  In certain aspects, this album carries a somewhat mystical and dark atmosphere. It truly captures the essence of a band navigating a rather somber phase. Yet, they're in incredible shape, churning out one masterpiece after another.

• Flawless Mis-printed Vinyl

  5 out of 5 stars
  IrlGuplx21 June 2025United States🇺🇸

  Mis-printed edition boasts pretty good audio & ultra-quiet vinyl. It's flawless from start to finish, ending with the unbeatable Wendell Gee, their most stunning track ever created.

• Wider Sound, Stronger Bass

  5 out of 5 stars
  ernh_zg13 June 2025United States🇺🇸

  In contrast to https://www.discogs.com/release/6329539-REM-Fables-Of-The-Reconstruction-Reconstruction-Of-The-Fables, the sound stage here feels a bit wider, with more emphasis on the bass and kick drum. The vocals are a tad less prominent, but that's likely due to the original recording's murkiness, which actually adds to its Southern Gothic charm. The jangly guitars still stand out a lot. As a drummer, I really dig the extra attention given to the rhythm section in this mix. And hey, don't forget the pops on my original copy!

• Vintage Pressing Delight

  4 out of 5 stars

  Excellent pressing, mastered by Jack Skinner over at Sterling Sound. Adore the cover's texture and the inner sleeve's multi-font design, which gives off that vintage catalog vibe.
