Amazing Album and a totally perfect Pressing! I repeat to get enough words. Great Pressing!
The quality control for this release is absolutely dreadful. It took me three tries to finally get a copy that didn't have surface noise and only had a slight warp. It's just terrible.
Fantastic album for unwinding and chilling out. The sound quality is superb, with minimal noise. It's definitely one of my top picks and absolutely worth owning.
I'm gradually warming up to this album and genuinely enjoying it, even though Arcade Fire isn't typically my cup of tea—I'm trying to find my way into their music, and isn't that what exploring music is all about? I'm unsure about the sound quality; it's quite good, but I always feel like there's something missing, perhaps intentionally so (I don't have another version to compare it with). Turning up the volume helps a bit (maybe they intended for it to be played loud, and that's the solution...), but it's dull when it's quiet. The pressing (I have a second copy, as the first one was faulty) is quite good, and after cleaning, it sounds crisp with no cracking, popping, or distortion. The cover design is above standard. I'd recommend it. Played on: Technics SL-100C, Audio-Technica VM-95ML (sometimes VMN95-E or C), (Rega Fono Mini A2D MK2/built-in phono preamp), Technics SU-G700M2, Yamaha NS-777, Vinyl Cleaner Pro-Ject VC-E Update 20251017: After several listens, I feel compelled to share my thoughts and will intentionally keep my original rating. Initially, this album was quite challenging for me, with too much happening both in terms of content and sound. What I've gathered is that the album requires a certain volume; it's not ideal for quiet evening listening. It's full of energy that needs to be unleashed completely. With repeated listening, many details emerge. Due to the wealth of information, I believe a better listening setup would be beneficial, and then it's truly worth it. My current speakers hold me back, but even with partial upgrades to my listening chain, I've gained more from albums like this. The sound isn't boring as I initially thought. It's astonishing. However, it requires proper and repeated listening. The second pressing isn't perfect either, as the records are slightly bent, but they play cleanly and without distortion, which is the main thing. I'm raising my rating and highly recommend it. Give it time, and it will grow on you... Played on: Technics SL-100C, Ortofon Concorde Music Bronze, Rega Fono MM MK5, Technics SU-G700M2, Yamaha NS-777, Vinyl Cleaner Pro-Ject VC-E
The pressing's alright, but the mastering's just okay, some tracks feel flat, you gotta add lots of extras to your system to bring it to life. Truth be told, this awesome album could really use a better treatment, with more oomph and dynamics.
