Here are a few more gems that I've been sitting on for a while. Technically speaking, the only thing here that has received an official release is the regular version of the self-titled
Prick album. The version of
Smells Like Children included here is the one that includes all the uncleared
Willy Wonka samples and the abuse tapes that were deemed too extreme for release. Whether those abuse tapes are real or not, the intended atmosphere of terror is achieved. As for the
Mossiman tapes, they were leaked by an interviewer after receiving them from
Scott Putesky, pka
Daisy Berkowitz. I'm not 100% convinced of their legitimacy, but that's not to say I think the material contained therein is fake, rather I'm not sure they're really finished mixes as the samples are so far in the back of the mix that they're often unnoticeable unless you know what you're listening for. These are clearly professional recordings and some of the performances are the same ones used on the finished version of
Portrait Of An American Family, they simply might be rough mixes though rather than
Mossiman's intended finished products. Being that they're clearly unmastered and transferred from a commercial-grade audio cassette, it's understandable that they don't sound as good as they could sound, so who really knows. They're probably legit, but unless
Trent,
Manson,
Twiggy or someone else involved in the sessions confirms their legitimacy we'll probably never know for certain.
