Notes

Packaged in a jewel case with a 4-page folded insert.

All tracks have appeared previously on LP and cassette compilations.

Tracks 1, 2 & 3 were originally released as one half of the Nightmare Culture Mini-LP on LAYLAH Anti-Records (LAY 14), under the group name Sickness Of Snakes. This consisted of John Balance, Peter Christopherson, and Boyd Rice, to whom we owe many thanks for his co-operation and collaboration.
Track 4 was originally released on the German Ohrensausen compilation LP in a limited edition of 1000 (500 black, 500 white vinyl) (DOM V77-03). It was recorded at the same 9 hour session as tracks 1, 2 & 3 and also features Boyd Rice.
Track 5 was included on Life At The Top, a compilation on Third Mind Records (TMLP07). The track is an out-take from our Scatology sessions.
Track 6 was released on a Nekrophile Records compilation cassette called The Beast 666 (NRC03). The track dates from 1983. It also formed the musical base for the Zos Kia song "Rape" which was released as a 7" on All The Men Records.
Track 7 first appeared on The Elephant Table Album (A Compilation Of Difficult Music) album, a double compilation LP, released by X Tract Records (XX001).
Track 8 appeared on a compilation cassette called Peyrere in 1986. It is an early demo track from around the Scatology era.
Track 9 was recorded at home by John Balance in 1983. It previously appeared on the limited edition cassette Raw Like Sewage (not in the database yet) on the Premonition label.
Track 10 forms part of the soundtrack to Derek Jarman's film "The Angelic Conversation". It first appeared on a cassette called Less Than Angels, a release limited to 100 copies.
Track 11 released on a limited 7" single on the Shock 45 (SX002) label. Actually, the track does not appear on Wrong Eye / Scope.
Track 12 was previously released on the LAYLAH Anti-Records compilation The Fight Is On.
Track 13 is available as a one-sided LP on LAYLAH Anti-Records: How To Destroy Angels (LAY5). It is "Ritual Music For The Accumulation Of Male Sexual Energy". The version included on this compilation is monaural, contrary to the original stereo 12" release.
