(1991)"CD Type Thing" is the first album by Huntington Beach pop punk band
Big Drill Car , released in 1989. Many consider this album both to be a classic of the late 80shardcore punk scene and the peak of Big Drill Car's career.The title of the album changed with the format it was presented on: the
compact disc version was entitled "CD Type Thing", the vinyl format was called "Album Type Thing", and theaudio cassette version was called "Tape Type Thing". The gimmick is similar to that ofPublic Image Ltd. 's 1986 album, "Album".Like many Big Drill Car albums, "CD Type Thing" is currently out of print.
