When it's good, we have to praise it. Great job from GZ Media here ! Clean & beautiful sound, flat records. -

Edited 4 months agoMy copy delivers perfect sound, easily 5/5. I definitely can recommend it. -
A little noisy during some quiet sections (especially at the start of the record). Other than that, literally perfect.

Edited one year agoMy favorite version of the album; I've heard the CD, the Remixx digital and Remixx vinyl. The Remixx digital is punchiest, but overall sounds thin and I prefer the original mixes.
This pressing is like someone took the original CD and uncompressed it and made it more natural sounding. Although not night and day different, the difference is noticeable and worth the reasonable price of this pressing. -
This is avery good sounding record with all instrumentation sounding full and present EXCEPT the drums. The drums sound too compressed and don't punch through the mix. The cymbals seem to hiss and wash away without resonating. The bass drum doesn't thump and the snare appears buried to my ears. Aside from that, it's a very good listen and worth picking up on sale. I don't have any other pressings to compare it too other than other records in my collection... and I have a few audiophile recordings and high-quality sounding albums... if more attention was paid to the drums I'd have a more favorable opinion of this pressing. 3.5/5 stars. -
Completely agree with the rest of the reviews; very nice pressing! Pretty loud and clear cut. I had a bit of surface noise when taking it out of the shrink, plus some dust/debris on the records themselves, presumably due to the paper innersleeves. Beautiful package and presentation, though poly innersleeves would have been a nice inclusion. It appears that this is pressed at GZ (Made in Czech Republic sticker on the back), but you really wouldn't be able to tell based off how good the record sounds. A no-brainer at the right price. -
Hell yes. This sounds fantastic. Noticed a tiny bit of surface noise on my copy on quieter parts, but when this record gets humming, it’s one of the better sounding records I have. Killer low end and amazing sounding vocals.
