It would be so hard to pick a favorite, although for me it's probably Spill. There literally isn't a track on here that isn't incredible in its own way. Probably deserves a 5 and may get one from me soon.

Best is easily "The Clouds," incredible ending. Still doesn't touch "A Year In The Garden Shed" but not really fair to compare

Spill is such a jam

why didn't they just write like one more song and call it a full-length honestly? people care more about LPs than EPs, this could've gotten more attention

Always agreed, butt. I basically regard it as an LP anyway, but it might have helped with the band's initial levels of exposure.

Will still never forget hearing Spill on Youtube in 2009 and losing my shit thinking it was a legit Daisy demo. Funny how this band kind of ended up being as good or better anyway.

The Demo of The Clouds off of In the House of Dust is so much better than the album version here.



I am finally getting back to listening to this in full. It still holds up so well.

While I think they're both strong vocalists on their own merits, with Mason being the better one to anchor a band full-time, I do miss the blend that used to come from him and Gregg Andrew DellaRocca. His unique twang is something that elevated the early EPs with that extra vocal dimension. Of course, I'm very grateful that Billy Dupree is still in the band too; definitely the guy I converse with the most and his screams are absolutely integral and a key in differentiating this act from Tigers on Trains (speaking of which, more Christian Van Deurs would always be a good thing in either act -- so much crazy good talent associated with this band lmao).
