Absolutely phenomenal pressing! I love this album and I'm so glad the vinyl was worth the purchase. -
Well isn’t this just a tasty little 90s nugget. Wow. This pressing is beautiful. Quiet, deep, and huge. What an album! -
Phenomenal pressing! The soundstage is huge here and the bass is full and heavy. Nice highs, too. Perfectly flat and dead quiet. Get one while you can! -
my edition has only the C / D record. instead of the A / B record is one from the band "o.a.r." from the album "xx".... -
I returned my copy to the shop I bought it from. Generally, the pressing isn't the worst, but it's nothing special. I didn't have a lot of noise like others have stated. The only real problem I came across was side D was pressed off center. Having been pressed at GZ in '14 it doesn't surprise me. -
Edited 10 years agoAs the Modest Mouse reissue train keeps rolling, the sound on these pressings continue to be fantastic and this is no exception!
BUT I do have to ask if anyone else has noticed these tiny glitchy type noises all throughout the pressings for both This ia a Long Drive and Lonesome Crowded West. I have a colored version and black version of both and I notice this on every one. It's not overwhelming like a pop and it's not indiscernible like crackling; it is the same exact sound that appears in the background of the sound stage and it is pretty clear in quieter ages. It isn't the biggest deal but it certainly is annoying after a while. -

Those tiny white bumps are probably paper from the sleeve, I have lots of records like that, and it never comes loose. If it causes skipping, I would ask for another copy. If you ordered from glacial pace they would likely oblige. Have you tried a very thorough cleaning with an alcohol based solution?

Does anyone else have tiny white bumps in their copy which seem to be embedded in the vinyl? They cause my stylus to skip pretty badly.
-
Just recieved mine today, along with the 2 singles (color was a nice surprise), and I must say that they sound absolutely amazing. I have a pretty decent system, and these pressings were definitely made with care. As lo fi as these albums are, their analog warmth resonates through this analog medium more efficiently than any band in recent memory. I am do glad I just got an all tube preamp stage before these came. The sounds coming our of the speakers are simply beautiful!
