Speedy Ortiz’s “Puffer” gets the remix treatment from Open Mike Eagle. The track is streaming now via Kick Kick Snare: “Steeped in dark, thematic aesthetics, the original production is newly coated with indulgent, vocal snippets and a shiny synth veneer.”

Speedy’s new EP Foiled Again is out this Friday. Digital copies of the record are available in the Carpark shop and iTunes.

The band is currently on tour with The Good Life. Find the full list of the dates and tickets here.

# – w/ The Good Life

Speedy Ortiz premiered “Emma O”, the third track from their recently announced Foiled Again EP, with Zane Lowe’s World First Exclusive on Apple Music today.

“’Emma O’ is the name of the Japanese Buddhist overlord of hell who judges souls” says frontwoman Sadie Dupuis. “It’s about spending uncomfortable, quiet hours with someone you still love but shouldn’t. I wrote it at a farmhouse in upstate
New York years ago.”

Foiled Again is a digital-only release. Pre-order a copy of the EP today via Carpark Records and iTunes. The first two singles “Death Note” and “Puffer feat. Lizzo (Lazerbeak Remix)” are also streaming now.

The band heads out on the second leg of their North American tour next week with The Good Life.

# = w/ The Good Life

Speedy Ortiz shared the second single from their forthcoming EP Foiled Again. The track is the first of two remixes of their previously released “Puffer” which features Lizzo & Doomtree’s Lazerbeak. Stream it now via Earmilk.

Sadie Dupuis on the track: “I was really into the album Lizzobangers, so we hit up Lizzo and Lazerbeak about collaborating in some way, even though we hadn’t met IRL. After this remix was in the works, Speedy toured with Doomtree (who taught Mike [Speedy’s drummer] how to shotgun a beer), and Lizzo and I wrote and recorded the song ‘Basement Queens’ together in December. So in a way this remix was the catalyst for that tour as well as the song.”

Foiled Again is out June 3rd. Pre-orders are available now in the Carpark shop and iTunes.
