93, Stapelton weaves a subtle production for the main body of The Inmost Light whilst the two surrounding ... See full review

An enjoyable recording that has kind of creeped up on me over the years that I've had it and occasionally spun it. It's a nice mix of Popol Vuh style mantric music mixed with a lo-fi 'world' music feel and a dash of post-rock. The occasional vocals are ... See full review

Not much of a fan, feels like she's still trying to find her voice. Each track sounds like a new voice which feels odd... sometimes it's Newsom like sometimes it's a deeper Circuit Des Yeux or Lana Del Rey voice. As for the music, it's some times Elliott ... See full review

Shame but at least it hasn't taken a nose dive like so many reissues do. I think my original copy could sound better but maybe you're right, it never did sound as it should in the first place. Cheers!

One of my all time favourite albums. Really nice collection of tracks each with a mind and logic all their own. Somehow both unnerving and relaxing. Lovely electronic and acoustic blend with some field recording elements. Highly highly recommended.

How does this sound? Would love a vinyl version of the expanded God Bless Tiny Tim CD box set.

They don't disclose the numbers. The limited colour won't ever be repressed though. The other colours may get another repress one day.

This is one release I've been waiting for since the conception of Data Discs. An amazing and iconic soundtrack that fits the game so well and adds so much style and personality to the game.

I always thought that this may end up getting lumped together ... See full review

Can anyone comment on their pressing, I have the coloured version and it's pretty noisey throughout and sounds really distorted on the snares on songs like the opening track. Not really happy with it and think i'll exchange it for a black copy if it ... See full review

Great sounding record, was worried seeing as it's essentially almost a magazine freebie. Would love whoever pressed this to press more Mothersbaugh for sure.
