bought mine second hand and it was covered in dust. after a cleaning, there are some faint pops and cracks, but nonetheless sounds pretty decent. 6.5/10

when the album came out i bought the standard vinyl edition on black vinyl, it was simply unbearable to listen to, there was nothing but pops and then it skipped songs, now i have bought this splatter version, and i must say it sounds just perfect, dead quiet and no pops. so nice

Little to no background noise on my copy. Very clear mix and wide soundstage, listening on a Phillips 777 turntable. Cool looking disks as well!

Very nice distribution of speckles on mine. Aesthetically a 10/10. Audio wise there is almost no surface noise / cracks. The rice paper inner sleeves they came in did well to make sure the record came without a static build up which is a PITA to get rid of in my setup.

Record is quite balanced, bassy and decent soundstage.

Sounds a bit flat with a weaker overall soundstage. No surface noise, but also not a very dynamic sound

my pressing could've looked better but it's still sick. album slaps from track 1 to 14. there's a reason if this is his most famous project

My copy is perfect : a lot of splatters, and the sounds is perfect : deep, not a single pop. So happy with it

Finally got my hands on this pressing. So glad I went for this one, it sounds amazing! Just enough crackle, bass is perfect, honestly everything sounds perfect. It's also one of my favorite albums so super pleased. I know they are doing a restock right now and shipping at the end of the month but since the back cover is different... I was worried the pressing may be different as well.

One of the best pressings in my collections. Disc 1 has minimal red splatter but disc 2 is AMAZING!
