Piracy

Overview

Piracy --- 1988

Both "Piracy" and "0²" demos tape labels were done the same way. An 8.5" x 11" abstract art illustration was done by Screamer, and printed onto a sheet of label paper, so every label gets a different piece of the artwork, making 8 different possible label designs, chosen at random ("Piracy" labels done on white paper" and "0²" done on yellow paper. Therefore, no two copies have the same combination of label designs. After these artwork labels ran out Screamer wrote out small hand-cut labels with the titles and track lengths, in his very distinct writing style (used on all Absolute Zero releases). During the creation of "0²", to postpone running out of labels, the round center parts of the labels (normally thrown away) were also used as well, some tapes getting a complete label on one side and the round piece on the other side, or even 2 round different round peices. Piracy only used the complete labels on both sides, then the hand-written ones. Also, sometimes the artwork labels had the side numbers written on then by Screamer in black marker.
