Notes

Unlike most Post reissues after 2000, this has what appears to be first-generation typesetting on outer and inner sleeves and labels instead of lower quality reproductions of the originals. Accordingly the country of manufacture has been updated for the first time on any Post LP pressing (, not England) along with the address of One Little Indian in south London.

Images on front and back cover are also slightly zoomed out compared with other later reissues, but less so than on the very first pressings. The Back To Black pressing (Post) uses the same zoomed out images and has the same variant runout etching but has different barcode and cat. # on back cover and labels. Additionally, the legal statement on the back cover of the Back To Black pressing has 6 lines as opposed to 5 lines in this pressing.

Sleeve opens up from the top, like the original pressing.

Same barcode, cat. #, and variant matrix etching as on Post, but this pressing has no hype sticker, while the other pressing uses lower quality reproductions of images and has a hype sticker on shrink wrap.

Tracks listed sequentially both on rear sleeve and label.

    I would disagree, this sounds pretty good. There totally are good dynamics present here and it sounds clean.

      It sounds wonderful, you just have to turn up the volume a little... it's not that complicated :)

        Reviewing every record in my collection:

        This is one of the Dullest, most plain vinyl albums i own. It's flat, no dynamics nor range at all. Sounds like a Cd rip, and a really bad one.

          So interesting reading the review below that says Possibly Maybe and Headphones are the best sounding songs on their pressing, because listening to those made me come write this review. They’re the worst sounding songs on the album with my pressing! Side B in general sounds extremely muffled (especially the closer you get toward the inner grooves) and it’s a lot quieter than Side A. Side A sounds amazing, especially the songs near the outer grooves. Army Of Me and Hyper Ballad sound stunning! So dynamic, clear, and full. It’s a shame the rest of the album isn’t up to the same quality.

            A little surface noisy on tracks like “Possibly Maybe” even after a good clean. I’ll probably give it another good clean but it still sounds great despite the bit of noise. Definitely best to clean it and pop it right into a MoFi sleeve after purchasing, since it’s initially housed in a card printed inner sleeve. Fantastic album, one of Björk’s best for sure! Her music is definitely made to be played on vinyl with a good setup.

              Once cleaned with my Record Doctor this sounds fantastic. Not sure what everyone else is on about.

                My copy sounds killer! Some of the popping sounds people are hearing may be what was on the og. Possibly maybe comes to mind as a track where the effect of a worn lp was used.

                  So much surface noise, it's almost unlistenable in the quiet moments. The mix it self seems decent, but I'd avoid unless you can audition it first.

                    My version (in the runouts) is etched TPLP 51 A-2 and TPLP 51 B-2. However, I CANNOT find these variants anywhere on Discogs. It is a 180g black vinyl and sounds really, really good! Any help on this version is greatly appreciated.

                      Sounds fine. Hyper-Ballad bass is no wear as deep as the compact disc. But it sounds good overall. I always run my LPs through and ultrasonic cleaner a must have device. I have had many new LPs with pops and clicks and other noise that went away after one short cleaning. These devices can be purchased for very reasonable prices if you look in the right places. I got mine from Amazon and it can clean 7 LPs at one time for $300.
