    My pressing is dead quiet, no discernible distortion and warp-free. I compared this pressing to Tidal MQA via my BS Node. These MOV reissues are fine as hell. Stream sounds good but a bit lifeless and flat compared to the pressing. Drums/cymbals have more breadth/splash, bass punches harder, guitar riffs feel grittier, and Patton vocals clear as hell.

    Pressing: 4.5
    Album: 9.22

      Sounds so good. Minimal noise and punchy drums and bass!

        It's certainly better sounding than the thin sounding original CD

          Great sounding vinyl. However, I'm surprised to find out that it omits two tracks (War Pigs and Edge of the World) from the original version. This leaves me unsatisfied as I was expecting to listen to the entire album.

            Awesome sounding reissue of a great album, as per usual with Music on Vinyl. Highly recommended.

              Very pristine sounding reissue (I hold the black pressing by MOV). although quite expensive, it offers a neat, and quite album (sound wise). You'll be pleased.
