Notes
Limited to 150 copies in a gatefold sleeve.
Re-mixed by Bill Leeb and Rhys Fulber at Gotajm Studios in 1993, except "Eternal" and "Persecution".
Original recordings of these songs were done in 1986 using nothing more than a four track recording system. This would be quite primitive for today's standards and sound quality will not be so effective, however the ideas are all there letting us enjoy some of the first songs created by Front Line Assembly.
Was also release as an 8LP fanpack including the following 4 releases plus an exclusive silkscreened slipmat and a set of four postcards. Limited to 100 copies:
The Initial Command 2LP https://discogs.versitio.com/de/release/edit/23811428
Corroded Disorder 2LP https://discogs.versitio.com/de/release/23811602-Front-Line-Assembly-Corroded-Disorder

The sound quality is excellent, considering they used a primitive recording system (their own words). That's what's great about this album: the primitive sounds, samples, beats and keyboards/synths. Very, very cold electro-industrial/EBM with some ambient to provide a welcome breather. The artwork adds to the atmosphere and is in the same style as the reissues of Total Terror II, The Initial Command and Corroded Disorder. The colour of the vinyl is a light brown, quite subtle. The vinyl is quiet. A very enjoyable listen.
This is still available at a normal price (30 euro) at the webshop of the label, from which I ordered it as well.
