Nuns Have No Fun is more common [nick]name of this seminal mini album [1982] by legendary Danish five-piece, due to the eponymous song and provoking cover artwork - otherwise we talk here four tracks that changed the world of heavy metal down to ominous, destructive, and insane side, staking out their own diabolic territory within sulfuric vasts of dangerous music zone; as bold and brave back in the day, as cult and unprecedented it sounds four decades later - this is hands down a glorious piece of pure satanic art, topped by eccentric vocals of Kim Bendix Petersen, especially having in mind rather young age of these performers; hard to believe but this is first standalone CD edition of this masterpiece, coming in hardcover gatefold digisleeve format on black polycarbonate disk, including a replica of the original lyric sheet
