Following last summer's straight up 'best of The Bullet', Centurion, we thought that this summer we'd instead go for something a little broader. Fraternitas is intended to serve as a thank you to all the fine labels who have unleashed a Magic Bullet album on their unsuspecting listeners, our Bandcamp release including links directly to our albums on theirs, so they know we appreciate their valiant sacrifice, vis-à-vis damage to their hearing and reputations.

Mostly, we've picked what we thought was the best track on each album (or edit thereof), except with Cruditas, where that concept didn't really work coz it was only a promotional EP / mini album. So, we didn't want to include anything that was already available on our Bandcamp, and four of the tracks are (three on Communitas, one on Curiositas), and Officer Kitty And The God Of Love will be soonish on the Officer Kitty: Legacy project. So, what we did was stitch together all the bits from the Magic Bullet session on Cruddy's Punk & Beyond radioshow that it was intended to promote, which kind of works better for the listener, because it hasn't been previously released. Sorted.

In addition, we've included three tracks made by other artistes upon which we are credited; Conny Plankton, Filmy Ghost and Howl in the Typewriter.

And finally, a vintage bonus track, originally from our (in the Magic Moments At Twilight Time sense of the word 'our') 1991 album, White Hawk Atomic (Live On Alpha Nebuli IV), digitally remastered in 2015 by Klappstuhl for the best of MMATT double album, Flashbax Ω Ultimate.
