I picked up the clear vinyl edition last year and am very impressed by it...probably my favorite new release of 2017 and I'm still playing it frequently a year later. To me it holds up just as well as her work with Ladytron, which is high praise. While it does feature a more pop-oriented and perhaps more accessible sound overall, it's still not too far removed from her music with the band either, and it is just as layered and engaging to reward repeated listening. The same knack for crafting memorable melodic hooks framed with sleek synth textures that brought attention to Ladytron is evident here. If it's less experimental and more focused on the traditional pop-song structure, it certainly doesn't suffer at all as a result. While I'm looking forward to the next Ladytron album currently in the works, I will gladly continue to support Marnie's solo releases as well based on the strength of her first two solo releases!

How is the sound quality for this reissue? I had heard mixed reviews for the RSD pressing from Rough Trade (some copies were skipping also) so I'm wondering if this a newly pressed batch...has anyone encountered any issues with their copy? I'm wondering how it compares to the original 1995 UK or US vinyl pressings.
