      Absolutely beautiful sounding original pressing here..whoever cut the lacquer did a PHENOMENAL job. Curious as to why it went uncredited but I’d love to know who cut the lacquer. The soundstage is effing’ HUGE on this. Very tight mid-range. Very well rounded lows. Brilliant clarity in the highs...yeah the acoustics are remarkable. Hearing every note like they’re playing live right here in front of me. And…correct me if I’m wrong but I believe this is a 120g pressing. Which I absolutely LOVE. All pressing quality aside - this EP is far and away one of the most important and pioneering “slow-core” albums of all time. Calling it beautiful is an understatement.
      Cop an O.g pressing if you can. Well worth it.
