Negativland is Negativland's first album, released in 1980.[6][7] Each copy of the album has a different cover.[7] The initial pressing was 500 copies.[8][9] Unlike all other Negativland albums, the album has no titles for the songs, just numbers. It is the rarest Negativland album, next to the misprinted Dispepsi albums and the U2 E.P.
