The debut album of Master, titled simply Master was recorded twice. First with Jim Martinelli on Guitars and Aaron Nickeas on Drums. This recording was not accepted by the record company Nuclear Blast. Hence it was re-recorded with Schmidt (drums) and Mittelbrun (guitar), which was eventually released. The first recording was later released under the name Speckmann Project in 1992.
