Driven by Klaus Flouride's hypnotic, pulsing bassline and East Bay Ray’s jagged, echo-drenched guitar leads, the track captures Dead Kennedys at their most dark and atmospheric. Extended across the 12-inch format to maximize bass response and sonic punch, this UK Statik Records pressing includes the brutal B-side \"Life Sentence\" alongside a rare live rendition of \"Moral Majority,\" making it an indispensable extended single from the band's peak political era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1982 UK import\/release by Statik Records (STAT 2212) and Alternative Tentacles (VIRUS 23).  First pressing of 12\" single.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve grades VG+.  \u003c\/strong\u003ePretty close to NM with maybe some light corner dings.  Includes original insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinyl grades VG+.  \u003c\/strong\u003ePlay tests clean with no issues.  Vinyl surface shows some light surface marks\/hairlines under magnification that don't impact playback.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CS5 Vinyl and Memorabilia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48126572462211,"sku":null,"price":19.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/3553\/6003\/files\/WIN_20260907_13_07_16_Pro.jpg?v=1788822263","url":"https:\/\/cs5music.com\/products\/dead-kennedys-bleed-for-me-12-1982-uk-1st-press-w-orig-insert","provider":"CS5 Vinyl and Memorabilia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
