The earliest pressings are from 1985, in Germany, Canada. One of them is Noise N 0025, released October 1985.
How do I tell if my copy of Endless Pain is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use N 0025, BRC 1951) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, N 0025-A mastered by SNB and N 0025-B mastered by SNB. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
