Likely to be a more recent repress than the 2017 deluxe edition release of Born To Die, due to updated runouts in sides C and D. Variant 1 has audio artifacts. honestly, its audible, but for the casual listener, it is just fine.

I hate this album. Yet, people seem to like it. So, I listened to it. The pressing is not audiophile, although I guess it's ok for your more casual listening. I can hear low level noise during the quiet parts. Unfortunately, side 1 is 26 minutes long and side 2 is 24 minutes long. That means that the songs have to be recorded at lower-than-normal levels, which, allows for more surface noise to be heard.

This is a good pressing. I bought a copy used and while it was very dirty at first, deep cleaning it helped massively. It was probably dirty out of the factory from those darn paper sleeves, which I immediately replaced with plastic ones after cleaning and you should too.

Her album, also titled "Born To Die" will be released a week later on Monday January 30th.I have the single LP version, but the SQ on this copy is notably superior. It obviously falls short of being a sonic marvel, but the dynamics are more expansive, and the tone richer than the streamed version... At least on my system.
