Release
The single was released on City Slang records in Europe in August 1991 to promote Pretty on the Inside, and entered the UK Indie Chart at number 1 in September. On The Chart Show, the song's title was censored, with the word "whore" being replaced with ellipsis.
The single was available on 7" vinyl as well as compact disc, and marked the band's first CD release; all their prior singles had been released solely on vinyl. It featured b-sides "Drown Soda" and "Burn Black", which was also featured as a b-side on the band's 1991 Sub Pop release, "Dicknail".

Famous quotes containing the word release:
“We read poetry because the poets, like ourselves, have been haunted by the inescapable tyranny of time and death; have suffered the pain of loss, and the more wearing, continuous pain of frustration and failure; and have had moods of unlooked-for release and peace. They have known and watched in themselves and others.”
—Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
“The shallow consider liberty a release from all law, from every constraint. The wise man sees in it, on the contrary, the potent Law of Laws.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“As nature requires whirlwinds and cyclones to release its excessive force in a violent revolt against its own existence, so the spirit requires a demonic human being from time to time whose excessive strength rebels against the community of thought and the monotony of morality ... only by looking at those beyond its limits does humanity come to know its own utmost limits.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
