Dead Can Dance New LP "into the labrynth"

I am new to vinyl but I had a similar issue with a couple of Radiohead issues from Capitol records. There were others who had experiences similar to mine and a friend experienced in vinyl told me it was most likely (non-fill???). I think this is condition where the vinyl does not fill all of the grooves of the stamper and leaves a "pocket" in the LP groove that causes distortion particularly in louder passages.

Jimbojrjb, your experience sounds very similar to this.

Dead can sing to.

Jimbojrjb, did you ever get a second copy for comparison? And insight would be much appreciated if you happen to check back on this thread.

Sorry for the very late response here........we moved and my new pressing is on its way. I will update shortly

Reading this post made me dig out my old original Dead Can Dance Albums. They are all state of the art in vinyl recording production. They are dead quiet, clearly recorded with tube equipment...that's not to say they are rolled off. The little percussion tings, and things are as real sounding as I've ever heard. There is absolutely no telltale signs of mistracking on any of the records...no matter how loud Lisa 's chanting is recorded. It makes you wonder why the art of recording has plummeted so. Listen to the new Norah Jones album or the Paul Simon album....so disappointing...
