How many vinyl pressings of House Of God are there?

When was House Of God first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 2000, in Germany. One of them is Massacre Records MAS LP0233.

How do I tell if my copy of House Of God is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MAS LP0233, MAS PD0233) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MAS LP-0233 A Dmm G.P. and MAS LP-0233 B Dmm G.P.. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
