    Are we all just going to ignore the fact that David Chesworth basically invented math rock in 1980 (although Captain Beefheart had already sort of invented it in '69)? Seriously, it's insane how track 2 could pass for a modern math rock work.

      I noticed the alternative picture sleeve that is uploaded here for this release which has no yellow included in the screen print. Does anyone know how many of this version were screened out of the 500 copies? Was this an oversight? or intentional? or did they simply run out of yellow ink? These important questions need answers...
      I love the Star Trek sample used in 3 Against 4 and always thought How Low Can You Go... (?) was a rather cool track.
