Had similar issue with Neil Young Harvest pressing bought brand new from Amoeba in Hollywood CA. Took it back but they wanted to only allow me another copy of the same. After negotiation I was able to get a credit instead and found a clean older used version.
As already stated by many, I clean (Pro-Ject Record Cleaner) all new vinyl just in case, but some new may just be defective. You could see a pattern and color difference in the part of new vinyl I returned.
I also, clean my stylus regularly as even with clean or new records some micro debris can build up. I used a Pro-Ject acrylic platter cover and have no issues with static.
