    My very first SHM CD arrived yesterday!
    I have read about that format. I would be interested to hear your thoughts. :)

    Well I finally had a chance to play this baby. But after closer inspection, I believe this is a fake! There are no SHM-CD markings whatsoever on the disc! See below for reference (from discogs):

    I got all bumbled up after not seeing the markings. Hadn't even played it, just put it back in the package. Reminds me of my many trips to Shanghai where there are street vendors everywhere selling fake CD/DVD/Blu-Rays. :confounded:

    Yeah, there's even bootleg record labels that recreate all the artwork/packaging similarly to how the legit one looks. The only difference is their little logo/name for the record label, instead of the real one.

    Then they sell them for ~75% less than the authentic ones. I hate to say it but I've purchased a few of them just to save money on a few rare releases.

    Sometimes you have to pay close attention to detect cheap Chinese knockoffs. Sometimes....not so much. :p

    I have listened to a few cuts from that group..not bad,but in my opinion,they are going to have to get their hands on a top notch producer to really break into the big time as the style has been done before...
