    Has some sibilants at the end of both sides, besides that it sounds great.

      This for me is essential for any Bowie collection. One of his best in my opinion. This pressing sounds fantastic, highly recommended.

        Eh, I'd say spend a little more and get the trifold. Cant even read the titles on the back its such a bad printing job. Front cover is fine. Just lacks the physical component the cd had

          No code with mine unfortunately.
          But everything else is the same

            great pressing, great sound, I’d love a re issue like this one of the previous 90s Bowie’s records

              Another welcome addition to the Bowie remastering series. Great sound and pressing. "Heathen" finds Bowie in post-9/11 melancholia struggling with his religious identity. An improvement on the somewhat lack-lustre "Hours...".

                nice pressing. dynamic, solid bass, detailed. maybe a tad on the noisy side in quiet parts.

                  Budenzauber.
                  Great pressing: flat, silent, crisp, dynamic. Would have prefered printed inner sleeves instead of an extra insert but hey, at least the inner sleeves are poly lined.

                    Great album, great pressing. Probably Bowie's best work in the last 25 years of his carrer. A must have album.

                      In the notes it is mentioned that there is no insert with this. I do have an insert which is like the cover a more brown colouring rather then the grey tones of the MOV version..
                      Could anybody else confirm if they indeed do have an insert or not.
