    It's a masterpiece from beginning to end. Probably the best album of 2012.

      such a good album! and such a good pressing too! I do own one album -at this time- of both, and this press is so good! I feared it would lack something but no! good amount of bass, medium and treble.
      The cover album is in very good quality but it's made of plastic I believe.

      Very good pressing for a such a good album.

        Does anybody know what year the second pressing was made? I recently got this album. When redeeming the digital files the website displayed it as "Love This Giant - Second Pressing"

          David Byrne did it again! Yet another innovative and fresh sounding record from the talking head, written with the brass section in mind. Grooves the hell out of your record player and refined by the voice of St. Vincent. One of the best LPs from 2012.
