"Brutality, Religion and a Dance Beat" is a 7" single compilation of two songs. It contains the songs "Big in Japan", by eponymous band Big in Japan, and "Do the Chud", by The Chuddy Nuddies (later Yachts), both groups formed in the 1970s punk scene of Liverpool. It was released by the Eric's label in November 1977.

The side-A song, "Big in Japan", is an eponymous song of the band Big in Japan. It is a power pop/punk oriented song, in which the singer, Jayne Casey, sings only the song's title, plus a chorus.

The side-B song is "Do the Chud" by The Chuddy Nuddies, which later changed their name to Yachts. The song is synthpop oriented.
