Pressed on 180-gram audiophile-grade vinyl for cleaner fidelity and extended lifetime playback durability. The mastering process utilizes the Perfect Groove^TM mastering software. This software auditions the studio master prior to cutting the acetate to generate a Forecasted Virtual Rendering of the record as well as a report detailing an analysis of potential groove deformations impacting playback quality. This enables the engineer to take preemptive, corrective measures so that the final pressing mirrors the intended audio equalization of the original studio performance.

This 2LP set is an authenticated and numbered limited edition Mixprint ^TM release. Every album jacket features unique "1 of 1" cover art, making each design truly distinct and highly collectible - a first in the vinyl record industry. These covers are created through a harmonious blend of hand-crafted artistry, proprietary technology (without the use of A.I.) and advanced printing techniques. Released for Record Store Day 2025.
