In fact it's Industrial right down to the abandoned machine on the cover and the Dadaist song titles. The a-side starts with a voice describing being fed drugs intravenously, followed by Throbbing Gristle-style guitar and some early Whitehouse synth action. Not to mention some punky angst vocals that remind me of early Ramleh, and another voice uttered through a harmonizer.
The b-side just has the guitar and vocals, although only two notes are played repetitively in a slow fashion, and the lyrics are a bit more incendiary. Seems like the whole theme is resistance to control, of course a recurring theme in this kind of music.
This might not sound like much on paper, but this trio do what they do so perfectly it's a shame this is the only document that remains here...
edit: I changed the date finding out that the record label had two other releases listed on Discogs dating from 1998-99. And I also found out this band contains members of the death metal group Landfill...
