10C Backspacer vinyl sound problems

Does "Amongst the Waves" on anyone else's Backspacer vinyl sound like complete dog poop? I can't even listen to it, it just degrades as the song plays and by the end it's just a mess of static. I've calibrated my cartridge and other records sound fine as well as the rest of the Backspacer album. Just this one song. Anyone else's have this problem?

    I have listened to that track repeatedly on my machines (mkII) and have not heard a problem. Perhaps you could contact the manufacturer and get it replaced, because that song needs to played..LOUD :mrgreen:
    When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

    I noticed this too, sounds horrible. Like you say it's just that one song so makes me think its the way its recorded. Noticed it very first time I listened.
    buy the ticket, take the ride.

    My turntable is direct-drive so that's not the problem.

    The whole vinyl sounds like crap, almost literally.

    Everything I've read about record players, belt drive is the way to go??
