Fu Manchu were already road-hardened veterans of the Southern California underground when they stepped into Grandmaster Studios, having built their reputation through relentless touring and a string of releases on Mammoth Records. The move to a major gave them a bigger canvas, but Scott Hill, Bob Balch, Brad Davis, and Brant Bjork kept the low-slung riff worship and throttle-pinned grooves that made them essential to anyone paying attention to what was happening in the California desert and garage scenes.
To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the band's 3rd album and major label debut from 27 February, 1996, the band is releasing In Search Of...30th Anniversary Edition. Recorded at Grandmaster Studios in Hollywood, California by the band and Brian Jenkins (KYUSS, SCREAMING TREES), ""In Search Of..."" is considered a classic of the '90s and a pillar for the ""stoner rock"" movement. Highlights include the lead single 'Asphalt Risin', 'Redline' and fan favorite 'Cyclone Launch'. This limited edition 2,000 unit run is pressed on Red Blue Vinyl & Custom Night Sky Vinyl with each LP in a printed sleeve with never before seen images and the gatefold package design includes never before seen photos of the band. The second LP contains the previously released demos for the album that the band recorded themselves in 1995 on a 4-track Tascam. Both LPs feature newly remastered audio for maximum fidelity.
