Radio Sessions

Released Europe: 7th June '93

CD/LP______ANX CD/LP 80 Anxious Records.

    Session 1: 30th March '91
  1. Ten little girls (4:42)
  2. No escape from heaven (4:48)
  3. The colour hurts (3:49)
  4. Coast is clear (4:15)
    Session 2: 23rd February '92
  5. Die like a dog (4:36)
  6. Horror head (3:30)
  7. Arms out (4:47)
  8. Split into fractions (4:49)

These are recordings from 2 sessions done for the show John Peel does for the BBC in the UK.
As written in the booklet: "Most songs appear in radically different forms to the original versions Coast is clear being written especially for the session (the day before) so it's still in its embryonic stage and Arms out..." If this means Arms out being especially written for the session too is up to you. These are the songs which differ regarding structure IMO.
Ten little girls is credited as being written by (Halliday / Garcia / Pandy). Mr. Pandy seems to be JC-001, the rapper on the Blindfold EP, who does not rap on this version.
