[kj] Rudimentary Peni

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

The "chorus" of "Universe B" is the "crazed couplet" from HP Lovecraft's 
necromancer, Abdul Alhzared: "That is not dead which can eternal lie/ 
And in strange aeons death may die." Metallica and Rudimentary Peni have 
used that line, too.

I've read/have a copy of Primal Screamer. It's okay. Not worth the 
ludicrous prices 3rd party sellers are wanting for it on Amazon. They 
need to make a new printing to undercut those vultures.
