Ttrack with haunting/disturbing lyrics found on a 1993 Royal Bank Of Scotland cassette featuring demos of bands recorded at Edinburgh's Jewel And Esk Valley College. Little is known about the composer, the inlay card features no tracklisting or artist credits, though a brief introduction is given at the start of the cassette - although it doesn't appear to be consistent with the actual running order.

Enjoy the original sound before some douchey white boy sanitizes it and it becomes the next hipster fad. And by "some douchey white boy" I mean me, of course.

Can't find enough of "Why Shit So Crazy?" on YouTube, particularly A Future in the Future and Get Your Shoes On and Fields of Donegal but this should get you started
