    Found a sealed copy at my local independent. Wow, what a great record for the music, production, and pressing.

      An amazing record. My first copy though sounded awful. So much pops and crackles. Sonic cleaning never solved it. Second copy filthy out of jacket and so far much better. Still some loud pops here and there though.

        Got another copy and woah. Incredible. Thankfully the merchant shop is nice enough to take returns and do exchanges.

        This one i have now is outstanding and blows the digital out of the water.

        I guess with this release, it is based on luck of the draw lol

          TOP pressing, from the packaging to the dead quiet vinyl.

            One of my favorite records I own. Amazing pressing and amazing music.

              This is a beautiful piece of art , cover + booklet and the music ! Perfect pressing, top quality, dead quiet and no manufacture faults.

                My pressing is dead quiet and no issues whatsoever. I don't agree with some of the other reviewers here, as this is hands down probably one of the two or three best releases of 2018, and vinyl is the way to hear it. I have ripped a CD and also listened to the Tidal high-res version multiple times through a high-end DAC, and the depth and clarity of the vinyl makes the soundstage so much deeper and much more crisp (especially for vocals and percussion). Also, if you ever get a chance to hear him live as I did in Boulder this year, you should not miss it ... a breathtaking one-man show.

                  Just picked up a copy today. Have had a digital copy of the album for a while and the album itself is great (though maybe not *quite* as great as SPACES). However I was disappointed to discover that I might have a defective copy. That or the wax just can't keep up with the crazy bass on the first few tracks. Either way I'm getting not only distortion but actual skipping, as if the stylus is literally jumping from the heavy bass. Needless to say, I was disappointed, especially since this isn't exactly a cheap disc. Hopefully it's just a manufacturing error and I just got a dud, because otherwise this is a beautiful record.

                    The pressing sounds great BUT my copy has some very annoying noises on the D side, not sure how to describe them, not pops, not scratches, some kind of friction noises that sound a bit like digital artifacts. Anyone else?

                      Absolutely silent pressing - sounds great! The packaging is superb too - looks like something you'd expect of a limited or special edition rather than a standard edition. I'm glad Nils Frahm's exploring new territory here although I prefer his more acoustic side as opposed to his more electronic offerings. I though the choral elements worked really well. I'm glad that I have no idea where Nils will go from here - predictability is boring!
