Reviews

This is a stellar pressing. Whenever I second guess myself and think my setup is rubbish, I put this on and it’s all good again.
Get it.

Anyone else’s side A terribly off-center? My needle sways back and forth a lot, to the point that I can hear speed fluctuations during 'Better Living Through Chemistry' and 'Monsters In the Parasol'. Curious if they're all like this or just mine. -
Queens of the Stone Age's 'Rated R' was one of the first records I added to my vinyl collection and, overall, it was well worth it. I say this in relation to the sound of my particular pressing. It is absolutely superb and plays wonderfully on my system. Full credit must go to the mastering of these records on vinyl.
That leads on to my next point. When purchasing this, I must confess that I did have to pay a bit of money for this one. However, rest assured: it was well worth the asking price. The sound of 'Rated R' on vinyl, when compared with an iPod or CD release, will blow you away; I guarantee it.
So, to conclude, I would highly recommend a purchase of 'Rated R' on vinyl. I really cannot stress here how well these Queens records sound on vinyl, a top job has been done.
I hope this review helps. Thanks for reading.
