Conforming to Abnormality is Cephalic Carnage's first full-length album. It was first released in 1998 on Italy's Headfucker Records. In 2002, the album was re-released on Hybrid Records. In 2006, Subordinate Records from Italy re-released the album without the band's permission on CD and LP.[2] In 2008, the album was remixed, remastered, and repackaged, and had 20 bonus tracks added.[3] This version was released by Relapse Records on April 29, 2008.[4] The bonus tracks come from the band's split with Anal Blast, plus a new song sung by former bassist Jawsh Mullen.
