Frontline Assembly

The Initial Command

Limited pressing of 500 copieswith double vinyl record, deluxe gatefold sleeve and new vintage artwork. D-side features a silkscreen of the classic fist logo. "The Initial Command" is the debut landmark album by Canadian EBM-industrialists Front Line Assembly, originally released in 1987 through Belgian label KK Records. Bill Leeb shows us already a unique style, setting a benchmark for all that would follow. Fiercely original, not least for 'it's time', from the glittering synths and harsh metallic percussion of the unarguably cinematic "Casualties" and the abrasive white noise on "Ausgang zum Himmel", to the punchy breaks and dramatic strings of "No Control". This Deluxe re-release includesall original tracks and both bonus tracks taken from a re-release in 1997: "Complexity" and "Core".
