The cover art alone is worth the price, so vibrant it feels like a mini poster. Side B flows perfectly into the title track, and the vinyl itself stayed flat with no skips on my first spin.

The gatefold sleeve has this lovely matte texture that feels premium, and the vinyl itself came perfectly flat with no warping. Sven Wunder’s arrangements really shine on the 12-inch format, the stereo separation is wide and lush.

The pressing is dead silent between tracks, which lets the intricate percussion really breathe. Side A flows beautifully into the closer, and the artwork on the sleeve is a nice touch for display. I've already spun it three times today.
