It's the cover art for Straight to Hell. The single cover art is preferred whenever possible.

dancarosa said on Monday, 21 December 2009:
the first time i heard this i was half-paying attention and just assumed it was a remix of "straight to hell". also, that's not the cover art for "combat rock".
