    The printing quality is low too. Not much detail low contrast and sharpness.
    The real joke is the label print quality on side B.
    Its a shame, maybe the worst quality print i ever came across.

      Hmmm, while it lacks low end and might be a little flat, but it does not sound fatiguing when you turn it up. Also my copy has minimal surface noise. Unfortunately, I have never listened to either the 1988 CD or LP, so there is nothing to compare it to. IMO it sounds better than most modern metal recordings. And to put things into perspective, it sounds better than ...And Justice for All. :)

      Update: I have bought used Japanese Edition CD of this album (VI-5196, 1992,https://discogs.descargarjuegos.org/release/2585563-Helloween-Keeper-Of-The-Seven-Keys-Part-II).
      I realize it is highly subjective and error prone, but performing level matched comparison, to my ears the CD has more lower end and it is slightly more dynamic.

      My two cents....

        I am listening to this vinyl release for the first time.
        Having read all the negative reviews i just wonder if we listen to the same 2015 pressing?
        When i compare this vinyl to my old cd from 1988, which i just did, eveyrthing sounds great.
        Yes, you have to crank up the volume, but that's why you have a volume knob on your amplifier. Than it all sounds great.

        Another excellent Noise records re-release.

          I just finished listening to Keep Of The Seven Keys Part I, I put Part II and I had crank the volume to double the level at what I was using for part I. After reading other people post it is not me. This press is a piece of sh*t.

            I agree with other reviews. This pressing sounds rather flat and disappointing for the most part. Don't buy it. It's not even close to that 4.7 rating imo. I give it a 2 at most.

              awful press, It sounds like MP3 on vinyl...flat, no space.

                In my opinion a lot of high and few low, the sound is flat. It feels like you're listening to cd. Sound is compressed, no surround sound.
