Loop (3) – Fade Out

the track Pulse sounds like remixed to me on this release.

For my money, this is their best album... "black sun" is one for the ages, the way that song is put together is a jaw dropper production-wise... but if you want the real face melter, get this on the double 45 RPM version...woof! I actually had this on the factory cassette as well so you can tell I was a bit of a fan... in fact it occurs to me now that I have the US LP, the 45 RPM version, the original cassette somewhere in a box, the original CD release, and an oddball French semi-legit re-release/ remaster... first step is itting you have a problem...

Another excellent pressing by Optimal. The sides are numbered correctly on the record labels. However, the track titles are listed incorrectly for sides 2 to 4.

This pressing is insane. For my money it's their best record (Black Sun....omfg) and this double 45 will blow your face out... Put this up there with "metal box" in of taking your equipment as far as it'll go... This is one of a handful of records that I'm going to put in the coffin with me... Cannot believe that this is not some sort of cult item already, total Sonic blowout here. I have the original US 33.3 pressing as well, as well as some semi-bootleg remastered French CDs (in blank sleeves with an extra disc, per album, possibly from an aborted reissue campaign around 2010?) of the loop catalog, this really is a vinyl pressing for the ages!

Update: this also looks like it was reissued around 2013 in another limited edition... So you kind of have your choice here! Seems like all the issues that weren't signed are still available at quite reasonable prices too...
