Drue Albeit found this one. "The cover is from Orwell's
Animal Farm. Inside the tape cover are a lot of political facts.
On the two live J Church songs, the bass is real low and can almost
not be heard over the squealing distortion and feedback of Lance's
amp."
Rob of vinehell.com,
who played on this release as part of Krupted Peasant Farmers and
who sent the cover scan, adds: "I believe it was a lo-fi home
dubbed tape with stickers applied to it, not an official tape".
That said, there is an ad on the inlay card for further tapes from
the address, so it looks like it was from a home tape label, the
sort of thing that was quite popular (though generally more 'professional')
in the days before cheap CD burners. It's not technically a bootleg,
which is why it's in this section, but it's not a great deal more
than that. Either way, it's not likely you're going to be seeing
many copies around.
The J Church tracks were recorded at Gilman Street prior to the
recording of Prophylaxis. The entire
album was played live several times before they entered the studio,
partly to familiarise the band (better prepared = quicker recording
= lower bills) and partly for song development.
