Telefon Tel Aviv is back with their contribution to the Immediate Action RED
series. The EP features two tracks from TTA, including their
first vocal composition, "Sound in a Dark Room," a slow, sultry burner
featuring vocalist Lindsay Anderson. The EP also includes a track from the
original demo TTA sent to Hefty, as well as two remixes from "Fahrenheit
Fair Enough" by Slicker and Prefuse 73. Lots of soul here! IA #8 is
available on both vinyl and CD formats. The vinyl format is a one time
pressing of 2000. Each copy is presented in a hand-printed, silk screened
sleeve. Keeping things in the Hefty family, the artwork was provided by
Broken Wrist Project member, Kevin Christy. Available for pre-order
now at
