    Is the European pressing exactly the same quality?
    Don’t know yet.

    So far only "In the midst of the 6th" and "Is This You?"

    Will be a pain in the ass, finding the other. Will have to buy an opened version
    I saw somewhere that there's a pressing with "This one took a while" etched on it. 
    That's in the dead wax, so it should be the same for all (although I can't say for sure US vs. Euro pressings).
    Wait, so where are the sayings etched if not on the deadwax?

    What kind of shoes is Eddie wearing in the band photo? Looks like the Jumpman logo near ankle.

    No. 

    You have to give the sleeve a bit of a bow bend to get it in. It’s durable. It will work.

    Took me 30 minutes but I got it in. I feel like I'm going to break the record or rip the cardboard next time

    You won’t. Those sleeves are durable

    Guys. Slightly press down from the top and up from them bottom in the outer sleeve to make it open like a moth slightly. get the bottom corner of the record sleeve and slip it in. Then shimmy the record from top to bottom, top to bottom, back and forth while applying that bit of pressure from the top and bottom of the outer sleeve. 


    That’s heavy cardboard, it won’t break

    And the record? Took me a bit to remove as well. Did you have the same problem? I usually have problems with other vinyl but this took more force

    Can’t wait until my local shop opens again, I have a feeling this album will truly showcase the difference between a vinyl master and digital master...

    Huh? This is digitally mastered vinyl and the vinyl isn’t mastered separately. Cut =\= mastered. This is mastered one time for all formats by Bob Ludwig. Good that QRP did a great job with the pressing but any differences noted between the vinyl and high res downloads are placebo effect or coloration of the source material by playback. Had this been separately mastered by Bellman, I’d be all over it. The Ludwig mastering isn’t bad and certainly can’t be considered a Loudness Wars victim, but clearly they asked him to crank it a little. He mastered Fear Inoculum with more dynamics intact.

    I guess I forgot to mention I purchased the Mastered for ITunes version....

    The outer jacket IS too tight.
    I swapped my sleeves out for SleeveCity's Ultimate inner sleeves.
    They slide right in.
    Also, the album doesn't fit into the box set. We need a new box.
