No, the title isn’t (at least not entirely) intended as a sexual euphemism, as you might expect from the tongue-in-cheek quartet Crazy Mary. It’s actually a descriptive statement about the contents of the EP — namely digital remixes of songs that previously turned up on the full-length albums Burning Into the Spirit World (“Voices of Freedom”) and, from the preceding year, Knucklehead (the other four). There are few noticeable changes to these versions — an organ or a trumpet is punched up here, a vocal is clarified or de-emphasized there, some electronic glosses are superimposed throughout — but nothing really dramatic. Nevertheless, this is a nice little stopgap for fans, especially since it also represents the valedictory release of bassist George Kerezman, who had passed away the previous spring. – Stanton Swihart
