    Everything has been said and written about the amazing sound quality (and everything is true). But it's a shame they stopped housing the sleeve in a PVC protective sleeve. And where is the booklet ?

      Perfect pressing, beautiful music. The stereolab reissues are a prime example on how to make wonderful reissues - though strictly speaking, this is a new release. Only downer is that they didn't continue with the limited edition clear vinyl pressings from last year - would have been cool to get them all in one color :)

        this version is black vinyl in mirriboard sleeve? I've seen photos of a color vinyl version (kind of orange + black) but it doesn't seem to be listed yet.

          Echoing some of the comments below - this is one of the finest pressings. Sounds perfect.

            This is how new vinyl SHOULD sound. Clean, perfect, flat, no issues. Sounds amazing. Everytime I get one of the new Stereolab releases, it makes me realize how new pressings should sound and how you shouldn’t have to immediately wash and clean a brand new record. The mirrorboard gatefold is super sweet too

              Flawless quality. Vinyl is flat, quiet, and crystal clear (soundwise). Beautiful packaging.
