Over 15 years in the making, MBV is My Bloody Valentine's third album. No need for first person "I have a Loveless tattoo" or post-blog-house journalism piece. Just know that this is good! Or even great. And normally I get a little taken back by expensive vinyl pressings, but I feel like you're getting Kevin Shields' blood mixed into the 180g vinyl. The album was recorded, mixed, and mastered completely in analogue, why mess it up with digital compression? But if you're inclined or lazy, there's a high-quality digital download included. Recommended.
