Needles & Grooves

Yay, for great album. Boo for bad press. I'm almost scared to spin my press of this and Mordecai.

My Mordechai is a little noisey, this is a train wreck.

Oh damn. Mine has some slight noise on the intro of side A but after that it’s dead quiet.

Mine is noisy throughout. There is also quite a bit of sibilance. I also pretty much always want my vinyl to sound better than Spotify and this doesn’t... so ymmv. It was disappointing.

Especially after Haim knocking my socks off yesterday.

Did you get the Magnolia version of Punisher?

Nope, indie Merlot swirl

I'm keeping hope alive that the Magnolia one is decent.

Yeah sadly dead oceans standard. There is some crackle on mine but thankfully no sibilance. Such a good album does deserve better.
