The EP's three songs were later appended as bonus tracks to the CD release of Holy Money. Background and compositionThe EP's title track sees the band diving their farthest into the realm of industrial dance music, complete with dubby, distorted vocals and complex programmed rhythms, a distinct contrast to the naturalistic album version.[1] The piano-driven ode to obsessive love, "Blackmail", was Jarboe's first Swans track as lead vocalist.[1] A reworked version of "Blackmail" appears on the 1987 album Children of God.[2] Regarding his contribution to the EP's title track, drummer Ted Parsons said: {{quote|"But you know the first recording I did with Swans, was "A Screw" on Holy Money? I get in there – I can’t remember what the studio was – and Michael Gira the singer said, "Well, you know what? There’s no drum kit here, we just want to set a snare drum up in the hallway and have you hit it." And I was like, "What? OK." So they set the snare up in this big hallway down this corridor, and I hit the drum, and that was it. They sampled it, and he said, "OK, that’s great, go home." That was it. That was "A Screw.""[3]}}Track listing{{Track listing| title1 = A Screw | length1 = 5:40 | title2 = Blackmail | length2 = 4:42 | title3 = A Screw (Holy Money) | note3 = Mix | length3 = 4:58 | total_length = 15:20 }}Notes
