Incidental notes:
“Empty Men” was recorded at Bootleg Studios in December 1980. This was Victim’s attempt at recreating the “Good Vibrations” sound! The song is about those people we all meet in life who bull-shit about everything, yet offer nothing.

"The Bus" kicks off the flip side and was recorded at the same time as the A side. The Inspiration for the song came from catching the wrong bus one day in Belfast and spending the journey in the company of passengers with various disabilities and mental health conditions.

The final track on the EP is “Another Weird Dream”. This is the only song Victim ever wrote about “The Troubles” in N. Ireland. They never felt the need to elaborate further on their teenage experiences during this period. This track was recorded in April 1982, again at Bootleg Studios in Manchester.
