    I do not have another pressing to compare this to, but my minty, flat, centered, and dead quiet copy presents a very "vocals forward" soundscape where you can pretty much hear the back of Annie's throat - super articulated (so gorgeous!). It took pushing my amp to bring out the rest of the synths and backbeat fully in focus...but when I did the mid and low end absolutely devoured our family room and drove through your chest.

    Literal definition of New Wave cheap heat!

      Album runouts and sleeve match on mine, however, my insert has "AFL1-4958" in upper left corner.
