Into It. Over It. "No EQ" track Review
Evan Weiss' Into It. Over It. just released the first track off his forthcoming record, Standards, titled "No EQ."
Evan and his band-mate Joshua David Sparks wrote the record over the course of a month in an isolated cabin in northern Vermont.
There is something about Weiss' voice that I can't get enough of. It's warm, full, heartfelt, and so damn good. I saw Pet Symmetry in the.. spring? fall? whenever they came through Boston, and not only can the dude kill it live, he seems like one of the most genuine dudes. I remember buying the record, tape, and a shirt and shaking the man's hand and him seeming so genuinely stoked that people dig his shit. Yeah, I'm fan-boying a bit. Eat it!
So the song: Starting off with these rad mathy drums and muffled notes it's already warm, which is a contrast to the frigid Vermont cabin the songs were written in. The great thing about this song is how the instrumentation is one concise unit. You hear everything! It's not like piece put together with the title of "song" on it. It really is a whole unit. Everything is so nice. It's so full too. There are so many layers which is beautiful.
Production is so good too. This thing was recorded by John Vanderslice at Tiny Telephone Studio, which is all analog. Damn. I love it! Into it... not over it. Totally into it.
Into It. Over It. will be hitting the road with The World Is A Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid To Die, The Sidekicks, and Pinegrove in the spring.
The record is out via Triple Crown Records March 11.
Stream the track over at Noisey.
