• 29th May 2009

Somehow, Innerpartysystem managed to get their hands on one of the vinyls which were inserted into random packages for the ‘Check Your Head’ reissue that was released recently. The tracklisting for this strictly limited vinyl was. The Innerpartysystem remix is of an a capella titled BBoys in the Cut.

IPS just released their Heart of Fire EP in the UK and have recently returned to their native US after a series of packed-out headline shows plus stunning performances at Camden Crawl and Give It A Name. The four members of innerpartysystem hail from the small towns that surround Reading, Pennsylvania. The rural, stark nature of the landscape has certainly had an effect on the band’s sound which incorporates throbbing electronic beats with the aesthetic of a rock band whom, like Nine Inch Nails, Pendulum and Prodigy, aren’t afraid to mix styles and mess with the formula. Innerpartysystem worked with a stellar line-up of producers and engineers on their self-titled debut album, released last year – Stuart Price (Madonna, Missy Elliott, The Killers, Gwen Stefani), Alan Moulder (Depeche Mode, Smashing Pumpkins, My Bloody Valentine) and Mark 'Spike' Stent (Marilyn Manson, Linkin Park, Goldfrapp).
