Edited one year agoBeautiful pressing with almost no surface noise whatsoever!! The mix on this makes me appreciate the record more than the digital version!
-
I have exactly this pressing (matrix codes) but it's not 180g and didn't have a code. Is it a missing reissue? -

Edited 4 years agoThe production and mastering are immense - lot's of headroom, great stereo-imaging. And as others said it was really crafted to sound great on vinyl. I am really amazed by the quality of this pressing. I am not going to do an album review, but it's a fantastic debut album. Beautiful stuff.

This album sounds absolutely amazing. It's very quiet and the stereo separation is incredible. This is one of those rare cases in which new artists put out on vinyl and they actually care for the media. Highly recommend on vinyl.

Anybody else got switched labels? My copy has the label of side A on side B and vice versa

Edited 8 years agoI'm usually avoiding records featuring (often annoyingly) dreamy, mellow, seductive female vocals, especially due to the computerised "sexiness" that is so omnipresent in most of what is tagged "modern" r'n'b - its commercially expendable image in the last 20 years which on the other hand is dangerously bordering (if not entirely crossing into) porn, rather than accentuating the erotic and the sensual.
With FKA Twigs, things are audibly and obviously - different. And the equivalent of "mindfuck" - in the broadest sense of the word "sensual". Her videos and lyrics are so explicitly sexual, but where she appears as if to be blown off into the vulgar territory, the performance appears so strong that it leaves you gasping for breath. Although her mellow vocal deliveries might make you feel pretty dizzy at times, she does pull it off tremendously and to great effect, fully in control. Of course, the main ingredient to this success is the FKA's personal taste for weird music that's adding to the pleasant confusion, her voice blending nicely with the often spliced-up and burbling electronics that defy categorisation - turning "seductive" and "sensual" into "threatening" and "challenging".
Sounds too good to be true, but it is.
