derek123 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I picked up a copy of the Cherry Red Records reissue of this a few weeks ago. 10-15 seconds into the first song it starts clicking. Pretty loud and consistent for about 1-1.5 minutes. My local record store ordered me another copy and I took it back and swapped it out today. They checked it and confirmed the click. I get home and this copy does the same thing but louder and longer. What the hell is up with this? Anyone else have this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdkaiser Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Welcome to modern vinyl pressings. It's a total crapshoot. 50% of the time they're pressed well, and the other 50% of the time they're either warped, pressed off-center, scuffed up, or scratched. Nature of the beast, unfortunately.

Checked it immediatly after I read your post - cause it was sitting there sealed since buying it...I am in Europe, I don't know if we have pressing from different plants.

NapalmBrain Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I did not have any of these issues either sorry you got a couple duds, you kind of need to crank it but outside of that sounds pretty good. I believe it is only a Euro press which is why they are $41.99 stateside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derek123 Posted January 19, 2020 Author Share Posted January 19, 2020 Yeah I did notice that it was on the quiet side. Sounds amazing other than the first minute or so of side 1 disc A. Trying to sort it out with the record store now. Thanks for the replies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
