No USA issues in 1991 according to discogs and matrix the same so 1988.All colours to be honest worth the same about £100

My copy is completely opaque. Definitely a somewhat VG plus record visually and during brief quiet parts but plays VG+ because of how loud it is. Great record.

Pressing is lovely, no matter what the source... Silent, dead flat surface and really nice balance.

I've asked Jagjaguwar to confirm repress date... will update if I get an answer!

This transluscent purple vinyl pressing is from 1991 not 1988.

I always wondered why this would sound ten times better whenever I tried to give up weed, because it's like obviously a stoner record? But yesterday I learned on Wikipedia that J Mascis has been straight edge since 1982, which doesn't sound right but anyway. The other artist I have the same thing with is Bob Marley, which doesn't prove anything does it, none of this is making sense. Anyway good pressing, loud and crazy album.

came super dirty, but a clean took care of that. sounds pretty damn phenomenal. pretty dead quiet and punchy. my press has a modest warp, but it has no effect on the sound. easy 5/5.

Excellent album. Not quite as good as you're living all over me but still fantastic. Also pressing sounds great, better than you're living all over me.

Sounds good to me. The treble is loud and the bass is good. It's great for an indie record from the 80s. It is harsh sounding, but this is just the way it was recorded.
