Artwork, Layout, Mastering, and more BUTCHERED by Ryan Slowgun.

Due to it's overwhelming popularity, all 300 copies sold out within days of their release. The band briefly considered a second pressing via another label; not to satiate public demand, but due to the mishandling of the EP by the record label. The band declared their art as having been "butchered". Shoddy mastering (or the lack thereof) resulted in beginnings of songs being chopped off. Proofreading errors skewed many lyrics, making the band seem unintelligent. The most infuriating and inexcusable offense however, was the label's omission of various portions of the original artwork. This included removing the band's "Alleygay Crew" logo, which Slowgun feared might place them in the middle of an awkward controversy. Ultimately, the band made their own revised lyric sheets, which were passed out at their shows for free.
