      This is my copy, which was bought on release. Sounds amazing

        Sound is really, really good, though pretty quiet.
        Once you turn it up and adjust the eq, it thumps and is very clear.
        Definitely their best sounding OG vinyl release and possibly their best release overall.

          *not a review*. Does this sound better than the US release which was pressed on one LP only?
