Spoon and Rafter (2026 Remaster)

The remaster really brought out the warmth in the lower frequencies, and the 180-gram pressing feels sturdy without any wobble. I’ve been playing it on repeat all weekend, and it’s easily become my favorite version of this album.

The vinyl itself is dead quiet between tracks, which makes the warm analog mix really shine. Mojave 3's dreamy country-shoegaze sounds even more spacious on this 2026 remaster. A perfect addition to a late-night listening session.

The gatefold sleeve is sturdy and the inner sleeve is anti-static, which is a nice touch. I’ve been listening on my turntable all week, and the remastered soundstage feels wider than my old CD copy.
