Judging by the comments I've got lucky. My copy sounds amazing; minimal noise, a stunning soundstage and great dynamics.
|
|
I seem to have gotten (mostly) lucky with the quality of my pressing, although it did need a clean when I received it. The sound quality is good across most of the tracks; it's only at the end of Therapy on side 2, that there are some distinct clicks...

totally agree, and the band get the money not the flippers

The packaging and the white vinyl look great, the mastering is good although a little too much space for my preference. It's way better than the Plain pressing and sounds almost as good as the original. My issues are the same as a few others have...

My copy sounds great, as do the other 2017 reissues I have. I'm playing them on a Rega RP6, through a Rega Elex-R Amp and Kef LS50's and they all sound really good. With most 90's recordings they were mastered for CD, so when they come to remaster...

I also have the US edition and again as mentioned in the other comments my copy does not have the foil stamp, but does have the "Oblique Strategies" card. Looks like there's a patter emerging here

This is an official release - it may not be artist approved, but that's not the same thing. It's disappointing that they weren't informed or had any input, but this is the music industry, it's a business like any other. And if artists not approving...

It's not trolling to get the 'unofficial' tag removed. This is an official release, it may not be approved by the artists, that's not great, but from a legal, contractual and 'official' view. In terms of MoV's output, the vast majority is done with...

Agreed - just finishing giving it a complete playthrough and it sounds great and they've done another fine job on the packaging. Excellent soundstage separation and depth.
|
|
It's not a bootleg, this is an official release in terms of having cleared all of the legal hurdles required. I'm sorry that this clashes with the desires of the artists but that doesn't make it a bootleg. As for this being a CD transfer, that's...

This is an official reissue. It's not a bootleg, Sony handed the recordings over to MoV to enable them to press it, and they did a very fine job of it too. The band may not have authorised/approved the release, but that's very different from saying...

Like the other people who posted positive comments on this pressing, I have no intention of fooling anyone. I've bought some shit pressings in the past and been happy to call it out when it's happened (I've been mugged twice by Plain records). ...

According to the response mrbluesurf received from MoV regarding this release "MOV doesn’t cut from CD’s. - For this title we have used high res audio files (96 KHZ / 24 BIT) of the original master." so they would probably have also been aware of who...

My assumption is that this is likely to be the 2005 remaster. Although Jonz isn't mentioned on the vinyl release (there's not much of any info there) he is listed in the 2005 CD remaster, which was remastered at Loud Mastering - so having 'JONZ LOUD'...

I don't think they've redone the fades; Side A 4:02 fades into 14:31 in the same way as the original CD and vinyl and this is replicated in all cases with the obvious exception of 0:54, which as it has been moved does not fade into 4:14 in the same...

I know from the advance comments around this release that it's probably a digital source, but it still sounds really good - just run a comparison with the CD and the vinyl sounds like it has a bit more depth (this may just be due to the difference in...

available to order for ￡13.99 at https://townsendmusic.store/cart/product.php?id=59679 looks identical to this release

Project Carbon with Acrylic platter, Ortofon 2m Blue, Teac Amp, Q Acoustics Concept 20 speakers on matching stands - and these reissues sound great to me.
|
|
It is very quiet compared with any other A Recordings vinyl I've played but the sound quality is great.
|
|
Cheers. Just ordered from Norman Records in the UK,so hopefully I'll be giving it a spin soon.

Finally bit the bullet and gave up waiting for a repress and I'm so chuffed. I've always loved this album and to hear the quality of the vinyl press is an absolute joy. There are rumours that the Global Communication remix LP is getting reissued...

You must have just been unlucky, like most of the reviewers for the Rammstein reissues my copy sounds stunning
|
|
same as punkka, bought it when it came out and my pressing is fine
|
|
|
|
not sure if your review is for this version. My copy sounds excellent. The price is probably due to this being a limited edition coloured vinyl release.
|
|
yup, I recently upgraded my set-up, and after playing some of my best sounding records and loving them, thought I'd see what my worse piece of vinyl sounded like - turns out it that no amount of money spent on equipment can compensate for how awful...

After missing out on the Vinyl Me Please repress last year I was tempted to buy one of the recent bootleg pressings; now really pleased I held off as this sounds really good. Lovely and quiet, with real clarity, great separation and clear, deep bass.
|
|
Overall, the differences between this and the original feel quite subtle through most of the record, which makes sense; this is a classic for a reason. But where they do come through, they really do feel like enhancements and not just tweaks for the...

Amazing. Pure, in your face, raucous Aussie garage pub rock. The most fun I've heard on vinyl in a long time.
|
|
|
|
Like any decent drone/doom work, you need to set aside some time and settle in for the duration of this absolute classic. There are lots of records that try to convey a mood, a feeling, a sense of something more than just the music, but not many...

repress is on clear/red marble is now available for preorder on the optic nerve website https://opticnerverecordings.com/

The sound quality is excellent. I've played it through a couple of times and it perfectly captures the range, from the quiet ambient moments to the deep throbbing bass.
|
|
go to agree, now played it through a couple of times and it sounds stunning.

I have the original Dragnet pressing of this (bought it the week it came out) - but it's one of my all time favourite records so I couldn't resist getting the remastered double vinyl.
|
|
|
This is one of the best examples of how to do a reissue - take an excellent original single album, and then do a stunning job of remastering it, give it two slabs of clean vinyl to stretch comfortably over, and voila, this absolute classic sounds...

Mine has a lot of low level hiss - as suggested by ericmm47 I've cleaned the vinyls and I'm not sure if there's a any real difference. I'm a little disappointed as this was the most expensive record I bought yesterday and was the one I was most...
