Editing Ludichrist (section)

=== CBGBs Records ===
The group performed mainly in NYC where there were existing venues and a hardcore scene, but the group first substantial following grew out of a series of shows at Club Anthrax in Connecticut, enabling the group to larger crowds around the east coast region. After a series of energized performances at his venue, CBGBs owner Hilly Kristal asked the group to release a live recording of their show on CBGBs record label which he was reviving through a series of cassette-only releases. Instead of releasing the live performance made on the venues mixing console earlier that day the group waited until the venue was closed then performed a more precise version of its set to only the engineer, Steve. This live recording was expertly combined with crowd sounds from the earlier matinee and released as "CBGBs Live "Off the Board" Ludichrist".

Founding member, Mark Durnex (aka Mark Kanabrocki) who had written most of the first album's songs appears only on the two demos and the CBGBs cassette – leaving the group before ''Immaculate Deception'' was recorded. Long Island native and ludichrist fan Joe Butcher joined the group as second guitarist, bringing his active musical sensibilities with him. Joe wrote the music for the album track "Thinking of You" – lyrics by Tommy Christ.

Per an interview with Cummings that was posted on Facebook in November 2024 by Blasted by Britton, a reissue of the CBGBs cassette is being discussed with [[Megaforce Records]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=Dicks |first1=Britton |title=Glen Cummings Interview |url=https://www.facebook.com/groups/blastedbybritton/permalink/596068032994446/?rdid=VeBmAhjWgY6h6Dp8# |website=Facebook |access-date=December 9, 2024}}</ref>
