I'll ave to hope the 7th song is o iTunes or something. Brilliant EP though, though quite what can be re-mastered about it is a bit baffling.

Very annoying

I bought this when it came out, and now they add another track? What's the point!

re-mastered??

I don't get why people remaster things unless it is really dodgy in the first place. Even then it has it's own charm! This EP I thought was quite slick anyway - especially the first track with the fuzz bass - purrs out of the speakers!

Will look forward to hearing the new track though - sure itunes will sell it.
