Clarification needed[edit]

The article currently says the original pressing was "785 copies" but then later says the 2008 "framed edition" was "limited to 777 copies, the same number as the original pressing." This obviously doesn't match. Someone needs to fix this info, as appropriate. Then there's the line:

This album is pre-framed in bespoke, high-quality white gloss acrylic with an easy access clear window for removal of the record/sleeve.

Huh? What doesn't that even mean? Someone please reword this to clarify. dcljr (talk) 23:56, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't mean a lot of things.  It does mean ""The album is pre-framed in bespoke, high quality white gloss acrylic with an easy access clear window for removal of the record/sleeve."  Hope this helps.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.83.127.252 (talk) 14:42, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Live Album?[edit]

Yes there are parts of the album that are recorded in studio, but aside from Industrial Introduction & part of Maggot Death, the rest of the album is live. Should the album be called a live album or a studio album? — Preceding unsigned comment added by This.Is.An.Enigma (talk • contribs) 04:29, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a significant "part of Maggot Death" that was NOT recorded in the studio, then? If you have an insight into that recording...

Or, is it that your copy (like so many following the originals) erroneously lists the entire second half of the first side (tracks 5 to 8) of the album as "Maggot Death" - including even the DJ&audience 'outro' that is track 8? Beardie0 (talk) 00:33, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

2011 Release[edit]

There is a new release of 2nd Annual out recently. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bryanbabylon (talk • contribs) 12:01, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fetish reissue & destruction of plates fallacy[edit]

"Incidentally, the story about them being destroyed is untrue, I had them until the early 1990s when I foolishly sold them to the guy who ran Resurrection Records in Camden (for about £25/30)" - this from the person who started Fetish Records and was responsible for the repressing.
