    Very good, clean out of the paper sleeve and sound quality is on point. I guess I got lucky with the non fill thing.

      First copy had some audibly unpleasant non fill rips which were even visible to the eye. The retailer Rough Trade UK was kind enough to open a replacement (huge props to this excellent record store once again) and inspect before sending it out to me and its free of any groove defects. The disc is bang on centre and all but flat while playback exhibits no noise at all... usual hallmarks of Record Industry! This is essentially just as excellent as the black version counterpart ive waxxed lyrical over so it sounds great and plays great and hey... IT IS GREAT!!

        Unhappy about the production quality (common with colored vinyl), warp and a few pock marks, but otherwise it really sounds great. Mastering was performed well, I like this a lot.

          Anyone happen to know how the sound quality on this bad boy is? Better than the OG? Update: As of 10/15 I have purchased a copy and spun it twice. Once with headphones and again on speakers, and it sounds awesome! Good and punchy. Very pleased, the color is great too
