This is the 1992 original US pressing of the self-titled debut from 1.6 Band. Issued as Gern Blandsten #5, this LP was recorded at Don Fury’s legendary New York City studio, capturing the frantic, jazzy, yet aggressive energy that defined the era's technical hardcore. The mastering was handled at Frankford/Wayne by RCE (Rick Essig), ensuring a punchy, wide-range analog sound that surpasses later digital reissues.
