    This press compared to the 1st 2002 press is not all that different. The sound is great and the instruments are a bit more spaced out and the bottom end is just a tad more noticeable than the original press. Other than that it sounds fairly similar. I’ll take the original over this simply due to the gatefold. Other than that I don’t see too many noticeable differences.

      Fantastic! The record came with loose vinyl scrap at edges, but this did not affect the amazing sound quality. One of my favorite albums, first time experiencing on vinyl and incredibly pleased.

        Not sure why people say its 30 minutes per side, its roughly 23 and 25 minutes.
        It does sound pretty good either way indeed. Glad to have got this pressing before it was completely gone.

          Whoa. This is a *great* sounding pressing. I'm seriously impressed!

            Like all others have said, this is a great pressing. I didn't clean mine, which I usually do before playing. No pops, cracks or anything. It was dead quiet and the sound was fantastic. Well worth picking this one up.

              Really nice pressing. There's something about the LP version that sounds sharper than the CD version. Also near-zero surface noise for my copy and almost no sibilance despite 30-minute sides is pretty impressive. This was originally part of the Heady Fwends Box Set. It was remastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Studios and pressed at Pallas, so I had high expectations going in and they were met. The only other version that is probably worth considering over this one is the 5.1 DVD-A, but I haven't listened to it.

                Sounds pretty amazing concidering its 30 minutes per side each about, way too much usually but good remastering and the overall bassless/no low frequencies thingy going on here somehow really makes this sound very good! I have never heard the original vinyl or any cd before so cant compare. No issues with pressing, except the flimsy cheap material cover and original inner sheet are made of. Great 2000 album, very nostalgic now in 2020 and still pretty futuristic. Love it!

                  My copy sounds great! Quiet pressing with very rich sound. A great repress of an amazing album. Highly recommended!

                    I've gotten two copies of this pressing and both have terrible crackling/clicking problems on both sides of the first song of the record. They look perfect, but it is obvious that there is a flaw in this pressing. Do not buy this particular version.

                      Wow. This sounds incredible. Nice to hear a classic treated so well.
