I.U.D. is a very powerful power duo consisting of Lizzi Bougatsos from Gang Gang Dance and Sadie Laska, the newest member of Growing. Together they bang the drums, vocalize into microphones, and make a raging, echoey, industrial, apocalyptic racket. It’s got shades of Einstürzende Neubauten, Crash Worship, Boredoms, Pigface, Suckdog, and other classic bands that you hoped would scare your parents when you listened to them. We asked Richard Kern to shoot Lizzi and Sadie in the style of his classic New York Girls–era photography because those photos also freaked out said parents. I.U.D.’s new album is called The Proper Sex and it’s out now on the Social Registry.

i think it’s because lizzi has a girl look to her but this is naughtier than it would be otherwise. mayby just knowing kern was behind the lens is part of it too. | | Anonymous, on Apr 1, 2009 wrote:

i like the dekkers bra. it’s already a bra, why not show a little nipple? sheer makes for good nipples shadows too and everyone agrees nipple shadows are hot. | | Anonymous, on Apr 1, 2009 wrote:
the gag is opening her jaw so much it’s stretching the rest of her face down. that’s not good for the skin! or the jaw! | | Anonymous, on Apr 1, 2009 wrote:
That’s only a five-o-clock pit shadow. It’s cool, nothing to worry about. I thought you meant there was serious hair, I can deal with stubble. | | Anonymous, on Apr 1, 2009 wrote:
if you know you have a photoshoot, you should definitely think about shaving your armpit beforehand. just a suggestion. | |
