Actress has taken the next shock-and-awe step in erasing his obituary from listeners’ memory, following up the divisive but still much-loved Ghettoville triple LP (and almost certainly a Trilogy Tapes 12-inch under a different moniker) with a surprise 12-inch EP, Xoul, out in just a few days. And it’s a beauty — look at that thing up there, black and featureless as the night, with a barcode sticker whiter than God’s eyelids. Much like the surprise Grey Over Blue 12-inch from last year, this EP is limited to 500 copies and comes on 180 gram vinyl. No word yet on whether this plays at 45 or 33 RPM, though that tends to be a bit subjective.
Here’s a link to get it from Ninja Tune. Here’s a link to get it from Bleep. Here’s a link to get it from Phonica. Here’s a link to get it from Boomkat. Whichever link you choose, we’ll use that data to optimize your experience on future Actress stories.
