ADDITIONAL QUOTES:
this apparently looks like the most political and morally correct record CB
ever did. In reality, it's just a misunderstood attempt to express a concept
that wasn't clear enough in the scene. Sexism. Our aim never succeded. GTB's
opinion on feminism and woman's liberation was plain and simple...: equal rights?
Prove you're equal and gain your respectable place, stop the bullshit on female
= fragile, weak, sweet or whatever. Fight with the same weapons, show you're
not on an inferior level, even having a cultural background pointed against
your status. The long written article included in the record's insert was mainly
to explain what the word sexism exactly meant, since there were too many people
using that word just to fill empty political talks + doing witch-hunt vs bands
not conforming that mandatory standard to be in a certain elite. The end-result
of this record was disastrous. None got the message and CB made a real "own
goal" so far as this EP turned into a proof of mere contraddiction with
the attitude they assumed later... which isn't plainly sexist, but simply "bolenje
kurca" aka "don't-give-a-shit".. apolitical to the bone. Few
years later GTB asked the label to stop re-pressing it due to a ton of reasons..
CB and politics didn't match at all, probably the whole HC/Grind thing shouldn't
get mixed with issues creating barriers and hostility like this one. As a matter
of fact, few years later the "who's sexist" diatribe exploded in Italian
HC, first with the band CRUNCH - after one of their buddies got naked in front
of a girl after a show + the silly content of their records, and later with
CB themselves (the infamous "Who's got the 50 DM.." patch, then the
"Almost human" CD cover and so on). It would take a full book to describe
all the crap happened from '97 to the final CB decision to stay away from that
kinda scene. Anyway, the political content of this record was a real "own
goal" and we almost regret it now. Sexism is just a weapon for scene-cops,
but reality is ways distant from this whole talk. A funny story about the CB
front-cover on this: GTB & ATC found a huge porno VHS collection hidden
in a room of GTB's dad. Over 200 tapes. In summer '96 when he was out on holidays,
we took'em all on a large table and made the photo we used on the record's cover.
Bullshit on bullshit. Looking back at how this was done, everything looks so
sick now.
Musically, the stuff featured here is just different re-mixes of trax out of
"your lies in check" 's session. This is the first of 4 releases including
remixes from it (split LP w/ Suppression, split boot. EP w/ Wretched, a couple
comp.s on vinyl) ...
