Mine sounds great after a nice clean, had to snag a copy before it got pricey like Undertow has. Mine also doesn’t seem to have a double groove, which is a little sad but not too big of a deal. I personally love the EP, very raw and heavy, Hush, Part of Me and Jerk Off in particular are just so rad, and the title track is iconic. Fingers crossed their whole discography gets nice quality deluxe reissues like NIN has. -
It's just an ok EP to be honest with you. Shown that Tool had potential which they soon achieved after this and then went into the stratosphere. The live tracks and Opiate are the best things on here for me. In of this particular pressing, it's nothing special. About as good as the sound of the CD pressing.
