A single-sided testpressing for the This Corrosion 12" Elektra promo.

To all likeliness, the A-side of the above mentioned promo got pressed individually as it was to feature the short vocal edit version of the song, while the extended version would go on Side B. The test pressing for the original 12" single had the extended version of the song on Side A, the pressing of which could therefore be used for the B-side of the 12" promo. The shorter version of the song had until then been available only in 7" format.
