NOTES
This EP, released just half a year after "Confusion Is Sex", features several cuts from "Confusion", one live recording, and 3 new songs recorded live to 2-track at Wharton's studio in October 1983. "Shaking Hell" was recorded on October 15th, 1983 @ Plugg Club in NYC.
"Kill Yr Idols" was the first Sonic Youth release on Zensor, hence the inclusion of 2 songs from "Confusion is Sex", which wasn't released on Zensor until later (along with the self-titled record).
First pressing had title super-imposed over "Confusion Is Sex" cover.
The four non-Confusion songs were included as bonus tracks on the DGC reissue of "Confusion is Sex" in 1995.
Bootleg copies with white, yellow, etc covers started appearing in shops circa 2013.
From FILTER magazine 2006 SY discography self-commentary:
"An EP made in 1983, released in Germany when it seemed that no-one else was interested in releasing a Sonic Youth record. Consolidating gains made on Confusion--and rocking tunes direct to 2-track tape, no funny studio business--some becoming staples in our set--like Brother James. [LR]"
