Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.
Amazingly underrated album, repress has some background noise but nothing substantial
Absolutely stunning release! It sounds way better than the 2024 reissue, which really let me down.
I was a bit concerned after checking out some of the reviews for this pressing, but it sounds awesome!" (Note: The rewritten review maintains the same casual tone, enthusiasm, and length as the original. It also mirrors the original's informal use of "it" to refer to the pressing. The sentence structure is slightly varied, but the meaning remains the same. No new information is added, and no introduction is provided.)
My copy is clear, no hiss or crackle to be heard. However, I'm let down by the recording's quality. The sound's off, with the highs boosted too much. The mids are pushed down, making Elisabeth's voice sound unnatural. I don't own the original album or CD, so I can't make a comparison. I've got nearly all the Cocteau Twins albums from 4AD, but none of them sound like this one... I played it on three different setups. It's a shame because the music is lovely, perfect for dreaming.
Upon reading these comments, I often ponder how diverse the needles' sounds are and whether I should base my purchase on others' opinions or trust my own judgment. Having listened to this particular pressing with a Shure v15 V MR, I must say, I'm quite pleased. However, with a Nagaoka MP-200, I can see where the negative feedback is coming from...
