Quality pressing

Is this version censored at all? four more words needed

Why does this album cover art have an orange laser shooting a line across the bottom?

Great pressing! A bit noisey on the quite parts but what can you expect from 48 minute album pressed on 1disc, but overall the sound is very warm. Vocals, bass and drums are also very clear, a very solid release.

Keep on forgetting how great this release is, worth checking out even if you aren't a WASP fan (which I'm not really).

What people don't understand is that the reason this album sounds awful sonically is because of the production, not the mastering or pressing! It's just a badly produced record, and it doesn't sound good on ANY format LP, CD, even SACD (we wish)! I also buy the best sounding pressings, but with some albums they don't sound good period! But fortunately the music is great and worth owning regardless!

I found this release slightly better than the UK press. And the holland lp was in better condition. There is some small inner groove distortion at A4,B6, exaggerated by the album eq.
The EQ of the album in both releases has lots of highs, I have to turn the tone control 1/4 down to be able to listen it on normal volume.

whats the story with the two different album covers? original has 2 klansmen later has 3 one has been added to cover someone not sure who person is thats been covered also the original version has Ayatollah Khomeini feaured later version has him covered by what looks like a christian priest? some info on this change would be cool to find out.
