Er...this tape is great!
I found my cassette to WAV machine, and I really like it.
There is a HUGE amount of tape hiss - I thought my machine wasn't working properly - and side 1 starts off really quietly (a bit like Nothing (Jehovahkill)), but if you break open your enhancer/relaxer of choice, sit back and listen to this cassette for 42 minutes it really works.
I think you've got to like tracks like Rock Section/American Werewolf and the more far out tracks on Jehovahkill or Drain'd Boner like Pa Doden's Trae (which luckily is my sort of thing).
I prefer it to the 12" - it really deserves a digital release though, coz there's a lot of very low volume music almost drowned out by tape hiss.
Edit - what do you know about John Dryden who co-wrote track 2 - 17th Century poet - From Wikipedia:
Absalom and Achitophel is a landmark poetic political allegory, often satirical, by John Dryden (1631–1700). It was published in 1681. The poem tells the story of the rebellion of Absalom against King David, but that story is a cover or mask for satirical depictions of Charles II, and others, and the events of the day, which include the Popish Plot (1678), the Exclusion Crisis (1679-1681), and the Monmouth Rebellion (1685).
