Billie Eilish – Happier Than Ever

$28 for a 2LP + poster is a steal! overall, it sounds pretty good. there’s a bit of surface noise but it’s not nearly as bad as the HMHAS target pressing 🤦‍♀️

the volume mixing on this record sounds… weird (?) like “getting older” sounds kinda low but “i didn’t change my number” is louder, etc.

overall it’s a not a nice sound, some major pops and hissing on mine

Seems like I got lucky with our copy based on these mixed reviews. No hiss on any of the 4 sides on either channel. There are a couple of pops, but nothing major, and I haven't wet cleaned them. I feel like this is a very quality pressing if you get as lucky as I did. For the music, I was pleasantly surprised! I just happened to grab this for my girlfriend when I saw it at target, having only heard her hits before. Which I did sort of like, but never thought of myself as a Billie fan or anything. This album is more sophisticated than I expected (now I have to listen to the rest of her catalogue to see if it's my expectations that need checked). Long story short, if you get a good copy, this is a great addition to your collection

How limited is it if it's already owned by 15t collectors?

How come there are so many pressings of this and none of them sound decent ? This is the worst sounding record of my entire collection. This is just garbage. I could forget about the constant surface noise, pops and clicks but there is massive distortion in the right channel on low frequencies on both discs making it really unenjoyable to listen to since it is a bass heavy record. The only way I managed to go through the whole album (for the first and last time) is by tuning down my right speaker so the distortion was less noticeable. Such a shame because the mixing sounds very different from the digital release and I kinda like it more. Glad I got this second-hand and didn’t pay much.

amazing album but it has lots of surface noise. still playable but i wish it was better.

I was skeptical to get this variant because of some of the reviews, but this vinyl sounds fantastic even after a few listens through! I have been playing side A on repeat at times

just bought a copy for the black friday sale and my disc 2 has like weird stuff pressed into it? it’s not marbling, but when you hold it to the light there black dots in it and its pressed around the edges. it almost looks like mold.
i have to play to see if it affects playback but i was also wondering if anyone had this problem?

Just wasn't my taste. I normally love Billy. But for whatever reason, this album wasn't doing it for me.

My first copy had distortion in the right channel throughout the entire album, making it unplayable. Bought a second copy and it sounds great - no distortion and only very slight popping.
