Billie Eilish – When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?

The glow in the dark pressing was 1.) My first Billie record ever and 2.) My first record I ever bought. The record is one of the coolest that I own, I absolutely adore the glow in the dark, not only is it unique but it's also just fun to show off. The problem I have with this record is the amount of skips, pops and surface noise the vinyl makes. I noticed that during when the part is over there was some pitching issues but its nothing I let bother me. Another problem with this record is the warp that it had. It came with a terrible warp which was really bothersome to me. I obviously love the album regardless but if I had to pick between this pressing and my orange one, the orange is a clear winner.

I adore Billie and this was my first ever vinyl! So, it holds so much meaning to me. But unfortunately, it skips a tonnn. I like the glow in the dark pressing so much and I will forever treasure this record, but I recommend getting another pressing for actual usage. I got the apricot pressing a few months back and it's SUCH an upgrade. Absolutely beautiful and I gave that one a 5/5. Obviously, the album itself is 1000/5 but pressing wise this was definitely a letdown.

Not a terrible GOTD. Better than almost any picture disc I've listened to. The fact of the matter is that unless you're blasting this on super loud volume or have a really high end setup, the crackles arent going to bother you. However, this is largely due to the simple fact that the mastering really isnt great and the crackles get lost in the bass distortion

This glow-in-the-dark version was my first copy of Billie Eilish - When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, and I was disappointed. Even after a thorough ultrasonic cleaning, there is a continuous light crackle throughout the album. It is especially noticeable during quiet ages, like at the end of "Xanny", or throughout "Listen Before I Go" and "I Love You", where the crackle pulls me out of an otherwise trance-like moment. Although the album is centered fine, there is a slight warp (although not enough to cause any WOW in the audio). This is why I wish artists would focus on putting out high quality black vinyl first, and release the souvenir colors and picture discs second.

Anyway, my second copy is the lime-green version of Billie Eilish - When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, and I am happy to report that the surface noise is much better and there is no warp at all.

My suggestion... if you want an album to look at, then buy the glow-in-the-dark version...if you want an album to listen to, then buy the lime green version. (I have never heard the copper version, so I can offer no opinion.)

After cleaning the record with my machine I heard less distortion and cracks even if the pressing is not a good one because of the glow in the dark material

epic album marred by a terrible master/pressing. Distortion pretty much ever time the bass goes in to sub-territory. frequently vocals and hi end are hissy and blown out... You can hear the terrible audio quality in the Juno Records clips, this is definitely one to Try Before You Buy.... seems like it's not a good sign that there are currently 25 copies for sale here on discogs... all 'mint'

Alright I typically don't do bad reviews, but I was so excited for this one, even knowing the bad history that glow in the dark vinyl has...But this thing is barely even listenable at points. The bass on 'Bad Guy' is horrific, and surface noise is present throughout. DO NOT BUY this, even for retail. Unless you just want something to hang on the wall this is a waste of vinyl imo. Needless to say I sold it directly after the first listen, and on principle I don't see myself getting a second copy of this.

Honestly, not bad at all for a glow in the dark pressing. Even on "when the party's over", which is not only a more quiet track, but also an inner groove track, the noise isn't enough to distract from the music. The mix is very rich and dynamic as well which helps! Great album too 🤘🏼

i was really hesitant to keep this record with all the comments about the sound quality, but i didn't have any sound issues with mine. on songs that i thought sounded a little off, i played it against what was on spotify and it's pretty similar. i have no issues.

I've noticed there is a lot of surface noise and in my opinion really distracts from the overall sound quality. If you want a better sounding record I'd recommend not getting the glow in the dark version
