Gods Ball's, TAD's punishing, noise-drenched debut album, was recorded with Jack Endino at Reciprocal Recording in Seattle in 1988, and released early the following year. In addition to their usual arsenal of guitars, bass, and drums, the band employed a variety of unusual instruments - an empty gas tank from a car, a hacksaw, a large brass tube from a microwave transmitter, CB radio mics, a cello bow used on cymbals to emulate guitar feedback - to thunderous effect, adding a Neubauten-esque clang to the band's rock riffs. After releasing Gods Ball's, TAD flew to Europe with Nirvana for both bands first European tour. Now lovingly remastered by the band's friend and engineer Jack Endino (Soundgarden, Nirvana, Mudhoney, Screaming Trees) and repackaged in a deluxe tip-on gatefold sleeve with expansive liner notes. Includes digital download code with bonus tracks from TAD's 1988 debut 7", plus the previously unreleased "Tuna Car" from the 7" session.
