I bought this as an impulse buy while picking up cat food. It sounds incredible. Nice color vinyl too.
-
Kinda crazy how good all of these Walmart copies of Metallica’s discography sounds. Damn good pressing. Their colored copies of Kill Em All AND Master of Puppets sound just as good. -
My copy had noise and sounds really compressed. There's also an annoying little piece of leftover plastic on Escape so it clicks for about 20 seconds and I can't get it off. Looks damn pretty, but I didn't like it at all.
-
These Walmart colored pressings are limited like sand on a beach is limited. Sound great though so there's that... -
Walmart does it again! My copy was in perfect condition. No warp, and the electric blue vinyl looks amazing. The sound quality is spot on, very low noise, no pops or cracks and killer mix. For 22 bucks is a steal. Grab it! -
Best Metallica record in my opinion my best sounding Metallica record too just amazing all around such a thrash record the cover even makes it more thrash -
-
A very good & noiseless pressing.
No pops, no scratches on my copy.
Gorgeous color.
Very pleased. -
The color on this thing is great. I prefer black vinyl, but I won't turn down color variants... And this one is gorgeous. -
Amazing pressing for a really great price. Along with the beautiful color. I would 100% recommend this even if you already have a different pressing.
