It's important to note that this ISN'T Arab on Radar. Oxes used to use Arab on Radar's name to get shows, and then when they arrived at the concert they would say "Arab on Radar" had to cancel, and play the shows.
This "SPLIT EP" actually used to have a sticker stuck to it that says "100% Oxes" which was their disclaimer. The "Arab on Radar song on this is Oxes impersonating Arab on Radar :)
Wtf game of telephone did you play? 11 years too late here but the internet is forever so let me set the record straight: we did the record out of admiration for AOR, knowing that since they sounded so unique, we could pull off sounding remotely like them and it might fly. It was a concept and prank to friends. Never sold more records for it OR ever booked shows under their name. Boloney!

Wasn't this ep solely oxes and they just said it was a split? I think there was some controversy over that for a second.
Yeah, the record did ruffle some feathers with a few people for sure.
