Farmers manual fsck full album


fsck is the second full-length release by Farmers Manual, published in August 1997 on Tray (a sister-label of Ash International). A 2nd edition was reprinted in 1999 on OR (another sister-label of Ash International).

Album title

The album title refers to a command of the Unix operating system, where fsck stands for file system check - a command used by system administrators if there is believed to be a problem with the file system (the term's tongue-in-cheek use among the hacker subculture is referenced in the Jargon File). Nevertheless, some critics took the title as a misspelling.

Reception

Fsck was hailed as an "abstract genre abuse", and compared to acts as Pan Sonic, Merzbow or Photek. The album was included in the "top 50 albums of 1997" by British music magazine The Wire.
