I just got the LP last night. Has some scratches on the LP... DOH! There's some interesting etches on the dead wax. I'll post more information and record the album into my computer once I find the time.

The LP was only released on test pressing, and the final pressing was never released. I am unsure why as i have a copy and it is a great LP. The album features Nick Barker on drums. They did release a 7'' on cacophonous records too. By the way, it wasnt a headache label release, but on a british label called Vinyl Solution, same label the first Bolt Thrower, Cancer and Cerebral Fix LPs were released on.

Perhaps Vinyl Solution wasn't able financially to release the LP? Didn't that label fold in the early 90's?
Btw. wasn't Headache a Bootleg label only? All records that I have of them are Live LP's and I doubt that the bands gave their ok for that since at that time those bands had a contract with bigger labels and I can't imagine they were ok with that terrible sound on these live records.

Yeah. The Vinyl Solution shop in London became Intoxica, & that closed down last year.

Yeah, the Luxembourg label. Not heard of a Headache boot of this album before.
