[edit] Track information
[edit] "Egg Raid On Mojo"
This is one of the few hardcore punk songs that the band still plays. Liner notes from the anthology The Sounds of Science state that the song is based on an event where members of the band were denied entry to a club by a bouncer, later returning, dressed in black, to pelt the offender with eggs. Some of the lyrics, such as "We, all, dressed in black" were reused in the Paul's Boutique song "Egg Man".
The Some Old Bullshit compilation includes an alternate version taped from Tim Sommer's "Noise The Show" radio program.
