Asking Alexandria 2LP

The marble swirl pattern on this vinyl is even more vivid in person than in the mockups, and the pressing captures the band's raw energy without any surface noise. Spinning it on my turntable feels like experiencing the album for the first time all over again.

Was thrilled to snag this for Record Store Day — the marble swirl pattern looks even better in person against the red base. Both discs play clean with no surface noise, which is always a relief with colored vinyl.

The translucent red with marble swirls looks incredible under good light, exactly like the photos. That said, the pressing has a bit of surface noise between tracks that I wasn't expecting, though the overall sound is decent for a live-in-the-studio capture.
