Asked about rumors of a larger side project with Spiegel, Karen gave the polite but curt reply: "No details at the present moment." One collaboration she's not tightlipped about, however, is her recent pairing with former Ultramagnetic MC Kool Keith. The pair hooked up in March to record "The Tease" for an upcoming release called Deep Throat vs. Lialeh. The project features a Seattle supergroup of artists who call themselves the Peepers staging a sort of musical rivalry between the 1974 porn classic "Deep Throat" and the first major black porn movie, "Lialeh," released the same year. In addition to Keith and Karen, the album will feature guest appearances by Danger Mouse, Gruff Rhys from Super Furry Animals and others to be announced. An EP version of the effort is due in September on Light in the Attic Records, and a full-length is slated to follow early next year
