    Brilliant record from Alex and the boys, it sounds fantastic on my sliver vinyl copy - no surface noise at all. A lovely package.

        Recently found a copy. Sounds excellent with minimal surface noise/issues. Instrument separation and dynamics as good as I would expect on a no frills pressing. Love the booklet. A great record to add to my collection.

          Pre-ordered this in 2018 the only Arctic Monkeys album I own, listening to it for the first time since maybe last year great album not like any other monkeys album prior the new style of tracks and conceptual album was successful in my opinion. However on my copy, side 1 especially on A1 Star Treatment it was so loud and awful sounding even after adjusting the weight of my needle and cleaning it 3+ times I could not rid it of the static sound. The Ultracheese might be the best song off of this record, even after playing this album back when it first arrived I always found myself drawn back to that track.

            Is this not the same release as the silver copy exclusive to the Arctic Monkeys webstore?

              One of my favorite bands since their debut album "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not", which became famous through MY SPACE -yes, my space-.

              This album has nothing to do with that debut full of frenetic guitars, which have been protagonists in their other four studio albums.

              Twelve years later, Arctic Monkeys give the protagonism to Steinway Vertegrand piano that his manager gave Alex Turner when he turned thirty. For many fans of the Sheffield band this album is not what they expected but, personally, it seems to me one of the best albums of 2018.

              "Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino" is a very interesting studio work due to its aesthetic risk. A remarkable work.

                Sounds pretty good. I experienced quite some pops and surface noise, although it's not too distracting.

                  I assume there is no difference between a gold, silver or clear heavy weight (180gr) vinyl pressing ?
                  Or am I wrong ?

                      Am I the only one with surface noise in between songs?
