Heatmiser - Mic City Sons flac mp3 download

This is a surprisingly good pressing. I've had no prior experience with Plain, however their reputation is terrible across discogs, so I've always been wary of their releases. I found this at a cheap price, so I figured it was worth a try. I came to it with low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. The pressing is clean, with only a few stray crackles here and there, nothing major. The mastering is solid as well; there's no distortion and while I haven't had a chance to side by side it with the CD version, I can safely say it sounds just as good, possibly better. While I don't have an original to compare this 2011 reissue to, I would say if you can find it for a good price - go for it! The original is very pricey at this point, so I would say that this is a really solid alternative.

Is this pressing any good? . . . . .

Thanks jonboulay - how is the pressing itself? Much surface noise? Given the price on an original, I might be able to live with the digital sourcing if the pressing quality is up to scratch.

I've never heard an original. My pressing is OK, but it's Plain so definitely cd sourced, not the worst Plain reissue I've heard, but they have a terrible track record. I just a/b-ed low flying jets with my original cd, and they sounded almost identical. However I saw this because I came here to look at the recent sales history for the original pressing, for what that's worth.

Same question. I can’t find a decent review anywhere and it’s a pain.
