Maybe it was Forget It. You Wouldn't Understand

"Brainwash," actually. I always liked how insidious it was.

I seem to remember they called it something else for the 7". I'm prolly wrong.

I don't personally know about the single, but according to a couple web pages out there, it had the same title on the 7. Now on the actual cover art (which I've not seen), it may be different, but I dunno.

What's going on with their catalogue? I've read vague mumblings that the out of print ALBUM and the rest will be reissued next year. I'm dying for this to happen, because I STILL DON'T OWN IT. Granted I'm 22 and I've only known about Flipper for, oh, 4 years, but it's damn near impossible to find.

EDIT: Scratch that, impossible to find for under $40 or so.

I found Public Flipper Limited on Soulseek today.

This is the greatest live album...it is rocking my fucking head off right now. 1 1/2 hours of drunken moronic sludge noise with the occasional amazing performance thrown in and tons of the greatest audience baiting ever recorded.

They were louder than Swans?!

I thought Swans - especially around '84 - were one of the loudest live bands to have ever played.
