I have many versions of this record. This one sounds great too! Record was flat. The label issue seen in the photos is not on my copy. No URL printed over the DGC logo on side 2. The only issue is that the very nice black/lined record sleeve that was... See full review

I don't see any issue with the pressing/mastering. This record sounds great! Super package too. Over the top and very fun, inside and out.

Great sounding! I didn't have any problem with the record. It's centered and flat and awesome.

HSCN was produced by Butch Vig. Pre Nevermind sessions, but yes, it was in fact a Vig production.

The Bootlegs are well documented. You can tell them apart easily by the "special low price" text. It's thinner/clearer/sharper than on originals. Pressing rings are different too, on the vinyl.
Nirvana - In Utero

It was a joke. Kurt was just having a little fun with the idea of cranking the EQ to make it extra harsh on the ears.
It was a doodle from his sketch book, not a real suggestion.
Attila (5) - Attila
posted a review of Attila (5) - Attila. 11 months ago
Interesting record. It's pretty fun, but relentlessly in your face. No musical dynamics. The few moments of contrast stand out. The playing is crazy good, but the songs are a mess. Reminds me more than a little of Jack White's solo work. His vocals... See full review

So.... what is a "euro sleeve" anyway? The looks like a pretty standard glossy jacket with a spine. I thought euro sleeves were the super glossy top-loading jackets with no spine used for lots of dance stuff.

My pressing sounds great all the way through. I love the flexi. Wish that track was just on the album, but it's great to have. The flexi hole was a little small, but I pressed it down with my 45 adapter.

I agree. There is no "C", it's just a loosely, quickly drawn "L". Both sides are curved L's.

earcandy7. It has never been "hypothesized that Jason does play the 2nd guitar part on Love Buzz".
It just didn't happen. That track, along with the rest of the record had already been finished. The band hadn't yet paid for the sessions and that's why... See full review

If you want the authentic 90s bootleg experience, this is for you. Sounds like a cassette. Bad, awkward edits and sequencing. Zero correct session info, misspellings. This one has it all! And, it's really fun to listen to. Don't pay alot. But if it's... See full review

Yes. It was shrink wrapped when new. It had different shrink wrap than the first press. First press on white had an overlapping seam in the shrink wrap down the middle of the back. These 2nd press copies on black had smooth shrink with no overlap on the back. See full review

This record sounds great. I still have the fuzzy dial-a-song versions in my head, so it's a bit of a strange experience!

The point of the remix was not to "do better". It's just to take different approach and show a different side of certain tracks. A different angle. Just for fun, to celebrate a great album. The same was a band can change up a song night after night, a... See full review

Only on the 7" copies pressed by Sub Pop. I don't think any Tupelo pressings have the call, even if they mention it in the credits.

It's a challenging listen at times, but it's often hilarious and brilliant. Hearing these (never meant for anyone but himself) recordings is fascinating and amazing. Not something to put on to just get lost in, like a regular album, but as a document... See full review

The record sounds good, just quiet. The bass is super on this press. But the overall volume is kind of quiet.

Yes, this pressing does include the single mix of love buzz with the montage intro
The sleeve is a glued side opening sleeve, not the folded, unglued top opening sleeve like the original.

I don't think that was a legit sale. There are two listings with identical descriptions that sold for 100 and 900 bucks back to back.

Yes. A gatefold could have been nice, and one disk black ,the other white, would have been neat.
