As part of its ongoing series of definitive reissues, Iodine Recordings proudly presents the 30th anniversary of Quicksand's "Manic Compression" - a landmark of post-hardcore innovation and one of the defining albums of the 1990s. Recorded by Walter Schreifels (Gorilla Biscuits, Youth Of Today), Tom Capone (Beyond, Bold), Sergio Vega (Deftones, Collapse), and Alan Cage (Beyond, Seaweed), "Manic Compression" was produced by Wharton Tiers (Sonic Youth, Helmet) and Don Fury (Sick Of it All, Agnostic Front) - figures whose fingerprints ground the record in both New York's underground grit and its rising alternative ascent. Out of print for years, the 30th anniversary edition has been remastered for vinyl from the 1995 master tapes by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Joyce Manor) at The Atomic Garden.
