Bought this on a whim since I’d been meaning to grab it for years, and the 2012 pressing sounds thick and punchy through my setup. The production by Nick Raskulinecz really lets the low end breathe, especially on the heavier tracks.

Wasn't sure how the 2012 material would hold up next to their older stuff, but the production here is huge — every riff feels like it's right in the room. The vinyl itself is dead quiet between tracks, no crackle at all.

I've spun this twice already and the pressing is dead quiet — no surface noise at all, which is rare for a modern rock release. The low end on the heavier tracks really opens up compared to streaming it through my phone. Nick Raskulinecz's production sounds huge here.
