An edition of 25 of these were made as part of a run of boxes that went out with the There Were Islands exhibition. The lyrics are a description of a performance in which I dragged a chunk of piano some distance toward Baltic 39, where it would later be exhibited as Carcass. This was done in a sort of mythic Death Metal English tone which exaggerated the idea of the chunk of instrument as a body and blurred the line between the physical strain of moving it, and its own physical qualities.
In a similar way, the plaster cast in the other side of the cassette case is taken from the innards of a cassette, and in its distressed and imperfect state represents a sort of skeleton, or fossil.
