A worthy release after all. Great packaging - textured gatefold print, cool color of the plate, almost quiet surface (just a few cyclic clicks). The sound is good. Not as impressive and transparent as in “A Light For…”, but absolutely acceptable.

Well it's quite a shame... The cover feels and looks amazing, the vinyl in blue is pretty as well, almost all the songs are really interesting and worth to be listened to but holy crap the surface noise... I listened to it once and couldn't go through all of it, tried again with my headset and felt a lil better. But it stays a really brilliant piece of art from our trio. -

This album is fantastic (especially Bending Hectic), but man this mastering and pressing is FRUSTRATING! There are moments that sound AMAZING and moments that sound like an early 2000s mp3 with a low bitrate. I get a lot of details after ultrasonic cleaning, but the sound is super compressed/strangely eq-ed. Shame…a lot to people seemed to have issues with “You Know Me,” but that’s the best sounding track on my copy.

Side A perfect. Side B some tick through begin of first track. Solid gatefold and beautiful cover. Overall a nice edition -
Now on my second copy of blue vinyl, purchased in EU. 1st copy (sealed) was physically scratched in places, and centre label side B was torn. I'd never seen anything like it. But it still sounded better than this second copy, which is SO noisy/distorted on both sides I want to cry...

Bought at Rough Trade London on Release Day. Great copy, no issues. Love the print finish on the cover, perfect for the artwork. -
