Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

  • "Hamburger Lady," which combines cold, mechanical electronics and thoroughly effects-fed vocals, with lyrics taken from a medical letter involving a severe burn-ward victim.
  • "Slug Bait", in which Genesis gives a detailed first-person description of a Mau Mau uprising atrocity.
  • "Persuasion." Built around a tape of a desperately pleading woman, with jarring guitar, two-note bass, and monotonous vocals, the song is essentially about emotionally abusing a woman to get her to shed her clothes.
  • "Very Friendly," off The First Annual Report. It's like Slug Bait, but with one of the Moors killings, and it lasts about 18 minutes. Genesis sounds more or less detached, but gets more enthusiastic as he carries on, up to the climax of the piece, sparing absolutely no details, relevant or not.
