I've had bad luck with audio on splatter vinyl lately.

Might just be in my head though.

You probably have a crappy turntable or don't know how to properly set the settings on your stereo.

It is a crappier 150- 200 dollar turntable but I was just listening to a strokes album before and it sounded crisp and clear

It in all honesty was probably in my head, but I felt like I was hearing some pops on a few of the splatters =P

I'm no expert on the record pressing process, but if there's issues with a record it seems unlikely that the colour or the pattern on the record is the cause.

Also, you should buy an anti-static record brush if you don't already have one.

Colored vinyl, and especially picture discs, are notable for having worse quality and durability than plain black. They're more of a gimmick release meant for display, form over function.

Of course, this specific record was never going to sound good because the label says it's Dance Gavin Dance

I've got lots of colour vinyl and I've honestly never noticed a difference in quality compared to black ones.

Picture discs yes, but colored vinyl is made in exactly the same way as black vinyl so there should be no difference

the material records are made from is clear by default; all coloring, including black, is added

They're not.

But buy a record brush if you care about your records.
