    Nicely done Robby! Crazy that you hear such a distinct difference between two quality pressings.

    Is the MOFI the one with 320 pressed in the wax? That's supposed to be the best, but out of print.

    The Pallas is plated from the same plates that pressed the ORG 032 blue vinyl from 2009 that everyone agrees is top notch. So with this new Pallas pressing you get the great sound of the ORG but don't have to pay $150-200 for the sound.

    To me the MOFI sounds more muffled than the ORG, but still sounds good.. Just not as clean IMO.

    So the consensus is that the German Pallas is the best edition that is available (reasonably)?

    Ebay has them. That's where I got mine. Just have to be sure it says German import or pressing.

    Pallas Nevermind arrived today and it is as good as advertised- will sit nicely next to my Pallas pressed copy of In Utero- why can't PJ do this?

    I kinda want the In Utero now to complete Pallas set even though I already have two copies.

    Don't think you'll find a better sounding pressing than that black RSD pressing of In Utero, cut at 45rpm, just sounds phenomenal..

    I really like it Albini mix is sick.
    Much rawer and more aggressive.
    Great release!
    Back when RSD was awesome.....
