I've seen it on ebay but that's about it. It has different packaging than everything of theirs I've ever seen. I don't know the tracklist or label. So I'm not completely sure it exists.

During 1993, before the musical genre that would become known as "emo" had started to trickle through to the UK's fledgling hardcore scene, a little-known band from Nottingham, England called bob tilton (named after an American evangelist television star) recorded a 7 inch EP for Subjugation that would come to define the label's identity and distinction.

The untitled EP was released in early 1994, and helped by a limited pressing of 1000 copies and rumours spreading fast of the bands incredible live show, it sold out almost immediately and was later re-pressed.

"If you're an emo band and you name yourself after a person you're like automatically awesome, Neil Perry, Amanda Woodward, Van Johnson- there's atleast 2 that I'm forgetting."

Francis Brady, Maximillian Colby, Tristan Tzara, Charles Bronson.

Went to their last show in Nottingham. It was amazing. Used to by records from their singer in Select-a-disc in Nottingham all the time.
