    The sound quality is horrible on this glowing record as others have already said. Do yourself a favor and do not buy this overpriced piece of garbage. Sold mine away and bought it on black vinyl. To be honest, even the colored versions sound better than this release. Trust me and save your money. Not worth it.

      It looks cool glowing on your turntable-- but it sounds terrible with waves of static and other distortions littered throughout all sides. I'll never play this copy again. This is typical of glow in the dark vinyl records BTW. Likely has something to do with the chemicals used in the vinyl. Horrid sound quality results.

        I just found this at a record store, new, sealed, had no idea it was glow in the dark until I came here and took my album cover in a dark room! Cool!

            My best friend won the glow in the dark edition, and gave me his loser edition in thanks of talking him into entering the contest. Yay!

              Is there really a bonus track or isn't it just Irene looping for a bit?

                I grabbed a Loser edition at the Wiltern Theater show on 9/26/12 for $20

                  Has anyone been able to snag a glow or Loser edition of Bloom at any of their recent shows? I'm not seeing any reports of people with their special edition records.

                    Does anyone have this in Mint Condition? It seems as though for the listening parties, the record stores played this specific record and then gave it away (thereby rendering it at most a NM). Just was wondering...
