Amazing
It got here three days earlier or I think 4 not sure but it sounds amazing. Better then spending 100+ for an og version imo
unofficial import on yellow vinyl - Ocean has managed to preserve the musical personality that marked him out as special on 2012’s immersive, psychedelic R&B game-changer, Channel Orange. There is still the powerful sense of a veiled introvert, and of the unlikely intimacy he achieves within this pose. You find yourself caring anew about the “I” of these songs, who is reflected in snatches of impressionistic poetry, in sunlight, summer smoke and boxer shorts. Solo is the sweet, homoerotically charged account of the space left behind by a toking buddy who is gone (“Now your baby momma ain’t so vicious, all she wants is her picket fence”)​. Seigfried captures a feeling of cosmic detachment: “I can’t relate to my peers/ I’d rather live outside/ I’d rather chip my pride than lose my mind out here.” Blonde is a collection of quiet moments from the man who’s worked hard to make himself the most talked about thing on the internet. In his songs, Ocean is not in control. In fact, he is attractively lost.

record was great overall, love the bootleg. but on both discs on both sides there is this weird black sludge stain that isnt too dark, but dark enough to notice. besides that shipping and handling was great

it's just as it shows in the picture. no damage to the casing and lps and it got here super fast. blond is one of my fav albums and im happy to have it on vinyl. i definitely recommend if your thinking on getting these.
Great quality bootleg, especially when you don’t want to pay for an overpriced official copy
worth the price given the market only downside is the sleeve is a little too tight to easily store both LPs.
Great alternative if you don't want to pay ~$3000 for the original print. Sounds good, my order had a little warping on the second record, causing for some popping and trouble tracking on the first track of side D. Other than this issue the records sound great and look great.
My vinyl arrived super quickly and I was super satisfied with the quality of the record itself. The packaging is a little on the flimsy end but overall good quality.

I absolutely love this album and I have been conflicted about buying this pressing being that it is ‘unofficial’. I am unable to shell out the 1k+ for the Black Friday release, so this is the next best thing. The album came in less than a week, it sounds AMAZING, and I am really glad I made the jump. If you are questioning the ‘quality’ of this pressing, you are not alone, but I have been very impressed. No skipping or popping. All around great quality. 10/10 would recommend buying this!
Got here 3 days earlier than shipping date, and the vinyl itself is a beautiful color. I couldn’t find this bad boy anywhere in stores.
