    It's a shame these 2022 pressings were rushed out and not finished properly. There is a spelling error on the back cover, track a1 Atopos is hardly visible and the sleeve images are quite dark overall. It appears for the runs of the 2023 represses which have the final master, someone turned the Levels up on all the imagery.

      Great album, brillant art cover and discs colour but.. my copy sounds bad, to much surface noise or something, anyone else noticed?
      • aboutTOdetonate's avatar
        As with all the Fossora pressings that I have, the sound quality is great. Very minimal surface noise here, not as much as the transparent variant but a little more than the black. I love the color of this record so much. Would recommend!

          in case there are some out there who haven't picked a variant yet and are thinking about this one, the sound quality here is immaculate

            It seems I got sent a mispressed copy of this colour variant. The disc label on disc one side B is white. Did anyone else get a copy like this?

              This color version is definitely the best, the burghundy vinyl sounds perfect.
              However, it is not the same version as the deluxe CD.
              To be clear there is no featuring on this vinyl except Emilie Nicolas and Serpenwithfeet.
              So it's interesting to have two versions of the album on two different media.

                “BjörkSpain” has just noticed that there are some editions with differences (about instruments and featurings). Look at this page:

                  Is this a limited pressing in any way, or just an indies exclusive?
