Reviews
-
This is one of the worst records I have ever heard. It sounds like complete mush and has zero dynamics. I would have thought this was unofficial if I did not buy directly from a retailer.
-
I agree with a lot of the previous reviews, this sounds very muddy. Not awful, but not good. -
This is the only copy of this killer album I have on vinyl, so I have nothing to compare it to. Here's my observation after obtaining a rather nice copy (for thankfully very low dollar)...
Vinyl is very flat.
Vinyl plays very quiet with no wonky surface noise.
Bass is very thick and heavy.
As noted by others, mids are pushed way up and out.
Highs could have been brought out a bit more. This would have fixed everything in my opinion.
Some EQ tweaking helps. It's not horrible, but could be better.
Jacket is quality as is the inner sleeve.
I'm happy with my purchase. -
Absolutely falls flat, imagine if all of your EQ bands were set at Neutral/0, this would be the sound. -
I have to agree with some of the reviews on here, it's shit. The bass is lacking, falls flat and depressing that they won't stick to the original sound, it doesn't need remastering.
I needed to adjust the EQ to make it less depressing, maybe I'll take a Citalopram before listening to this again. This is what you get when RAINBO masters and GZ Media presses a vinyl... Dollar Store quality. -

-
This pressing sounds better than the 2008 pressing with the Capitol Vault hype sticker one. -
