    Every single record in my set was warped. Pressed by GZ Media alright.

      I can't stand that bloody Daryl Eastley, either. "The Light Syndrome is The Fall's last truly great album"--my fucking arse, ya cloth-eared so-called "music critic".
      They say The Fall are like Marmite--turns out Fall *fans* are, too! What a fucking titsack that man is.

        Any compression been used on the remastering? Original CD is dynamically good. cheers

          I love this Fall album, because it is so very "Punk" in a way, Mark E. Smith didn't give sh't about sound quality or what the fans might say. This is one of my fav. The Records itself is well done, no side noises or some other artifacts. All Fall-Fans should have a try on this one.

            The outer sleeve on mine is significantly bigger than the three discs. The inner sleeves all got dinged during shipping, sliding around inside the carefully packed sealed outer. I still need to put the cd on to compare.
