I own both pressings.
After multiple listens, I have to say that the new pressing sounds much better than the first. Strange. And cool.

I received mine yesterday as well! Problem is, for some reason I shipped it to my parents in NY. At least it will now be on its way to me, and that I know it really exists!!!!

Got mine today as well. Flipped through and packaging is absolutely beautiful! Unfortunatley I don't have a turntable at my desk, so I have to wait 'til I get home to spin it.

not complaining, but the reissue seems kinda cheapo when compared to the 1st - vinyl feels and sounds better, heavier weight and the jacket is a lot thicker and heavier - on the reissue everything is sort of flimsy. might be worth it to buy originals while the prices are good!
Got mine today from Sound Stage Direct- packaging is totally mangled - so is the sleeve and booklet inside. I only hope the vinyl is okay when I try to play it later :S
On the plus side, the company responded VERY quickly to my complaint even though it was not their fault but the postal service's and are going to find a way to fix me up

flimsy or not, i'm just glad that i finally own it so i can PLAY IT. and for the record, it sounds amazing to my ears.
I have found a new love for this record! It's like I am hearing it for the first time again but better. Songs that didn't appeal to me are jumping out. vinyl sounds better! I am happy with the purchase but not really with Aural Exploits. I don't even think we got a order #. Anything with the word "Exploit" should cause weariness. With the emails that they might not have enough!? Poor communication.I just don't think I will use them again.
I still havent received mine in Toronto from Aural Exploits.

It's the LP version that's a bit extended. Man that one is HAUNTING.

When did you order? Got my copy from Aural Exploits last Wednesday here in Halifax.
I'm happy I held out for the vinyl instead of the CD. SO SEXY!
