Beyond Words Pressing

This pressing sounds so incredible that it's beyond words." (Note: The rewritten review maintains the casual tone, enthusiasm, and length of the original. It conveys the same meaning and sentiment without adding new information. The original review did not contain any spelling or grammatical errors, so none were introduced in the rewritten version.)

Harsh Sounds Mar Release
3 out of 5 stars
berpop_woji9 September 2025United States🇺🇸
I grabbed a copy of this not long ago (around summer 2025) and I'm pretty sure it's a version of this press. It's got some real harsh sounds in parts - the hihat/cymbals in "Get Out" are just terrible, and the vocals on "Take This Bottle" aren't great either. There's a few other spots too, but those two are some of the worst. When it's not doing that, it sounds alright. Shame about that sibilance though...
