The matrix number of my LP board is carved in the NIRUP (reverse engraving) symbol THIS 1 A // 4 ▽ E UT ♫ 1 on the A side, THI S1 B /// 3 ▽ E UT on the B side It is engraved.This album was fresh and isolated so far that methodology and sound did not exist before, and gave extremely serious scratches to the scene from a different phase from the punk.

Does anybody know what the matrix number for this version?

Interesting experimental sound. Avantgarde ? Sure. ''Punk'' ? No relation.

This Heat's first album combines tape loops, musique concret interludes, punishing drumming, hypnotic grooves, studio tricks and some incredibly surreal songwriting.24 Track Loop and Horizontal Hold have a studio-as-instrument vibe... lock-groove rock....there's much in common with dub reggae. The Fall of Saigon and Twilight Furniture are strange but melodic almost-pop songs. Water, Rainforest and Diet of Worms are more freeform abstract pieces.Really this album is a high water mark of UK post-punk (although some tracks were actually recorded pre-punk in Feb. 1976).

This Heat were a unique band mixing punk attitude with progressive tendencies, English whimsy with German experimentalism. This album, compiled from studio sessions and live cassettes, captures their early incandescence. 24 track loop develops the tape loop technique, Horizontal Hold is reminiscent of Robert Wyatt and Fall of Saigon is a mournful ode to the ambassadors cat, with Bullen's guitar echoing the work of Michael Karoli. In fact the influence of Can and Faust can be felt throughout,tere certainly weren't many UK bands this far out. Not for the faint hearted, This Heat were a howl of rage against society, more catharsis than showbiz. A legendary album.
