Soundstage/Image: 5
Pressing: 4.5
Absurdly other-worldly indeed quite astounding first pressing just knocks you out. The holographic soundstage is dreamy while the barbed wire detail on top balances on tightly spring-wound basslines. The drum sound snaps and pops. WOW!! This kills the OG CD and every repress I've heard since.
Final Grade: 4.6
