The band's demos for this seminal album are issued on vinyl for the first time in specially-commissioned sleeve artwork (conceived by Brett Anderson) which resembles a cassette inlay. The LP includes the original demos of the classic singles The Drowners and Metal Mickey, as well as the album tracks Pantomime Horse, Sleeping Pills and He's Dead, plus B-side To The Birds. Also featured are the outtake Diesel and the rehearsal room recording Stars On 45.
