      Zero complaints on my copy! Pressed by blackbelt Levi Seitz. Mine came in with no warp and the record itself was actually super clean right out the gatefold. And probably one of if not my best sounding record in my collection actually… my only complaint is i wish you could actually see the cover art lmao.

        No warp at all. Great mix and pressing. Sounds like others got duds but the one I received is perfect.

          Just bought a copy from a shop that had it listed as "clear coloured" and even had a picture of the clear vinyl in the listing, only to receive a black copy in the mail. So heed the advice of the people below if you really want the clear variant.
          I also blame Def Jam's for this huge mix-up. They could've at least put a damn hype sticker on the shrinkwrap for the clear variant.

            Mine came so warped that I cannot play it, extremely disappointed as it’s one of my top albums of 2024 and waited so long for it to arrive, baring in mind it became available for preorder in may.

              You have to really look close but the cover does say DARK TIMES, but at least the record sounds great

                It’s bizarre how awful the cover art looks and the gatefold design is also really lame. Record sounds pretty dang good tho.

                  As expected, another poorly pressed record. Warped, offcentered and has noise

                    Sounds great - flat and quiet - no complaints here!
