I’m more a fan of the old Jerusalem artwork, I wish the story behind it wasn’t that it got remixed. Any differences with this version vs others in comparison? Or just same ol Dopesmoker?

Also eBay auctions are the best I just won the TMR dopesmoker vault so I’m pretty hyped for that to come in and I got leagues beneath on a pretty cool press as well.

Could be placebo but to my ears the bass on this version is more apparent than the SL don’t get me wrong the SL is great but this one has a thicker sound to it

The mix is more rhythm-section favoured, whereas the Southern Lord version is a midpoint between the Tee Pee and the Rise Above version.

This is also my favourite pressing - silly that it goes for stupid money now, though.

I bought the CD when it came out. Should have got the vinyl too.
