V/A " It Came from the Pit" LP

Psyche Industries followed up the "Primitive Air Raid" comp with a comp that featured bands from across Canada.  Psyche Industry was done by a guy named Randy Boyd who was a guy from Edmonton that re-located to Montreal to start up this label.  This comp was done in the spirit of the "Something to Believe in" comp. Randy approached SNFU about being on the comp when SNFU played a show in Montreal. The Belke Brothers knew Randy Obsure Alternatives, which was a punk record store that Randy had back in Edmonton. When SNFU got back from their tour in the fall of 1985, Chi's roomate David Mockford had just finished a course in sound engineering. His teachers encouraged him to take on this project as a course project which he did. Rather than use material from the next album SNFU decided to cover Warren Zevon's "Poor Pitiful Me". Chris Walter notes that "this was an unusual choice of covers for a punk compilation." SNFU chose the song because they just wanted to have some fun. The rest of the songs on "It Came from the Pit" are :

1. S.C.U.M. - Exit Death
2. My Dog Popper - Rock Stars are Assholes
3. My Dog Popper - Equal Time
4. Enigmas - Teenage Barnacle
