However, this LP reissue sounds amazing, punchy bass with great dynamic and noticable details on highs.

I haven't heard the US OG, but I have this EU OG and it just sounds (1) absolutely incredible and (2) better than every other pressing I've ever owned and heard, including the ORG/BG (which I think is overrated, possibly due to Mike Esposito's excellent shootout - the reason I ever bought it in the first place). I've also owned the B2B and the 20th and 30th anniversary pressings, and a few others. They're not in the same solar system as this pressing imo.

Maybe Red Hot Chili Peppers would have gained the same iconic status as Nirvana if Flea had killed himself after the release of Blood Sugar Sex Magik.

Nirvana brought him in cos he’d worked with former Sub Pop labelmates Tad, and the mighty churning hardcore of Minneapolis band Killdozer. Point two: Wallace was brought in cos he’d worked with Slayer.

This pressing is capable of inducing pure bliss;and after Cobain had screamed out his denial towards the end of Teen Spirit,I needed a drink.By the way,everything that has been said here is true-whether you focus on Novoselic's bass,Grohl's drumming or Cobain's vocals and guitar:this is it,the gold standard,the holy grail.
