race to the bottom of the pile

what?Evidence of one of the 500 Paris Hilton CDs that artist Bansky altered the sounds, song titles, images and bar codes of (and then switch-a-roo’ed with real ones in shops – where they sold) has surfaced on this side of the Atlantic via the web. Here’s a Flickr gallery of pictures of the contents (thanks Megan!) Still waiting on audio clips of the changed music, I’ve heard it’s on Soulseek but I can’t find it (if I do I’ll link it here). Hands down, best rejuvenating P.R. stunt for (the initial limp sales of) a debut CD …ever! Banksy’s official site here.

UPDATE: Here’s a rapidshare’d link to the one 40 minute track (ceaseless, banausic) on the CD and here’s also a video (thanks to Rene & everybody else!)
