This is a crucial release in Crass's discography and the anarcho-punk movement. The spoken-word format of "Reality Asylum" and the raw, confrontational nature of both tracks make this a standout in their catalog. Original 1979 pressings with the fold-out poster sleeve are highly collectible. The catalogue number 521984 follows Crass's pattern of using dates as catalogue numbers (5/2/1984 being their self-imposed "sell-by date").
