    My copy is whisper quiet - number 224. No playback issues either.

      Fantastic pressing from Music on Vinyl. The sound is clear and deep, without sounds and noise, and the quiet parts are completely silent. The dynamic range is also large. The sleeve and insert are also good quality, and that clear & black mixed vinyl fits the album perfectly. My copy has no problems on B1 track.

      My copy is MOV 001147.

        For being a Ministry fan since Psalm and owning all the Jourgensen / Barker albums I never really got into this album compared to the others. In regards to this pressing, it's flat and quiet and smokey gray looks pretty cool too.

          Just got this. No skipping through out any tracks. However even after a run through a spin clean, there’s some surface noise. Not much, but not silent. It is colored vinyl so it’s expected I guess.

          Sounds great otherwise. Comparable to the original. Love the marblized vinyl.

            I have confirmed this pressing does not have the skipping issues the prior MOV release had on Breathe (and the rest of side two). Glad to have a playable version. The smoke pressing also looks pretty sweet.
