Recorded over Halloween, the sound engineering is sub-par & uses triggers at the sound engineer's insistence, which the band protested against. The triggers went off randomly, screwing up the beats per minute & they also were clicky & just didn't sound good, providing an inauthentic sound that the band didn't sound like live. The guitars were also divided, and that kind of separation of sound is not what the band sounded like since they went for a wall of blended sound.
This EP features a re-recording of Final Conquest which was originally recorded with transitional line-up that included DJ on guitar & Neill on bass in 1995 for the Psycho Dubs cassette release. The original version of the song is more crust-punk, while this version of it has all the crust taken out of it & is more Metal.
This EP was more common than the split that was released using half the material. The split used the same cover, but it was a yellow cover with a different back cover that reflected that it was a split with 2 bands. This full EP was released on cassette & vinyl while the split was vinyl only. The full Lost On Earth EP also included a high quality black on white vinyl bumper sticker with the 1st 100 released.
Overall, the material is stronger than this recording of it. The sound engineering did not capture how the material actually sounded, so it's hard to rate it. There are live board recorded bootlegs & rehearsal tapes of this material that sound far better than this costly studio recording.

Band line-up: Mike-voice, Brad-drums, Timmy-bass, Greenaway-1st guitar, Arnette-other guitar.
There's nothing rare about this material nor unreleased. It's all been released before - officially with all performers knowledge & consent. Most tracks are all from 1999 Future Is War album, while the last two were from 1996 Lost On Earth EP.

Considered by many to be the band's last official recording before it self-imploded & never re-organised again with any amount of stability, this is the final swan song of a legendary, yet very obscure band that always teetered on self-destruction, but attained well-earned respect by its peers. For as obscure as this band was, it was recognized as an explosive fire-storm of sou... Read More

Highly regarded as a definitive album by this particular line-up, the material has been called scary & dangerous by other musicians. The recording took place late at night & the band members were tired from moving into a new rehearsal house, but the band's tightness & knowledge of their own material overshadows any mistakes. It was engineered by a guy known only as Ed in his ow... Read More
