Twin tower porn music: I Like to Watch on vinyl

The music from Chris Korda's infamous "I Like to Watch" video is finally available on on vinyl. The video, which combines 9-11 media coverage with professional sports and hard-core pornography, has been downloaded more than 250,000 times since it first appeared on the Church of Euthanasia web site, on December 11 of last year. The Boston-based Church has been advocating suicide, abortion, cannibalism, sodomy, and voluntary population reduction since it was founded by Rev. Chris Korda in 1992.

The EP was released on Null Records, and is distributed by Possible Music, both in Berlin. In addition to the original video mix, the 12" includes house remixes by Chris Korda, Richard Bartz, and Paul Davis, plus an industrial remix by Cannibal Whore Feast. The cover features color images from the video, such as the WTC being licked by a giant tongue.

Finding a label with the artistic integrity to release "I Like to Watch" was not easy; Null Records was the eleventh label Korda tried. Several labels agreed to the release, and then changed their minds after talking to their distributors. Another label insisted on a plain black cover, which would have sent the wrong message, says Korda: "I'm not ashamed of being sexually aroused by 9-11, I'm ashamed of being american. People are saluting the flag and praying to Jesus while we incinerate what's left of the earth, and I'm sick of it."
