A Re-issue of the second album from Billy Childish, Bruce Brand and Big Russ, aka THE POP RIVETS. Originally issued on their own Hypocrite Records in December 1979.

This is the first time it has been re-issued with the original tracks re-mastered from the master tapes and with great new artwork lovingly put together by original member Bruce Brand at Arthole Retrographics (recently responsible for THE WHITE STRIPES "Elephant" sleeve and THE DARKNESS's album to name but two).

Billy Childish has written new sleeve notes. In 1979 THE POP RIVETS embarked on two self-promoted tours of Switzerland and Germany and recorded their 2nd LP - "Empty Sounds From Anarchy Ranch".

Two further EP's appeared in 1980 before The Pop Rivets recorded a lost John Peel session and split up.
