Now, Now 'Roommates (Remix)' via RCRD LBL
“Why so glum, Now, Now? Sure, at first your faded emo-ambient-electropop remix of ‘Roomates’ sounds like a spelunker’s lament. But just shy of the three-minute mark, it surges up and out, shooting away from the underworld on crystal synths and hooky thumps. It’s pretty great, actually. So, chin up you guys! We are into it. Seriously. We’re gonna buy your Neighbors Remix EP when...

Into It. Over It. Premiers Song via RCRD LBL
“I get the feeling Evan Thomas Weiss likes themes. In 2009, the Chicago resident released the culmination of his ambitious 52 songs in 52 weeks online recording project, hopping from that straight to Twelve Towns, 12 songs about his experiences in 12 different U.S. locations released on six separate splits.

However, college does have its unexpected benefits, like being a great place for bands to meet and form.

Overall: 94%
