    Bought this record on a whim because I loved Destroyer's "streethawk" so much (get it naowww) and I'm just completely blown away at the sound quality of this LP. I don't know who did the mastering on this because it's not listed in the credits, but I have to imagine it's someone of considerable talent, because this is definitely one of the best sounding records in my entire collection, especially out of all of the releases from the last 30 years. Beautiful.

      Wow this is a great pressing. As good as modern records can sound.

        Sounds really pretty, glad I picked on up low that they’re more wildly available again

          Surprisingly great sound for a record that costs $27. There's random surface noise but it's light and very recessed, not an issue imo. Side C features a song that isn't on the digital version and it's really wonderful. No issues with centering or warping, solid all around.
