Chris: I've only had a chance to give em one quick listen,
but, to be brief, V/Vm's Pig is on pink vinyl, pink sleeved,
with a lovely little pig sticker on the labels. One side is
the sounds of pigs at the slaughterhouse awaiting their
fate (I'm a vegetarian, but had I not been, this might have
prodded me in that direction), the other is sortof an
"interview" (again, one rushed listen) with a worker in the
pig industry.  The 4 X 7" Machine (component parts 1-4)
package is in grey (vinyl and packaging) with assembly
line type of packaging (tick boxes, check marks, punch
codes, etc) and the music is the sounds of machines
(literally at times and f*cked with, at times(. Again, from
one quick listen. Oh I relish the days when I had nothing
to do but listen to records and devote to them 100%
of my attention, play them over and over and over again
;) Andrew  PS I'm doing up the March Electronics Report
and RA chart this week and they'll be some V/Vm represented
in there (hopefully more coherently than the above blather)
