Well... Am i the only one who thinks that the quality of the pressing matters ?
I'm really astonished, because, for this one, the mix is very good and deep, but totally ruined by a load of clics and surface noise approximately at each turn... This single would have deserve a better pressing... And I don't think any of the RSD 2025 I bought have any quality check... -
This has a nice flow and great presentation and has just the right amount of p:machinery - more would most certainly have been tedious as far as known versions go, but I wish that they had included (The Echo Of) Frozen Faces 10:22 from p: Machinery (Reactivate) to let that track shine even more. Sound quality and all, but 25 mins on two sides is too short when they could have included The Echo for those that don't buy 40 year old 2nd hand 12"s. Take this break and dance!

The best sounding RSD pressing I think I’ve bought. Those releasing the Sisters & Nephilim RSD records from 2024 could learn a thing or two from this about how a vinyl record should sound.

This sounds fantastic, as the other reviewer has said, the vinyl is flat and quiet and it sounds wonderfully mastered. Managed to get the last copy in a shop yesterday morning, after failing in two prior... there was a lot of power walking around Soho going on lol -
