Received mine and it's very flat. Spins fine. After a good cleaning it eliminated some of the initial noise but there is noise here and there. Lots of tracks on a single LP so the volume is a bit muted but the overall sound is very clear and punchy w/ nice mid range for the heavier guitar tones on this record. Love the slightly off white tone of the wax. It's a nice meandering away from the normal bright white you see.
Just found my copy at a local shop. No warp to it. Pressing overall seem lackluster. Quiet mix and nothing exceptional stands out.

Like others here, my copy is a bit warped. I went through three and took the best one. Thankfully my anti-skate works well. But watching this thing turn on my platter is like watching my needle surf the wax. Also, both stickers are not even close to being centered. In addition, the center hold is so tight it was almost impossible to get it on the spindle. I ended up gently enlarging the center hole so I didn't have to remove the entire platter to get the record off. However, the vinyl itself does sound pretty darn good (actually really, really good) for a 90s punk-pop record. So it's a toss-up whether I will end up keeping this. It is one of my favorite albums from the era, but the QC on these are for shit. As a result, no matter how good it sounds, I cannot rate it higher than a 3 out of 5.
My copy is flat, and has an average amount of background noise. The noise is quite noticeable between tracks, but not during the songs, other than some of the quieter intros. The album is quite loud, both performance-wise and mastering, so that masks the background noise for the most part. It looks cool. I'm happy to have this on vinyl. No reason to avoid this pressing, but I will give a dissenting opinion that mine is not dead silent or perfect.
Got mine at my local record store, it's in perfect condition. Pressing sounds clean and perfect!

Excellent press! Powerful! Great clear sound! Everything goes perfectly and it has even the bonus tracks!!! Recommended!!!
Mine arrived perfectly flat and is dead silent, spine is a bit thin so won't be easy to find in the shelves but they got it right where it counts when it comes to the sound quality.
Pretty bad pressing. Warped straight out of the shrink and quite a few skips and pops throughout even after a run through the Spin Clean. Sounds pretty good when it's not messed up though.
Does anyone else have issues with Side A? It looks like the press was not centered.... Sounds awful but Side B sounds good?
Sounds pretty decent, but the stereo is reversed from what's on Spotify
