1. Allgemeine Verunsicherung is the first album from the Austrian band Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung. It is actually self-titled, since cardinal numbers followed by a full stop become ordinal numbers: "1." in German translates as "first" as opposed to the number one.

The album is mainly in German, although some of the titles are in English. As the band had changed its members, the material on this album differs considerably from the music the band later went on to produce.

The album was released only in Austria in 1978 under catalogue number EMI Columbia 12C 054-33230. Because only 1800 records were released, original copies are difficult to find and highly sought after by collectors. The album was reissued on CD in 2015 and on vinyl in 2016.

The song entitled "Pustel Gunkel" makes some reference to Helena Rubinstein.
