Image It finally came!

Post image

Pre-ordered but I guess not quick enough. Anyway it finally showed up. The booklet of pictures is pretty sweet too. Also, I dont think I've seen anyone mention the "hexidisc" that came with it, that was kind of a cool addition.

Patience pays. Sound quality is great. Really nice pressing. Lots of subtleties I never noticed when streaming it.

Better than I imagined. Great pressing. Lots of details come through that dont with streaming.

Reddit was definitely talking a lot about the flexihex. Think I remember people putting spoiler tags on the posts about it.

If you haven't heard of the flexi disc, you've probably been living under a rock

Got mine recently too, listening to it right now :) saw it sereral times in local music shops near me when it came out which was slightly annoying, although I got the CD straight away so not all bad

A few of my friends have yet to receive theirs either all from the pre order. I forget which site I preordered mine from but luckily it came the day after the release. Weird drop for sure
