I was shocked by how clean this 90s punk classic sounds on the 180-gram vinyl—the bass lines really punch through. Nineteen tracks is a lot of music for one LP, and the sleeve art brings me right back to high school. My turntable hasn't gotten this much use in years.

Finally, a solid pressing of this classic—the bass sounds punchier than my old worn-out copy. For nineteen tracks on one record, the sound quality holds up surprisingly well without getting muddy. A must-have if you missed it the first time around.

The nineteen tracks fit perfectly across the two sides, no cramming or weird fades. I'd only ever heard this on a scratched-up CD, so hearing the bass actually breathe on vinyl is a whole different experience.
