Sleigh Bells – Treats

It's been 5 years, Mom + Pop, let's get a repress...

This needs a repress, is such a good and LOUD album, love it

Maybe I'm in the minority here? I actually have always liked the design of the cover art and packaging of this release. It's what originally drew me to the album way back when I originally came across it while venturing through my local mall and checking out Hot Topic's vinyl section (as one did back in 2010, do they still have a vinyl section?).

Sadly, after sitting for a number of years, my needle did the electric slide across the length of the record's grooves. I know, you're probably thinking the needle was bad, right? Well, I tested it on another record (or two) and no issue. So...

I did read somewhere (perhaps on this very website?) that this was an issue with older picture discs. Where the grooves would wear out over time. This record only sitting for 7 or 8 years seems a little extreme though!

Not seeing any other comments mentioning this so maybe I'll take a chance on another 2010 copy. I DO like that "ugly on purpose" cover and jacket design :)

Anyone else experience this with said release? Or other picture discs? I feel like I experienced this with another release but can't recall the exact disc.

How is this picture disc DMM and the standard vinyl isn't...

This is actually decent sounding for a picture disc. If you out here looking for audiophile quality in a picture disk, you will always be disappointed. Packaging is a little sketch but just put it in an archival sleeve and stick the whole thing in an orphan sleeve or album cover you probably got sent from a discog seller.

Got a used copy of this. A tiny bit scratched up and dirty, but still sounds amazing. Good, punchy sound throughout.

I tried two copies of this picture disc - both skip on the last track of side A.

My runouts are a little different:
91491E1/B PIRATES PRESS - MP0161 A
91491E2/C PIRATES PRESS - MP0161 B

if I'm being completely honest I think the artwork is intentionally bad.

I don't quite understand why they just didn't factory seal these. It comes in a protective vinyl sleeve with the ORIGINAL barcode sticker. The record jacket itself uses the new barcode. Unless you collect hype stickers, this can be tossed.
