Cover is a blow up of a panel from the RAPEMAN manga, with the Rapeman laying on the bed and some kana-script.
Review from Empire Monthly:
They told us this existed -- the little lion hunter's theme song rearranged for a jazz trio, now renamed to irritate whatever concerned activist group wants to take the bait this time. It plays to all of Rapeman's strengths: the way each instrument is allowed a separate and distinct voice, the simple but not moronic dynamics, music for musc's sake. "Song Number One" if it is in fact their first, plays to a first song weakness -- the need for Albini to hear dead silence in one of his band's songs for the first time ever. So we get dead silence every three seconds. It's a sped-up Budd Jr., albeit with some deafeningly fat production that also adds to Inki's awesomeness. Evidence, if Two Nuns wasn't enough -- an album that in my book is superior to Songs About Fucking -- that Rapeman had every intention of living up to the expectations and the hype.

No info given, but since the etchings say "BLOW-400-A" and "BLOW-400-B", we can make an educated guess that that's the company name and cat. #.. Cover has what looks like the Rapeman dragging a "blond superhero" by the hair.

No company info. to my knowledge, but basically this is a bootleg CD of a bunch of Sub-Pop Singles Club 7"s. The Rapeman one is on this.
