Notes
This Volcano release uses a sleeve that contains the Zoo logo and old cat# 72445-11027-1 while the label has the Volcano logo and the updated cat#61422-31027-1.
Differences from this -
:: The spine does not contain the name of the EP or the band.
:: The entire sleeve has a little more reddish tint.
:: The copyright information on the bottom rear is a less sharp font and slightly blueish colour.
:: The Parental Advisory on the cover is part of the sleeve, not a sticker.
Differences from this -
:: The Gaping Lotus Experience is the very last track on the album. No double cut, this is a separate track on side B.
There is no mention of track B4 anywhere on this release.

Edited one year agoFirst impression is it is a bit on the quiet side volume wise and when you do give it some juice is just seems a little flat like someone mentioned earlier. The live recordings however do sound pretty decent as well as the last two songs on the B side so that's a plus. I know how good a Tool pressing can sound and this just isn't it but the B side is pretty solid. It is very quiet in between songs and the record is super flat. Overall I'm pleased with it and would recommend for us Tool fans. Happy 60th MJK!!! -
my copy is quite noiseless and flat. this is a pressing that increased the level of the joy i get from listening this album. it has surprises and emphasizes the right tones for me.

Solid album/pressing. Agree with others that this is a good one to get given Tool's record with vinyl. -
Just received my $6.99 copy from Amazon today. Verified decent copy. Not my favorite Tool release, but happy to have it added to my collection.

Bought this from EMP on november 2021, kinda hard to identify between all the different copies and also unnoficial releases available but the matrix does match the info in this release. The first copy I got had a label poorly glued on side B so it had issues while playing side A due to the disc wobbling, but got a replacement and luckily it was spotless. The package is nothing special but the sound is good so if you like this EP then do get this version, knowing TOOL and their history with vinyls I doubt there will ever be an upgraded reissue, so it is this or nothing. -

I purchased a copy from Amazon last week that has the same matrix info listed here, but the Side A is not printed off centre as per the photos. If the off centre printing a key identifying feature of this release? -
Edited 4 years agoI believe this is the version Amazon is selling as of January 2020. Their information lists this as being "first available" July 26, 2006. -
Is this an original re-release or a bootleg?, mine is Variant 2, runout 61422 310271-A Re-1 NRP ⓤ and 61422 310271-B² Re-1 NRP ⓤ.
