Hole Class is a side project of Beth of Times New Viking and Rob of Eat Skull. Recorded on a farm in Ohio between '05 and '08, these songs were apparently self-released on cassette at one point, and are now being put out on vinyl via MEDS Records. Couldn't find much more info on this collection of sub-2:00 lo-fi "gothic country" pop songs, but based on the handful of heartfelt tracks I've heard, I think I already like it as much as either members' "real" band:

hole class :: wrong mirror (this mirror's a window)
hole class :: true temper

I've been digging on this record for a couple months now...Academy in Brooklyn is real good about putting notes on things, and it was hard not to grab it when it said TNV/ES collaboration.So I picked it up blind.
The tracks you heard are a good indication that you will really enjoy the whole thing...it does sound even more lo-fi than ES and TNV at first, but I got over that quick.
I ordered this from end of an ear in texas about a month or so ago and i quite enjoy it. i doubt i like it more than either members "real" band (have you heard the new eat skull record?) but it's full of great lo-fi pop gems. Good on you for posting about it.
Wait this is already out? Looks like most of the online retailers are out already, then.
