IV 19: Religion and Politics 2x7"

PI's final studio material before their break up in 1993, released as a double 7" on the Australian label Insipid Vinyl. You get three new songs, a RIPPING live version of "Say Goodbye" (which imo blows away the LP version), and a slick cover of Devo's "Blockhead". I've always assumed these songs were recorded at the same time as We Must Burn, but since there's no recording information on any version of this record — this 2x7", the 10" version or the CD — I couldn't say for sure. Grab the CD version or the split 7" with Babes In Toyland if you want to hear PI's destructive version of GISM's classic "Death, Agonies and Screams".

TEST PRESS - unknown amount
No known sleeve.

FIRST PRESS - unknown amount
I swear there used to be pressing amounts around for this one floating around online, but I'll be damned if I can find it anywhere. At any rate, there are a limited amount on green vinyl and a larger amount on black vinyl (how's that for useful pressing info?). Someone on Discogs says "The second record of the two is in transparent green vinyl" so I'm assuming there must be at least one mismatched copy out there.
