    God there is some whinging arse hats on here.
    I have an OG and this one. The 2011 is a decent cut. Yes new vinyl can have static and associated muck when first opened. A gripe of mine as well tbo. But I’d be interested as to what audiophile holy grail they have listened to that this pales in comparison to? My guess is zip. Cos the OG had a lot packed onto each side and isn’t light years ahead of this believe me. Everyone’s a sound engineer on here obviously lol.

      This sounds so good! it has the loudest mastering I've ever heard on a vinyl record...

        My copy sounds perfectly fine. Had to give a cleaning, but I also snagged it second hand from an estate sale for $9. 🙌🏻

          I bought my copy in 2011 so I know it's not a repress. The pressing is really clean and flat. If by "audiophile" they mean a heavy and quality piece of wax, I guess it is. I've compared this several times to the original CD and I can't hear any difference between the two. For those complaining about the sound quality, it's most likely the recording itself. It doesn't sound bad to me, but most rock records aren't going to blow your mind from a sound quality / production standpoint. My only gripe with this record is the bass is low in the mix. Still one of my favorite PJ albums.

            Ordered from Best Buy. 3 sides sound great, one side is One Direction. Guess I have to buy another copy. SMH.

              A few pops, not much, but 3rd side is labeled as 4th side, not a big deal, but it's not Pearl Jam on the 3rd side. It's some pop band. No clue who it is, but has anyone ever heard this happening?

                I was excited to pick this up. Upon opening, it was easily the worst-pressed/finished new vinyl I’ve seen in a long time. Dirty/filmy vinyl, rough edges, and both spindle holes look like they were cut by hand - uneven with puckered vinyl. Labels around the spindle holes are split outward from the hole, as if they didn’t fit (which I’m sure is the case). It’s going back without a play.

                  I just picked this up at my LRS this week, new and sealed. Reading all of the reviews/comments herein it looks like I got lucky. Not only does my copy sound great, it was also pristine clean out of the sleeve. Barely a crackle. So glad to have my favorite PJ album on vinyl!!

                    The mastering on this sound pretty good. The pressing sounds like it was done by three guys from Kellogg, Snap, Crackle and Pop.

                      Ordered this last week from Amazon US. My copy has WG/NRP in the runout. Press quality is pretty bad. Both records are quite noisy. Even after two spins cleans. One of the records has jagged edges and gouges. Almost cut myself spin cleaning it.

                      Edit: Replacement copy showed up clean as a whistle. Not a single pop or crackle across either record after a spin clean. Fidelity-wise, this album isn't bad. It's also not fantastic either. It's a good casual listening copy, but doesn't provide an immersive listening experience. No question sound quality could be better.
