This is a fun one; possibly their 1980s equivalent of Zappa & The Mothers' We're Only In It For The Money. I wish they would reissue this, with the original EP comprising Side 1, and the non-beatbox version of 'Master-Dik', a live version of 'Beat On the Brat' (from Hold That Tiger or one of the similar unofficial bootlegs), the 'I'm On Fire' edit from the Nothing Short of Total War compilation, and maybe one or two unreleased things or an interview comprising Side 2.
A little light-hearted (and overlooked and underestimated) gemstone in the Sonic Youth crown. The funnier side of Ciccone Youth, the joke of which no one seemed to get at the time, sadly...
