An expansion of the sound pioneered on the Mosquito Control EP, the Red Sea EP offers a slight evolution toward the direction Isis would begin to take with their first full length, Celestial. The three songs which make up this EP are tied together with spoken word samples from the short-lived television series Hotel Room (specifically, the third episode, entitled "Blackout" http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/2093/hotel3.html). The song "Ochre" contains a sample from the film Dead Manhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112817/ by Jim Jarmusch, and is a reading of a portion of William Blake's poem "Auguries of Innocence."
