billya Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I just listened to this band for the first time because they are opening for TITR on Saturday and doing an acoustic instore with them too. It's actually pretty good! Haha! Is this their best? Also someone sell me a black. And what kind of merch do they have on tour? This is his first real cohesive record, so it is the best release, but not necessarily the best songs. Glad to see another person turned on to him.

pushbacktosquare Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 It's my favorite release. You might want to also check out the Koji split as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serum7 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 And check out Stay Ahead of the Weather. Personally my favorite batch of Evan's songs, followed by the Koji split. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvphotoandvideo Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 When you really get into him, bite down on the 52 Weeks set from No Sleep. That thing is beautiful. AdventureIsOutThere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually pretty good! Haha! Is this their best? Jealous that you get to see them/him with TITR, should be an awesome show. But as other people said this is probably the best written/produced full length of his. But I have listened to the Koji Split so many times and was the first material I heard from him. But 52 is such an amazing record and the concept of the record is blows my mind. So buy all of this stuff. He probably will have proper, 52 weeks, and the Stay A head of the Weather 7".

blanchardoswald Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Ordered Proper from No Sleep the other day. I just discovered this too. It's seriously good shit. billya and isavedlatin54 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's up to him nothing will ever be re-pressed (IIOI/Koji, 12 Towns & SAOTW aside), especially 52 Weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how I feel about that. I get his point, but that's gonna drive up the secondary market which sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emo Revival Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 What's his reasoning? I'd guess that he wants to focus on new stuff and not keep rehashing the old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 He said once he doesn't like represses since they devalue his originals. The man has thousands of records in his collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subplotofcrows Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Over the past few months I've seen many tweets from Evan, so I think IIOI/Koji is officially out of print (and he doesn't have any more copies), Proper is getting low and on it's only press, and 12 Towns is out of print as well. So if you want them, better grab them before they're hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a risky move, I'm trusting you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulch Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 http://www.discogs.com/seller/intoitoverit Evan posted on Twitter a few days ago and said this isn't his account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhi Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I thought he said IT IS his discogs account and he was asking if people think he should sell some of his IIOI vinyl leftovers on there. I said heck yea cuz I'd buy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmoney Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 He was awesome and a super nice guy. He mentioned to me he knows all about all of us crazy VC people. He only had Proper on clear, which I bought. He mentioned it will be repressed, but 52 weeks will not be. He will be recording a new album this year. Sooner than later. May or not be on No Sleep.

gmoney Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Oh btw, he played a new song, midnight Caroll street, embracing facts, and Augusta. Maybe one more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBech Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 This reminded me to order it. Was meaning for so long to order this and the Koji split. Probably since the fall. The split is no longer available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you want them, better grab them before they're hard to find. I saw Koji about 3 weeks ago on the acoustic basement tour. And that night he said he sold his last copy of the 2nd pressing of the split. That record will be a hot commodity as IIOI and Koji get bigger.

EmoVeganBoy Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Just FYI, in a response to an ask on Tumblr No Sleep said they are repressing the IIOI/Koji split and Proper. So those may surface in the next couple of months. Here's a list of everything that is being repressed by No Sleep right now: - Only Boundaries- IIOI/KOJI- Never Come Undone- Separation- Suburbia- Proper- Drug Church- Adventures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
