Peaches Reveals New LP Details, Tours With NIN

Matthew Solarski reports:
She's invited us into her sordid classroom, she's nursed a serious Electra complex, and now Merrill Nisker, aka Peaches, has served up a double entendre worthy of Shakespeare. Or Playboy, at least.

Impeach My Bush will be the third Peaches long-player, and it's due out July 11 via XL Recordings. As previously reported, dirty P shacked up with everyone and their baby mamas to record this mammer-jammer of a record, including Joan Jett, the Gossip's Beth Ditto, Queens of the Stone Age / Eagles of Death Metal dude Josh Homme, Hole/Mötley Crüe/Eagles of Death Metal drummer Samantha Maloney, and her one-time roommate Leslie Feist. Production duties fell upon Miss Nisker herself, as well as Mickey Petralia (Beck, Ladytron), with some help from Greg Kurstin (of Geggy Tah, oh my).

Track titles include "Fuck Or Kill", "Tent in Your Pants", "Hit It Hard", "Boys Wanna Be Her", "Downtown", "Rock The Shocker", and "Two Guys (For Every Girl)". Choice lyrical excerpt: "I'd rather fuck who I want then kill who I am told to." Preach on, Peaches!

Peaches' sleazier-than-thou live act has garnered considerable attention, enough that Nine Inch Nails have tapped the potty-mouthed lass to open the second leg of their U.S. tour, also featuring Bauhaus, and, for the first leg, TV on the Radio. For these spectacles she'll enlist a touring band that includes Maloney, JD Samson of Le Tigre, and Radio Sloan of The Need. Who knows, they might just give Reznor-ites a run for their money.

It's not all sex and games for Nisker, however. Peaches recently posted a message on her website beseeching friends and fans to support stem cell research, on behalf of her sister who "is wheelchair bound and has [a] very aggressive-progressive form of MS [Multiple Sclerosis]."

"She is my hero and my best friend," says Nisker. "It is so hard to see this happen to her."

Peaches' brother-in-law has started the program "Walk a Mile in My Shoes", asking research-supporters to send him an old pair of shoes and a note to George W. Bush, which he in turn will mail to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Read the entire letter and learn how you can help here.

We already know that she keeps her self-respect in her cervix. It appears she keeps her political leanings in her bush!
