Trying to coordinate manufacturing, shipping, and packaging across factories and possibly parts of the world would jack the price up even more and be a giant pain in the ass. I am kind of surprised they aren’t offering the Blu-ray as a standalone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillybhatesme Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Just pulled the trigger on the LP + 7" from Amazon. Good deal for a classic record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Heart Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 If you don’t own the BG / Pallas pressing I’d absolutely recommend getting this as it sounds great. I’m gonna compare it to the MFSL 24k next; have a fun week ahead of me. But yah, this version sound great. phillybhatesme 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroNowhere Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 The copy I ordered from Amazon (thanks for the above tip) arrived this evening. I just jammed the first side and it sounds great to me. phillybhatesme 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntslash Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 The 30th anniversary press sounds great. I haven't tested it next to my BG/Pallas pressing yet, but on first listen I didn't hear anything that was too noticeably different. Bass might be a little better and the cymbals might be a touch brighter. This version has a lot of power to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNEAKORDS Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) my 1xLP order from amazon CA shipped this morning Edited November 15, 2021 by SNEAKORDS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad Heart Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 The BG is great and this pressing is great. BG is natural and the 30th brings Kurt’s vocals to the front. Different flavors for different moods. It’s nice to have options. Both great in their own regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faaip de oiad Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Haven't heard it yet. But I did listen to the 7". Sounds fine as far as 7 inchers go. I don't think I'll be doing an ABCD comparison soon. But I'd be damned if I didn't tho, lol! The one on top is the 20th anniversary deluxe 4LP double gatefold which is the Chris Bellman cut (which is quite good). Feel a little douchy showing all these, buttfuck it... phillybhatesme 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re the first person I’ve hear say the 20th is good. That thing is brick-walled to hell. Just spin the BG cut (Pallas or Target, same plates).

Just spin the BG cut (Pallas or Target, same plates). True it's not the best. I mentioned that coz so many people didn't like it. It's not really that bad. Alittle noisy. But it is brickwalled. That's why I'm hard pressed to actually do an AB with the 20th. I'd like to get my hands on an MF. From what I hear, it's the most balanced. I play my PALLAS the most as I feel it's my hardest hitting on my system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoFi didn’t really didn’t do Nevermind the justice it usually does for all their other pressings. It’s just hype for the label at that price. You’re honestly not missing much. I can send you a MFSL 24k CD rip if you want. It’s really good. If you’re gonna spend money you should get the OG, but it’s only a bit better than the BG. So worth it if you’re a die hard collector with the money. faaip de oiad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faaip de oiad Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 So did anyone see Mike's rant today about the Nirvana curfuffle? It's really sad if indeed things are headed in that way. They're only screwing the small record stores. I think we're actually seeing this happen already, what with the latest rsd push backs... Who knows really wtf these Corpse are thinking. Personally i think they're trying to make up for all the supply and demand issues and just dumping everything at the big boxes and letting them deal with the shipping complexities.
