Chicago noise freaks ira glass signed to the Fire Talk imprint Angel Tapes for last year's EP compound turbulence flexing for the heat. That hasn't stopped them from self-releasing demos, but today they're back with news of a new release via Angel Tapes/Fire Talk.
In November, ira glass will release joy is no knocking nation, their latest EP. It's preceded today by the skronking, volatile lead single "fd&c red 40," which is accompanied by the first ira glass music video. Amidst the saxophone blurts, Lise Ivenova screams, 'This place is infested with prefab freakos!" Check it out below.
