TVOTR-Related Iran to Deliver Dissolver Disc Come February

Monday November 24, 2008
Aaron Altes' rock-n-roll band Iran have pencilled in a release-date for their latest longplayer, Dissolver. The third Iran album will be unleashed by noise label Narnack upon the 3rd of February, 2009. Dissolver was produced by TV on the Radio honcho Dave Sitek, which is hardly surprising, given Iran feature a furry-faced fellow by the name of Kyp Malone.

Where the first two Iran albums were stridently lo-fidelity outings, blasting Altes' sadsack, Lou Barlow-esque songs with transient random-noise bursts, the forthcoming Iran album has been buffed into glossy form by Sitek. As is his wont, the producer builds grand, pop-song arrangements teeming with intricacies and flourishes, as typified by the just-issued single "Buddy." It's a song that, one expects, will take Iran from unheard-of to fawned-over come early-'09.

Dissolver Track List
1. "I Can See the Future"
2. "Buddy
3. "I Already Know You're Wrong"
4. "Airport '79”
5. "Baby Let's Get High One More Time Together"
6. "Digital Clock and Phone"
7. "Where I'm Going"
8. "Cape Canaveral / Buddy (Reprise)"
9. "Can I Feel What"
10. Evil Summer"
