Immerse Your Soul In Love - The Radiohead Thread

So I remember there being some talk that the Euro red Kid A Mnesia pressing was better than the NA one. But they all appear to be Optimal no? Or is cogs wrong? Is there a way to distinguish.aside from the deadwax?

There was a feeling the US ones were United from the label indents and the fact that they were noisy as hell and had rough edges with loose pieces of vinyl in the sleeves. There was a post in this thread somewhere about it. The EU ones don’t seem to have those complaints.

The distortion issue seems to be across all presses though from what I’ve read.

Riiiight, I forgot the labels thing. Yes that's right. But no way to tell from the exterior... I've found a new red copy for retail price but... without at the very least knowing if it's the UK I can't do it...

Yeah it's a tough one, this store is weird. It's in Toronto called Volver. The guy doesn't play grade anything and he lists stuff without any traditional grading beyond "wonderful" or whatever random adjective you want to pick... I've never bought anything from him but he sells a lot of rare stuff. He also doesn't ship and you have to literally go to his loft to buy the stuff. It's very strange. I can honestly deal with the strangeness but the lack of proper grading I find very annoying.

Get this everyone... Night Mather buys his records from a loft in Toronto, and they're wonderful! ;)
