What the label says:

The kings of punk and hardcore FUCKED UP return with a mammoth 12-inch single, second in a series of records based on the Chinese Zodiac. Year of the Pig is an 18-minute 34-second long prog-punk masterpiece featuring lush piano and organ arrangements by MAX DANGER (THE DEADLY SNAKES) and guest vocals by Toronto's JENNIFER CASTLE. Year of the Pig starts with gentle guitar and soothing organ before heading into darker territory with gruff male vocals offset by Castle's angelic singing and a meandering bass line. It's not until a full 7-and-a-half minutes in  that the track explodes into a Keith Moon-esque drum workout, which is followed by a one note Neu! trick that builds up to a thrash attack. It's The Wall as written and recorded by Poison Idea.

About the humble 12":

The 12" is the big brother of records as it's an fatter version of the 7", with a vast scope for an array of remixes and B sides. They are slightly less portable their smaller inched brethren but they're by no means inferior. Often the grooves are spaced wider apart and thus sound much much better. You can fit ample tracks on and if worse comes to worse they make fine plates (should your crockery go awol). Yes, there's a hole but holes are easy to sort out. Once again they're available on many different colours and guises. The best thing about a 12" is the potential vastness of the artwork. Also playable on many speeds!!
