    Mine is a mixed bag...overall sounds good, but some distortion and many sections with crackles no matter how many times I deep clean it with Record Doctor. (And I don't mean the intentional crackles in certain songs like An Echo A Stain or Sun in My Mouth). Disappointing! But I have found that much like Mute Records, almost ALL of One Little Indian original vinyl releases are crappy. Maybe they improved on the re-issues...?

      Album stupendo, verso la fine del disco c’è qualche pop ma nulla di così drammatico. Io l’ho trovato perfetto.

        Mine sounds very distorted :( Jealous of everyone else here who got nice sounding copies.

          The PVC cover will mist the vinyl over time... Be warned...

            This is my all-time favorite album. Hands down. Nothing comes close.

              Isn’t this version being sold for 30 bucks on Amazon?

                My copy sounds fantastic. I will it there is some popping, but I bought it second hand so I think that could be overlooked.
                Some issues from crackling are likely from age as well as the paper inner sleeves.

                  Cocoon is extremely similar to Opiate - Insert from Opiate / Dub Tractor - Opiate / Dub Tractor Split. I'm literally shook.

                    How about the pressing and sound quality? Mine is a little bit too noisy, I mean, the vinyl crackle.

                      Mine is ;

                      Disc 1 - 160g actually
                      Disc 2 - 180g actually

                      What about yours?

                      I guess mine is original press and I bought second hand so might be switched but the number is both TPLP101.
