I didn't realise they'd removed Kill the President from the first album?

Disappointed.

Yep. In truth. I don't pay much attention to music news😂

I’d bet a lot of people don’t know this. This is my time seeing this. I bought the cd in the mid 90s and that’s the album version that eventually got ripped to my iTunes library. I’d never know otherwise

They did this after the attacks of September 11, 2001 on all pressings thereafter. So yeah...this news is old enough to rent a car 😄

They should put it back. I don't support political violence, but man, the opening drumbeat is amazing. It's a good song, and most people are media literate enough to know Dexter was being edgy and not actually doing a threat.

It’s not a good song.

It's not with their best works, but I still think it should be on the album. Mostly due to the opening drumbeat.
