Notes:

Initial release, packaged in a Hearts & Crosses mailer outer-sleeve, with the words "Thou Shalt Not Bend," on the front and "Thou Shalt Not Steal," on the back. Mastered at Town House Studios, London Release packaging and labels are very vague (and sometimes incorrect) about the contents. A-side label reads "The Power Of Love" and "The World Is My Oyster" B-side labels reads "Scrapped And Trapped" and "Holier Than Thou". Actual tracklisting above. Cat# on label: 12 ztas 5 Cat# on back sleeve: 12ZTAS 5 Cat# on back of special outer sleeve: 12 ZTAS 5 [Sleeve notes - edited … co-ordination: zang tumb tomb records Eased out of the shadow of the dome of pleasure … The World Is My Oyster (scrapped): an innocent version plucked from the ZTT vaults: Holly knows it's all white. (trapped): a guilty insight into the American compromise: Ped tells you how. … Holier Than Thou: hear Frankie Goes To Hollywood place their faith in you … The third single is number five in Zang Tumm Tumb's defiled Action Series. 'Men are bits of cold paper, whirled by the cold wind.'
