Terra Nova (EP)

Terra Nova is the debut extended play by American noise rock band The Austerity Program, released in 2003 through Hydra Head Records. The disc received mixed reception, some critics praised its experimental tendencies, while others critiqued repetition. The EP performed poorly commercial-wise, and it is considered as one of the least-selling records Hydra Head has ever released.
