Nitzer Ebb's first recording 'Basic Pain Procedure' is celebrating its 30th anniversary and Pylon Records will be reissued it on CD worldwide in June 11.
The original version of the recording was a cassette-only release and was designed mostly for label interest, and fans were able to purchase it directly at the band shows. Nitzer Ebb went on to record a whole new batch of songs for their debut album 'That Total Age', and with the exception of "The Home," which was reworked/retitled for Belief, the songs from Basic Pain Procedure were never reused or re-recorded.
Last year the record received the vinyl treatment and now will have its CD format, which contains all tracks of the BPP such as Faded Smiles, Tradition and Crane as well as the entire live Concert from CIHE, Chelmsford, December 9, 1983.
Nitzer Ebb have uploaded a few tracks from the live album onto soundcloud, stream them below.
