Excellent album but disappointing pressing. Aside from the surface noise (mostly reduced after a wet cleaning), the LP was pretty warped right out of the shrink wrap. My tone arm moves back, forth, up, and down during play.

Gave it a quick wet clean and the noise has reduced significantly.

Only a bit noisy for me, noticeable in quiet moments of which there are a lot of throughout the album.

My original copy has a really heavy warp too. Emailed VMP to see if something can be done.

Has a pretty pronounced warp but still plays fine. Center hole wasn't totally carved out so I took a knife to it. Sound quality is good though so I'm content.

Very quiet pressing, loads of hissing and clicks. Volume changes dramatically over the song course which is kind of bizarre. Though kudos to the packaging, the sleeve, wallpaper, the gatefold jacket. They've made an excellent job with it.

Somehow my review got deleted... anyway I received a replacement for my noisy disc from VMP and the new disc is absolutely perfect, dead quiet and sounds fantastic.

Very quiet from what I can tell, sounds great. I've had Dead Ocean variants that were kinda hit or miss, this one sounds great for sure. Highly recommended.

Perfect, dead-quiet, flat pressing. This record will never sound better than it does right here.
