About The Record:

Hole in the Ground (12″ Single), by Sister Machine Gun, serves as a promotional vinyl companion to the band's album Burn, featuring various remixes of the aggressive industrial track Hole in the Ground, a fan-favorite known for its pounding rhythms and raw energy that remains a staple in the mid-90s American industrial underground. The single includes unique versions with an alternate vocal track censoring profanity by substituting words, a playful twist on the original's explicit lyrics, alongside the standard album version and remixes by Martin Atkins and Randall/Christie that amp up the track's club-ready intensity. Notably, excess promo copies were sold through the band's fan club, some featuring signatures by frontman Chris Randall on the label, making them highly sought-after collector's items. This release captures Sister Machine Gun's peak Wax Trax!-era aggression, blending industrial dance with experimental edge, and holds historical significance as a rare artifact from the genre's golden age. Tracks like the Martin Atkins remix and the Big Band On Acid version continue to be celebrated by fans for their innovative production and enduring replay value in underground sets.
