Babel sounds surprisingly good on vinyl. Much better than their first LP, IMO. Good choice.

Hard to ever know what you're getting these days when it comes to new/current artists on vinyl.  With everything being recorded digitally-- It's a crapshoot on whether they turn a good vinyl master.  It was an impulse buy as I was leaving my record store, and I'm glad I did!

I just started a vinyl thread in the Music forum, trying to get to the bottom of what I like about certain pressings-- and what makes a good pressing of a record versus a bad one.  Still learning this stuff, after all these years.

Tool - Lateralus on CD and Vinyl for a friend. The CD didn't cost so much but the LP man.....

How much did you pay for the LP? It's not too bad, IIRC. Gorgeous picture disc but it sounds a big lackluster. I need to frame mine so I'm not tempted to listen to it. lol

Yep that's what happens when you live down under, we have to pay almost a premium for anything sourced outside of our country. Thank god it wasn't my money that I used for the LP. There was a used one for around $50 but figured just go for all brand new. Speaking of which the CD came. Good schitt.

Porcupine Tree is also apparently up in the air at this point.  Members are focusing on other projects on a long-term basis.

Ordered Dar de Duh by Dordeduh today.   Just found out they finally put out a CD a couple months ago.

Yup. Great album, too.
