A bit of context:While I’m not at the hundred thousand dollar mark of pro-audio and audiophile gear. I do have a pretty “high-end” audio setup (or at least what most would considered high-end) that comes in just under the $3000 price point. I do spin records that I feel like would blow my mind, but a lot of my collection is sealed. I crack records like expensive wine or buy a pair, and keep one for collecting while one gets spun. I take vinyl collecting, hi-fi music, and this hobby to heart, as it’s one of the things I literally look forward to every month.My collection, which exceeds 1000 records, has been carefully curated, with most records acquired new. My primary sources for vinyl purchases include Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Discogs, with occasional acquisitions from eBay and independent record stores across the US to secure exclusive releases and desired variants.I am meticulous about the condition of the records I receive, prioritizing their display and quality. Records that arrive with bends, tears, or rips are promptly returned and do not remain in my collection. I strive for pristine appearance, playback, and sound quality. Though there are some records that fall through the crack and are just glorified .MP3s thrown on wax.In evaluating records, I aim to provide fair, unbiased, and neutral ratings, considering factors such as pressing quality, performance, production details, and overall packaging.My current setup features a Pro-Ject T2W turntable, which I use with various styluses. While I typically use the Sumiko Moonstone and Rainer. For speakers, I use a pair of Monitor Audios, Silver 100s and a Acoustic Audio PSW-12 sub that is down-firing because I have hardwood floors and front firing without carpet is well, not so great. This is all complemented by various pre-amps that sound killer. I use a Fosi Audio V3 as the amplifier currently to power the Silver 100s. This setup allows for music to come through as close as the artist and mixing/mastering engineer intended. Sometimes that’s good, sometimes…well not so much.Every record in my collection is meticulously cleaned before playing. I use a hydroponic ultrasonic cleaner and maintain them with regular vinyl cleaning tools and brushes. Each record is then stored in anti-static rice paper sleeves and high-quality plastic protectors to ensure their pristine condition is preserved.Sound:The pressing quality of this album is awesome. It’s clean, it’s dynamic, it sounds so huge and fat everywhere. The thing that shines the most on this, is the acoustic guitars and vocals. They’re literally perfect. Like Noah is performing for you directly with just his acoustic. The bass on this thing is insane. In fact the low end rumble on some songs like Stick Season has 40hz chest rumble that will shake your entire house if you have a sub capable of going there. It’s wild. The mix is absolutely killer and it blew my mind a second into spinning it. On a high-end setup, the audio quality is almost too perfect. I can’t speak for a suitcase table type player like a Crosley, though I imagine if this sounds perfect on my setup, it’d at least sound vocally solid on a low end starter setup. Bass will likely be a little weird cause this record has such a low end behind every track that contains huge kicks that hit every second or so. Low End + Low End Table = Meh. I always include a recording with my reviews and you can hear it even through an iphone, just how great it sounds.Packaging:This packaging is your standard major label release packaging. Nothing special. They give you a crap quality inner sleeve that’s shedding so paper debris is everywhere.Looks/Color Variant:So there are a few different variants of this record, it’s also still getting new presses. This is the standard black. So it’s pretty standard. The brown variant that was the popular one looks nice, but I got this one cause $20. I bought this record for the album art, imagine if they did a German Shepard color variant.Issues:None. It’s an amazing pressing, with great looks, packaging, sound quality, and aesthetic. This entire album feels well worth the price I paid. Which was $20 on sale, it’s more than solid with zero issues even at the current price-tag. While I did clean it hydroponically like I do all my records, this pressing had a decent amount of dust or debris from the factory. Which is a common trend with most things you get pressed. No warping, no skipping, pops, clicks, gouges or scratches. Another reason this clears and then some. No issues once again.Overall:The pressing itself and entire package deal is a 7/10 for the standard black pressing. Which is solid. I think there was a fair bit of dust and debris from the internal sleeve, but due tot he price I wasn’t too pressed, threw it in the cleaner and were good to go. Everyone else will need to clean this before giving it a spin if yours arrived like mine.Cost:This was $20 on sale. This is absolutely a steal. At one point these were $50 +during covid, and people couldn’t keep them on the shelf. Since Noah has come down in popularity since the Olivia Rodrigo collab, things have gotten a bit cheaper and the demand for this record I guess isn’t that popular anymore. I’m sure it’s still selling for the $30 or $40 most places are askingMini Album Review:It’s a really good album. I think Noah Kahan fans are going to appreciate it just as they do Busyhead, the most of his collective works are similar sounding but the push here with Stick Season was mega good production and crisp mixing that made this album pop off. When I first heard the hype around Noah I’ll admit I wasn’t a fan, but he grew on me. I think folk-pop is an interesting genre. I’m not the biggest fan. I think Noah is in the niche of artists like Lorde, Hozier, The Lumineers, or maybe even Bon Iver. The fan bases for these artists are die hard and they love everything but to me it’s just an album with a few good singles on it and is cool to spin every now and again. Where the good tracks are really good and catchy but I don’t listen to this a lot due tot he fact I’m just not a big fan of the genre. It’s a sad almost melancholy album with lots of hope. It’s sort of what you would expect folk pop to be catchy life rolls on music. Solid 6.5/10 from me. As someone who’s favorite artists are Pierce The Veil, (older) Fletcher, and Rivals.

MarkGreat Artist and Product (case arrived in useless condition)Love this CD! Noah Kahn is an incredible song writer and performs them perfectly. If you like folk music and modern music, then you will enjoy this. The case arrived in poor condition, it was bought new but no wrapping around the case and the case was in many small pieces. The shipping package was fine. I rate the item a 5 and the delivery gets a 5. However, the jewel case is damaged and impossible to use with broken and sharp edges, leaving no way to protect the CD from scratches. I rate that a 0. We should be allowed to rate a product separately from packaging and shipping issues.
