The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks

One Little Indian TPLP3 1986 2X12"  (UK)

The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks is an album by UK anarcho-punk band Flux of Pink Indians. It was released as a double album on the band's own Spiderleg Records in 1984 as the follow-up to their debut, Strive to Survive Causing Least Suffering Possible.

The album was banned by several major retailers including HMV due to its sexually explicit title and cover art. Under the direction of James Anderton copies were seized, along with other records by Crass and The Dead Kennedys, by Greater Manchester Police from Eastern Bloc record shop. Frank Schofield was charged with displaying "Obscene Articles For Publication For Gain". The album's lyrical content, ironically, concerned violence between men and women, based on the experiences of a band member who had been sexually assaulted. The title was a Dada-style ploy to get attention for this social message. The band, its two record labels and its publishing company were also charged under the Obscene Publications Act, but all charges were dropped.

The album also featured artwork by Crass guitarist Andy Palmer.

The Fucking Cunts... reached number two on the UK Indie Chart, spending fifteen weeks on the chart in total. It was reissued in 1986 on band member Derek Birkett's own One Little Indian label.

1986 reissue of a double album originally released on Spiderleg in 1984.

Spiderleg cat# scratched out on vinyl and replaced with an (incorrect) OLI cat#, LPTP 3. The sleeve has correct OLI cat#, TPLP 3, printed on it.

There are no track titles or additional information on the sleeve or labels. All four sides of the vinyl are cut so they appear to have only one track on each of them.

    Matrix / Runout (Run-out Groove Etchings Side B): When it shits in your fucking face
    Matrix / Runout (Run-out Groove Etchings Side C): That fucking obscenity is just...
    Matrix / Runout (Run-out Groove Etchings Side D): Your fucked up distorted normality

A Note About Shipping To The U.S.
We are located in Canada, but have registered ourselves on eBay.com instead of eBay.ca because it gives us significantly better global exposure.  The problem with this is that eBay wants us to charge shipping appropriate to US, where media mail and other options make for fairly reasonable delivery costs. We tried it for a while but ended up losing money on shipping or having to cancel the orders because we couldn't afford to ship for those rates. To manage this we have set the US shipping to run a calculator based on an American location (we chose Plattsburgh as fairly close) and charging according to UPS pricing.  This avoids the cancellation issue, but appears to the buyer to be a prohibitive shipping cost and misrepresents the shipping as being only expedited. If you give us your postal code we will see if we can offer a more reasonable option, but generally we can get a single LP by air to most places in the continental US for $11, a few bucks less for ground.
Thanks for shopping Sir Helmitt,
