From four different sessions this EP was culled and surprisingly - with the exception of the title track, it all sounds fairly consistent. 'Gimme Natural Selection' was recorded an a sound enginieering school, and in what you may call a lightning fast timeframe. Still I think it's a killer song, and while having been recorded to tape, it probably is the worst sounding recording we have ever done. In saying that, I mean muddy and dense, as opposed to that digital clarity he he. The one thing that really buzzed me on this studio though, was that supposedly The Birthday Party recorded 'Prayers On Fire' there and I guess the vocal mic I used would have been the same one Nick Cave would have. I'm not an obsessive fan of anything, but that was something to 'sing' about I think.
'Ace Of Spades' was recorded during a pre production session for 'The End Of Forever', while 'DMDA In The Raw' is from the 'Death Mutation...' demo. 'I Wish You Were A Beer' was a classic tune from the Cycle Sluts From Hell and definitely their only decent song. We rewrote some of the lyrics, but even still it remains a classic.
