Needles & Grooves

I am also very pleased with it sonically (NO GATEFOLD UGH)

Yeah my only issues with all 3 albums is each copy has one disc with some noise at the end one of the sides. Lost Souls and Last Broadcast have pops at the end of Side A and B, Some Cities has pops at the end of C & D. None of them are horrendous, but the rest of the album sounds perfect so it kinda sucks. Replacements are on the way...

@Melt Face Molly Drop @Joe Mac do either of you have any end of side pops on these? I find it's a common thing especially with a lot of VMP presses, last 30 seconds of the final track can get a bit poppy on some presses...

No sorry. I have no noise on these now. Some Cities had a bit of surface noise for the first couple of plays but it’s settled down and the other two have been quiet from the start.

Cool hopefully the replacement copies will have a clean disc each, the 3 albums all have one totally clean disc, and one with a few pops at the end of the sides... It's like one bad spot for like 6 rotations then fine. But luckily it's pretty minor, but the rest of it it nigh on perfect so... I am debating buying a second copy of Souls just because of how great it sounds..

I'll have to double check, but unless it's super loud and distracting, I may have passed over it as a "might need to clean that later" pop/click.

Mine did have a small seamsplit though, which I deemed fine because I didn't want to deal with Amazon UK again.

I don't know what kind of luck I'm having but so far Amazon.UK CS has been LIGHT YEARS better than US... I wish I didn't have to order from them for these but at least they sent out replacements no questions asked.
