Notes

Track C3, DLB, is listed on hype sticker and as track 9 both side C and D labels. It does actually play on both sides, but on side D, it is more of an intro into "Hourglass" and has no banding separating it from the next track.

The final track on Side D (“Get The Lead Out”) is 40 seconds shorter than the version on CD and digital, however it ends on a locked groove which repeats its last few seconds.

Gatefold cover, each 160g black vinyl being housed in a classic black paper inner sleeve with rounded corners

    Back in circulation finally. Got a copy today.
    Pressing is perfect. Surprisingly considering the crap being made these days.

      I've tried quite a few copies of this album now. They all have a pretty serious noise issue. Especially in the left channel. I've tried several black copies and one white. All the same. Luckily I have one copy that is less bad but even that has identical noise patterns in exactly the same places.

      It's a crying shame as the mastering is good but it seems something went badly wrong in the production of these records.

        I believe this is the copy I have (rounded corners on inner sleeves). Had the following printed on the shrink: 'MADE IN CANADA 101109182'. My copy sounds excellent.

          Sounds incredible. Really low noise floor and very punchy. Way better than the streaming version.

            The pressing of this album is amazing. Sonic bliss and quiet as hell.
            I know some people complain that this album doesn't rock but it's my favorite APC album, hands down.

              A numbing dissertation of the general philosophical lens in a pre covid world. APC encapsulates a tight wound anxiety "doomed" at the precipice of a time line that shaped where we are now. Where this album departs from traditional APC sound it lays several layers of unlabored harmony's paired with bountiful guitar and Trible drum lines. While this album may take a few spins to understand and start to form worm like hooks in your brain, I can assure you it is worth being in your collection.

                Good quality quiet pressing. I love the way the songs just flows from one to the next.

                As for the music I love it, lots a of emotion in the majority of the songs, I don’t think I will get tired of this album any time soon.

                  Their best album, no doubt. Every song is crafted well.

                    Honestly a very Boring APC album. A couple really good songs but for the most part feels really overproduced and emotionless. But I'm giving it 5 stars cause I'm reviewing the pressing and not the album itself, which is fantastic. No sound quality issues at all. lots of quiet sections and no surface noise during them.

                      A fantastic A Perfect Circle album. My LPs have no sound quality issues in the quiet sections.
