    Not sure if this was mentioned yet. Has anyone tried cleaning the lp with a good record cleaner like Mobile Fidelity before playing it. Both new & used vinyl has to be cleaned for best results.
    A lot of people have said they cleaned them and still had probs.
    But also, I have never once bought a brand new record that had issues like people are reporting, and I don't usually clean new records before playing them unless they have a lot of particles from the inner sleeve. Every new album I've ever owned had zero static, pops, crackling, etc. I expect new vinyl to sound basically perfect just from past experience.

    Got my replacement today, plays beautifully, thanks UMD/Ten Club!
  • Still have not received LB in Australia so I sent an email saying my copy was damaged and six days later got a replacement - just the vinyl - this shits me that I had to tell a bullshit story and got the album in less than a week but the original that I paid for four months earlier still hasn't got here. Good guys tend to run last.

    For real??

  • I just did the same thing...Emailed saying my copy was damaged and they replied quickly stating they'd send a copy this week. Still waiting on my original copy to turn up.

    Can't believe I'm having to do that.

    Replacement arrived today. Only took a week from US to UK. Mightily impressed.

    Just spinning it now, on the original I got pops on MYM & MFS and a skip on MFS. So far no problems with the replacement.

    Great point. Saw a tutorial on making a notebook cover out of it, but I'm scared i'd cut myself everytime I touch it.If anyone here wants my first Lightning Bolt (Getaway and Pendulum skip, it possibly broke my player's needle), PM me.
  • Received my 'Lightning Bolt' replacement LP today. Will post impressions of same later this evening.

  • Received my replacement just now. Just opened it --- SUPER Excited.

    Fast forward 20 seconds:
    Too bad I cant post pics on here..... I cant believe this album came so creatively in TWO PIECES.

    Yup. Smashed right down the center.... ironically, looking like a lightning bolt struck it with the edges all sharp!
    Wooo hoooo 0 for 2.

    NOW WHAT TEN CLUB???

    Brutal. Just email UMH again and tell them you need another. They're handing them out like candy.

    I got my CD today, at last, still waiting for the vinyl, just sent an email to the 10C to check what's going on, what to do. At least, most of you got your replacement copies already, I haven't received not even the damaged one... will I ever?
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

    This is pretty ridiculous people have had replacements for weeks and still havent got first copy. Live 3 hours away what a joke.

  • My replacement LP of 'Lightning Bolt' is flawless. A nice heavyweight pressing with a great punchy mix, open & spacious, with great stereo separation. A+.

    Fuck this. I finally emailed for a replacement even though I haven't received the original. I resisted for a while because it kind of felt wrong, but the more time that passed without the album the more right it felt. :lol:
