The first pressing of Control on vinyl was almost universally regarded as lacking in the audio fidelity department. That has all been remedied. The 2012 remaster for vinyl by TW Walsh is a genuine work of art. It is warm and full and truly captures the nuances that make this album great. The album is pressed on 150g but don't let that sway you. What's more important is the care that was put into crafting this - it's a labor of love that is a must buy for any Pedro the Lion / David Bazan fan. Bravo!
This album is David Bazan's masterpiece. Hands down the best recorded material ever released by Pedro the Lion. It perfectly blends allegory with true-to-life stories. You feel connected to Bazan and his characters as the album turns. He leaves hints for repeat listens all over the album. the physical vinyl copy plays great and the inside jacket is a very nice addition. I would recommend this album to all thoughtful music listeners, especially fans of the "emo" genre.
