Maybe cause it’s not as rare as We got the Neutron Bomb it’s less talked about? Weirdos debut and in my opinion better then their proclaimed classic second release. It has one dull moment: Life of Crime but Destroy All Music has to be the best song I’ve heard with ‘em, including a dozens or so compilations with demos, outtakes etc. By the way, the sleeve has to be one of the greatest ever.
While it’s not as rare as We got… there’s a couple of different pressings around that Ryan/Break My Face tries to clarify:

Okay, time for me to take ou-t of the posting queue. :-)Monster of a record, really. Total love from me to this and you and everyboy.
Superb vocals on Why Do You Exist.
“Life of crime” is stopping and starting again at 0:34. Seriously unprofessional from your part Peter! Extremely dissapointing!
No it´s not. Guess you have to take another listen.
Haha! Crazy man, you fixed it, right! By the way, i don’t think it’s as good as the “We got the neutron bomb” single, but it’s certainly close to being as good. Also, it’s absolutely true that “Destroy all music” in overlooked! That record is still in print at Bomp! and i recently bought a copy. Fantastic band & record! Thanks for the rip, i won’t have to rip my copy! By the way, you knew i was sarcastic when i called you unprofessional? I bet you did funny kid!
Ha ha yeah John I knew you was sarcastic and that’s why I love you.
Flesh for Lulu did a great version of “A Life of Crime”…
So did Laughing Hyenas, dude.
No way, bro…
Filled with energy “destroy all music” always makes me wanna pogo!
