Radu Cosmin N. - 12/Jan/2025 Got this yesterday from the physical shop and my god is it good! The records both look superb, there'a the inner booklet including the text and lyrics as well as a leaflet advertising the upcoming 2025 live show. What I hate (generally for current day releases) is the insertiom of records in paper or cartboard sleeves and not in polylined ones. If you are like me you probably have your own, but obviously most outer slewves are not built to hold those as well. Anyway, great pressing and beautiful release.
