Very good Cd

All time favorite band. The record sound quality is really good! Listening to a record just has a special feel to it. I will be buying more.

Part of grandsons x-mas gift

Little to no surface noise, sound quality and dynamics are good, vinyl is pretty flat. They pressed the tracks on 4 sides with no center tracks, I assume to keep the surface speed up for quality playback - awesome! It would be nice to make this a gatefold and include poly-lined sleeves (paper sleeves with artwork and lyrics printed are included.) It is rare to find a well-priced quality pressing nowadays; I have to send about 50% of them back for replacement, not in this case though - nice work.From this vinyl version, I picked up a few nuances in the guitar and some random backing vocals I had never heard before in the 30+ years I have had with the material! Nice work on the mastering and pressing.The range is great, very clear highs and clean bass. Listening on Pro-Ject Debut Pro turntable / Pro-Ject Phono Box S2 preamp / Klipsch Fives mains / REL HT/1003 MKII subwoofer.

all songs are bangers , perfect condition new cd no cracks

Great album. Had this back when it originally came out…. on cassette. Lost the cassette years ago and now bought it on CD. The CD arrived in one piece. The case, however (shipped inside a white Amazon mailer padded envelope) arrived shattered beyond recognition. Mailer was alright so appears to have shipped in this condition. The modern world is not always the best.Replaced with the case from another album I had laying about…. But still….

Look, I'm not going to lie: AIC is definitely my favorite of the Seattle scene, so I'm biased. Every one of the big 4's debut albums was phenomenal, so I'm not here to compare this album to "10" or "Nevermind" or "Bad Motorfinger." All those albums are SICK, even if I never have liked Nirvana all that much. This has all the elements that came to define Alice In Chains: the harmonies, the riffs, the melodic bass lines, all that. I had forgotten just how much I love "We Die Young," but I never really dove into their catalog beyond "Dirt" and "Jar of Flies," so some of these songs are just jumping up my playlist. I had heard "Bleed the Freak," but songs like "It Ain't Like That" and "Love Hate Love" are right in the pocket for my ears. This album is very much about heavy, straightforward rocking AIC - not a lot of acoustic stuff and more complex compositional stuff that came afterwards. I love it. It rocks like only these guys can.

My review is for for the vinyl release itself. You already know this is essential in any collection! The sound is A+! Great fidelity, nice deep bass and punch! The album art is way I gave 4 stars. It's not bad by any stretch, but it's not crisp like an original. Pehaps the original art was lost or destroyed. Not sure... but the inner sleeves are nice. Glad to have this in my collection on vinyl. 🤘
