    An ultimately disappointing first stereo edition on vinyl. On the plus side, beautiful foil printed cover art. But the extra thick and heavy gatefold sleeve is difficult to squeeze the lps into and out of, which carries the danger of scratching. The sound is so-so - there's practically no stereo as such to speak of - most everything sounds sandwiched between the speakers and there's little soundstage most of the time, though there are some keyboard sounds that occasionally appear left and/or right. The pressing is ok, fairly quiet. At the end of the day I decided against this album - I like some of the gothic vibe and there's some decent bass playing but Corgan's whine and leaning heavily into repetitive notes got to irritate me and now I cannot unhear it. Ho hum reject pile.

      For as much as this album costs, I would expect it to have nice inner sleeves and not the cheapest paper ones.

        Well this my thrid copy now while my last 2 copies had scratches deep grooved paper chafing.
        This copy looks clean disc one had 3 x5 minutes es in my ultrasonic to 8/10
        Disc two I'm at 2×8 minute es still continuous surface noise but finally starting to quieten down a fair bit but not fixed on side D second last song.
        Starting to think was this song recorded like this 🤣
        Only one song so I'm going for another few ultrasonic cleans see if I gain clarity. If not atleast the rest of the tracks are mint now after ultrasonic cleaning the hell out of both 🤣

          Quiet, flat pressing, beautiful presentation. The sleeve is a little bigger than standard size so it doesn’t fit in the protectors I have. Minor gripe!

            Noisy pressing with groove rubbing in the second track. Needs a lot of deep cleaning to get to a listenable state. Compared to the 2023 pressing this is poor.

            Edit. Grabbed another copy and it sounds much better.

              Absolutely amazing!!!. Good sound and pressing, but lots of dirty fingers on the surface. 😳😳😳

                Gigantically beautiful record! Everything from sleeve to mixing, mastering and pressing is very very neat to my taste. Back in the nineties this was my first approach to TSP as a Christmas gift CD, this 25 years later encounter makes me think this album evolved like wines. Maybe the best TSP album for me.

                  I’ve recently read that copies in the US feature an entirely different runout than what’s listed here. They’re allegedly pressed by GZ and they supposedly sound way better. Impressive, even.

                    Great album but an absolute garbage pressing. Jagged edges, worst I've seen. Off centered, mislabeled. Wait for the repress on this thing.

                      Really open and detailed sound, suffers from slight inner groove distortion but still sounds great and the packaging is absolutely beautiful
