Ah, the only good Metallica album. :colbert:

You're one of those, huh?

BTW this pressing also has Blitzkrieg and Am I Evil, which is good! But that means it runs about 30 mins per side which... uh, I'll report back in an hour with the sound quality.

Seeing those on vinyl feels bizarre to me. Like strictly feels like they exist for a 00's FYE CD rack only, but somehow an alternate universe opened up and this happened.

Ooof yeah I’m glad I sought out my megaforce label Metallica records years ago. Got a Kill Em All with a small tear on the back of the cover for $80. Disc looks brand new.

Dang.

Well the crammed '88 Elektra sounds good. Nice & heavy, downside though is I had to crank my stereo to +10 instead of the usual +3 so naturally there's enough noise on the rare quieter passages like Pulling Teeth to sound there's a piano burning in the background (although that does add a kvlt-ish flavor).

Funny, that's usually what they say when a Metallica stan walks in.

Usually you have the "Cliff Burton only" types not "Mustaine-written only."

If you ever come across an Italian pressing of Dead Kennedy's Fresh Fruit, avoid it. Extreme levels of groove distortion.

Slight overreaction on the Fresh Fruit disc. The distortions in Jello's voice happen on the same places as it does on the digital, just slightly emphasized.

All the mass pressings for this album from what I've heard have been a horror show. Maybe the limited pressing will allow for better QC / hot new stamper?

I think my biggest vinyl epiphany came when I found a method that successfully clean the poo poo out of vinyl and sound 40-80% less crackly.

2nd was figuring out I had my alignment wrong the whole time. 3rd was learning tube-rolling is a thing.

Played Van Halen's 0U812 over the weekend. The vinyl's the fullest that album is ever gonna sound (pretty bright though).

Flip record over and do it again.

They sound great, but they're also the only pair of larger speakers I've ever owned (or technically inherited from my dad who bought them new in like 89-ish).

In Rainbows is their masterwork.

Although I envy anyone who has a pre-2008 Parlophone copy of OK Computer. Apparently after that point, the original master tapes were lost and so all the Capitol discs are just the CDs pressed on vinyl.

Also the person you quoted has amnesiac as the worst Radiohead album and that is the opinion of a twisted lunatic.

I was on a second or third date with this older metal\goth musician and Bauhaus came up on my mix I was playing for us; he took the opportunity to tell me the story of how he was introduced to them by a couple of super hot witches (his words) and how they were all over him at some party. For some reason I went out with him a few more times, but realized his favourite topic of conversation was reliving his heyday and how many girls were totally into him all the time, but trying to play down like he never really cared about them...I should've taken the Bauhaus clue and peaced out then.

Who knew Bauhaus were such harbingers of failed relationships.
