I have 3 of these bundles available.

Contains:

1) ONE glass cassette - Glass Torn and War Shortage: The Purposeful Poisoning of a Shardless Society on Auris Apothecary. Unopened wax sealed copy #74,75,76 of only 199 made, signed by Mike IX Williams, in perfect brand new broken glass condition. Lowest number goes to first purchased, highest to the last. Unplayed. Mainly because it's covered in glass and you'll have to bloody yourself to get to the cassette, uh, anti-cassette. See more below.

2) Outlaw Order 'Legalize Crime' cd with bonus track on Deep Six Records - This is the debut ep from Outlaw Order. Includes live bonus track.

Track Listing:

"Byproduct of a Wrecked Society" (2:33)

"Delinquent Reich" (3:04)

"Illegal in 50 States" (2:08)

"D.B.S.E." (3:15)

"Worst Liar I Ever Met" (Live) (3:28)

"Worst Liar I Ever Met" is a bonus track on the CD reissue, and, according to Mike Williams, will never be recorded in a studio. "D.B.S.E." stands for "Double Barrel Solves Everything". Track 5 was recorded live on September 1, 2003 in New Orleans, Louisiana.

These items come from the vocalist's private archives that he is begrudgingly selling off in order to pay for mounting medical expenses. Caveat Emptor. May result in bloodshed, frustration, and splinters of glass beneath your nails.

INFO

MIKE IX WILLIAMS is no stranger to controversy, having spent his life dedicated to releasing boundary-destroying music in scores of socially-progressive bands. With his solo material, MIKE IX continues to unleash proclamations of obliteration through a dualistic harsh noise and spoken word attack, riding the fine line between evangelical emissions and total mental decay. Auris Apothecary is pleased to finally present the most dangerous and abstract physical manifestation of the intensity MIKE IX is known for with Glass Torn and War Shortage: The Purposeful Poisoning of a Shardless Society.

An anti-cassette which has been coated with the dust and shards of broken glass, Glass Torn and War Shortage is almost 17 minutes of pummeling harsh noise coupled with a vocal barrage of misanthropic observations and articulations, its devastating message only being matched by the paradoxically-intimidating beauty of the musical artifact. Definitely not for the faint of heart.
