Revision as of 21:19, 3 April 2016

The title of this 7" bootleg derives from the fact that the complete cover is mirror inverted so that BURN can be read NRUB. Therefore the single is also known as Burn 7". As the mirror-inverted Head & Star logo on the back cover is crossed by the lettering "FIERCER THAN THOU" and the same lettering does appear on the vinyl as well, the bootleg is also referred to as Fiercer Than Thou as well.

Track List

NRUB - First edition black/gold cover (front)



About the tracks

  • NRUB is Burn played backwards.
Some of the singing is, however, not backwards, so that the following lines can be identified:

The catherine wheel a ring of fire
We'll burn this circus down
The wheel goes round and the flames get higher

The juggling men and the idiot clowns

Parts of this text can also be found in the lyrics to Burn It Down.
