    Unfortunately, I'm already on my third copy (replacement), and each one has several short dropouts or skips. AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED THIS? I could literally cry! Otherwise, this album is a masterpiece. (2014, Music On Vinyl)

      I have nothing more to add about the mastering of this record. It’s dynamic and punchy as everyone has already mentioned.

      A big shoutout to the recording engineers and to Andy Wallace for mixing this record so beautifully. The drums sound on this record is so good. Really miss this a lot in modern rock records. For reference anything Queens of The Stone Age has produced in the last few years, the drum sounds so muffled. Here, it’s alive and coming out of my speakers to hit me hard.

      Flat and noiseless discs.

        Amazing pressing! Will put a smile on your face! Really sounds rich

          It's totally unnecessary to the choir & praise this pressing but I'll do it anyway ;) This pressing sounds great! Crisp highs, amazing low-end, dynamic soundstage... what's not to like? Probably the best sounding MOV release in my collection.

            As everyone says - this is immaculately pressed! And having in mind how amazingly detailed and yet subtle this record is, it naturally deserves a high-quality manufacturing.

              Wow. Other reviews here were def not lying, or over-hyping at all. This is an amazing pressing! I’ve never had an issue with other MOV pressings, but I wish all my records sounded this great. This and 10,000 Maniacs Unplugged might be the best sounding records I own.

                Seriously killer pressing. I have mixed views with MOV, but this one is definitely a hit and not a miss. One of the better MOV’s, the discs are solid and flat, the pressing and mastering for this is insanely good. Very good separation of instruments and soundstage, very warm and encoming piece of work here. If you can get one of these for $40-50, it’s a no brainer if a buy.

                  Finally, after a long time wishing for this masterpiece, I have it! A little bit warmer than the streaming, BUT, this is how the music in this format should sound: delicious... Everything is in his space in the stereo spectrum, powerful, full of rich frequencies, dynamic, emotional...
                  It would be awesome if every record of my collection sounds with this sound quality... Thanks again MOV

                      So the hype is real. This gotta be one of the most quiet, well-defined, clear, loud vinyl records I have ever owned! I'm completely astonished by it. Its physical presentation is well curated , and it's beautiful. MOV has delivered once again, and it could be ,without a doubt, one of their best!!!
