Perfect quality.
Really happy to find this. The official website has been out of stock for awhile. Product arrived on time, cellophane wrapped in an appropriate package to protect it from damage.You might expect 2nd hand sellers to charge way more than the official site, but it wasn't, especially considering the shipping from overseas.Totally reasonable price. Would buy from them again.

Fantastic album. Great press.
The vinyl doesn't seem to have any issues with its pressing and is mastered very well for the format!

Superb Attention to Detail & Pressing
This is one of the best sounding vinyls I have, the records themselves are heavy & well made, zero errors. The packaging this album arrives in has exceptional artwork in the trifold. It helps that this entire album makes you feel like you're speeding down a dark road in pursuit of a supervillain. What more could you want?

Perfect
Came in as quick as I ordered it, had no issues whatsoever. The vinyl itself is amazing and in good condition, but mostly I love CB.

Fantastically dark yet energetic
I'd be lying if I said I had heard of Carpenter Brut prior to the trailers for Samurai Jack season 5. After listening to the entire album on YouTube, I had to buy this.Strongest tracks:- Escape from Midwich Valley (I'd run a D&D session inspired by this one)- Hang 'em All- Division RuineWeakest tracks:- Wake up the PresidentOverall this is an amazing album, and is probably the best example of retrowave that I've ever heard. Put on your headphones, turn up the volume, and crank out some code.

Can't believe I found this LP, usually unavailable outside of Europe. Pretty good pressing, sounds great so far.

Fantastic box set, great artwork, brilliant music. Fair price too.
I've been listening to Carpenter Brut since the first EP on Bandcamp. Really great, hard hitting, intensely driving synths. Deserves to be much more well known. The 3 EPs are like three kicks to the face, in a good way. Mastered pretty damn loud though! Right at the end of EP3 I had my speakers on low while I was concentrating and I could hear the high synths fizzing from across the room just from the turntable needle!!! Great box set, although getting the middle record out is a little fiddly. Great artwork too, very eyecatching.

Amazing album sounds better on vinyl
Dug out an old record player and wanted some music to see if what people say about vinyl is right and oh boy they are, it sounds so much better than mp3s or youtube. A bonus is that you get a download code for the uncompressed songs so you can listen to the higher quilty versons without the record if you want.Also for those intested the art for it is amazing and honestly worth the price just for that

Definitive Dark Synthwave Album
This is a truly top notch album from Carpenter Brut. Brings you lots of 80s horror John Carpenter vibes and chunky synths. My favourites are Le Perv and Turbo Killer and Escape from Midwich Valley. I waited a while for the price to come down to something reasonable and managed to snag it for $53CAD. All three LPs are pressed on fairly heavy vinyl, the sleeve has lots of interesting artwork, even inside of the sleeves. No extras or download codes inside.
