Definitive Audiophile pressings

I've had this in my cart and just went to check out a few minutes ago, but I got the little note that said it had sold out. I hadn't been over here yet today, but I said to myself, "I bet those N&G folk are responsible for this." Sure enough . . .
Hahaha uhhh sawwwwy my bad.
 
Which albums? I have the latest Robert Smith approved remasters of Seventeen Seconds, Pornography and Disintigration. They’re all exceptional, especially Disintegration, it sounds huge!

To be honest, I've only got Standing on a Beach & All mixed up. I had a few tapes and CD's way back, but never managed to get any vinyl, always second guessed which ones to buy.

What year pressings are the ones you have? I'll start of with a few of those.

(I used to love the tape of standing on a beach with all the b-sides on side b, really wish I'd kept it, or they would do a nice vinyl re-issue)

I think they’re all currently still the version that’s in press but here’s the Discogs links for the three I have, I really need to pick up some more…




Out of those Disintegration is my favourite, both as an album and a pressing!

I had a slight panic there, started looking at Disintegration and the recent presses have skyrocketed, I've seen them everywhere for years. Have a think about buying one & it's sold out everywhere.


The new ones are digital, pressed at MPO, probably very similar to yours, I doubt it will sound any better.

Unlikely they'd do anything like that, to include the b-sides; the connect the dots box set supplants it.

I'm dying for wish, paris/show and black wax copies of bloodflowers and wild mood swings.

I'm with Joe, all the recent ones are great. Word is even the picture discs are good. Disintegration is the crown jewel imo.

Connect the dots is only on CD though? Its there a vinyl version?

I'll just add that the Head on the Door reissue sounds great, especially for the price.
 
Disintegration looks like a difficult find, but I'm sure it will get a repress, might go for head in the door while waiting
Kiss me is also hard to find now, to me a hot minute to find one under 50$

Hahaha! It was only €17 in a local store so it’s waiting for me to pick up! I might have added on Kiss Me for €27 because someone told me it was rare…

Edit: No wait Kiss Me is actually sold out, wouldn’t go through the checkout ☹️

I'm sure all these titles will be repressed
