Today, New York four-piece cumgirl8 release the EP phantasea pharm, their debut release for 4AD / Remote Control.
Recorded, mixed and mastered entirely from analog tape, phantasea pharm was born out of an obsession with Ella Fitzgerald’s ‘Old McDonald’ ahead of a show in Charlottesville, Virginia. The band decided to pay homage. Vilim dressed up in a cow leotard with pig accessories, Lombardo in a g-string and apron that read ‘The Grillfather,’ Rodrigues became a lawn mower, and Fox took on the role of a sexy rooster. “We went on stage that night and told everyone we were a ‘Fantasy Farm.’”
The result is six tracks of boundaryless music that stretch across the likes of Cocteau Twins, ESG, Suicide, The Slits, B-52s, Madonna. Among those tracks are previously released singles ‘gothgirl1’, ‘cicciolina,’ a tribute to the Hungarian-Italian pornstar turned politician of the same name and accompanied by Emmie America-directed visuals, and ‘cursed angel’, whose video premiered earlier this week via Document Journal.
