    After reviewing Meliora and bashing its mix, this EP actually manages to overcome most of my previous complaints. Much brighter and less flat sounding.

    Quiet and well pressed vinyl.

      My copy has two Side B labels, curious how rare this is?

        Favorite track is "Bible" which I think this cover is better than the original, and second favorite is Ghost's original "Square Hammer". This is an excellent EP, and I highly recommend listening to it. I discovered this through a streaming service, loved it, and went out to buy it on vinyl. 5 out of 5 stars!

          Any one else's copy have a ridiculous amount of sibilance on the vocals at the start of "I Believe"?
