Imagine Dragons – Night Visions

I just got a hold of this copy and I'm shocked to see the amount of hate this pressing has. After playing through I don't have any complaints and I enjoyed it thoroughly, so I wonder what happened here? The vinyl is 180 gram and plays flat and the poly-lined sleeve is nice.

Terrible pressing. Jesus Christ, it's like I want to throw my turntable to the wall. Fucking horrible, unlistenable crap.

Although I like this album on digital medium, the mastering of this version is not suitable for vinyl. The ultra compressed sound makes it sound really bad.

yikes. Radioactive is about half the length it's supposed to be due to the skippings on the pressing. my copy is crystal clear of any dirt or scuffs, i went as far as checking my cartridge and my counterweight adjustment, same as other folks said below, (and honestly heres to us LOL no record in shrinkwrap should have any music collector and enthusiast messing with their setup, so don't worry it wasn't just you!). there's such a weird warbley thing going on when i looked at it from eye level almost like it was pinched with something , definitely not a warp, i have some gnarly warped records that play fine on my setup because the grooves are playable and clean. This record is cleaned alright, but the grooves playability? It's almost like theyre smushed on the outside. It looks as if someone fiddled with it during the pressing - there's no fixing it because the damage seems to be internal. i'd be curious to know if anyone has the same problem with the first track as I did? it is literally about 1:30 seconds of skipping over every second line of the song LOL it continues vaguely in tracks 2 and 3

OMG what a terrible sound quality, i thought there was something wrong with my cartridge but that was not the case.. After I played another record i was sure! I don't recommend buying this pressing, not worth your money!

Worst sound quality record I've ever heard. Can't believe someone gave the okay to this mess.

Super album !
Dommage que la qualité du pressage ne soit malheureusement pas au rendez vous.

Je confirme les commentaires précédents, c'est dégueu. Impossible pour moi de l'écouter en intégralité : les voix sont une bouillie infame, la batterie est ridicule, aucune aération, aucune séparation entre les instruments,... Ca fait partie avec le GIRL de Pharell Williams de mon top des flops des vinyles modernes, des concentrés de tout ce qu'il ne faut pas faire. A fuir si vous avez un système capable d'un tant soit peu de précision.

Le son est absolument pourri. La saturation rend l'écoute désagréable.J'ai du mal a croire que le master soit validé par la production.

I totally agree with the comments about the poor sound quality (too much distortion). Actually I first though that my cartridge had an issue, then I played it on Tidal HiFi and found that the sound was the same.
That's a pity because I like the songs on this lp, but I cannot enjoy it totally because of the distortion.
