    Absolutely amazing pressing, The surface noise is pretty much inaudible no loud pops or anything. This album already has some of the best mixing of any metal album and it sings on this pressing, definitely one of the cleanest sounding records in my collection.

    The color is pretty cool too, it's almost a dark clear smoky color, that being said you can't really see that it's colored while it spins on a black mat

      Album sounds incredible. Like really, really good. Only bad part is I got two copies of side 1+2. Back to Walmart for this guy. That aside, it sounds great.

        A very good pressing of an iconic album: very little surface noise, and a lot of slam.

          A very good sounding pressing of an awesome record. It sounds as good as I’ve ever heard this record sound. The bass and the drums are nice and punchy as they should be on a Metallica record. Dynamics on the quieter moments of the record (The Unforgiven/Nothing Else Matters) are very good. The sleeve is a nice sturdy gloss unlike some of the Walmart/Target/etc records which come in cheap cardboard. The discs are a black/grey smoky translucent which is a very nice touch. Can’t beat it for the price!

            I have never owned this album in any format but have heard all these songs hundreds of times. When I listened to Enter Sandman for the first time in this release, I heard hi-hat sounds I had never heard before. Simply an amazing pressing!

            Mine came with poly-lined sleeves (always a nice touch) and both records were super clean (I still wash my new records), however the second record did have some static right out of packaging. Cleaned both records and used my anti-static brush. Still heard some pops on the second record while playing. First record was super quiet.

            Overall really satisfied with this release! Soundstage is really nice and the drumkit sounds fantastic to me. Will use the anti-static brush on the second record again to see if those pops go away

                    Wax is flawless, mastering is fantastic! The vinyl is a tad quiet, but does benefit from some crankin'.
