Foot Village is getting ready to roll out a new 7″ on How To Fight Records in late October. The drum ‘n’ shout band have designed the Lovers With Iraqis/Totally Tween 7″ as “a guidebook for the forthcoming apocalypse,” with a song of hope and a song of doom. Here is the song of hope. The message is simple: “the most important thing to remember is that life should be about having fun and sharing love with all those around you.” Listen.

Downloadable: Lovers With Iraqis (mp3)

Oh, and the vinyl comes with digital download, plus a download of remixes from Bobb Bruno of Best Coast, Yip-Yip, and Universal Studios Florida (the 7″ + the remixes = the Lovers With Iraqis EP). You can stream most of the tracks using the bandcamp widget below.

The 7″ art is printed on temporary tattoo paper with two copies included (one for pristine preservation, the other for cutting up). The tattoos look like this.

You can preorder the Lovers With Iraqis/Totally Tween 7″ over @ the How To Fight Bandcamp.

You can also buy the Lovers With Iraqis EP right now @ the How To Fight Bandcamp.
