(GI) is the only studio album by the American punk rock band Germs. Often cited as one of the first hardcore punk albums, it was released in the United States in October 1979 through Slash Records with the catalog number SR 103. The album was later released in Italy in 1982 by EXPANDEDMUSIC with the catalog EX 11. The album's title is an acronym for "Germs Incognito", an alternate name the band used to obtain bookings when their early reputation kept them out of Los Angeles-area clubs.
