Seven of the hardest, greatest inches to come barreling down the Hershey Highway in a long time. Simmering explosive punk metal dished out in four movements. Sounds like Venom and Christian Death played backwards through a jet engine. By the end of this one you all should be fully constricted. Featuring Fag Bar and Exterminator.

The 45 comes w/ an orange cover of a drawing what looks like Ron Reckless riding a huge snake w/ a skull that's punching through the map of the United States w/ the words below reading "A Record For The Hole Nation".
There is also a folder sleeve that wraps around the 45 one side is photo of 3 mentally challenged girls on a lawn and the credits of the 45 are on that side.
The other side is an illustration by David Keating of the band w/ small sketches all around them. It sort of reminds me of Robert Crumb interpretation of Hieronymus Bosch 'Garden of Eden'. Also a single sheet from Placebo records list some of their catalogue and other side list members of the band w/ some quirky comments and for booking information phone Tony Victor.
