Just so much silence surrounding it. The band hasn't said anything in a week. |

They are in a van driving across the country, which they were rehearsing for all week. They don't have a dedicated manager that can promote for them that I know of, and the go to guy has another horse in that race on this tour. Those might be factors. _________________ yup, that's my name. FOR YOUR RATING PLEASURE: 4 LIKE Buttons, 1 NEUTRAL, 1 VEXED, 5 DISLIKE buttons. LC > FB

That may be so but the release date has not changed. They did mention getting the EPs in the mail for the tour.

ll her eps were basically tour only right? So this being a digital release is a step up; but may explain a similar low key promotional effort. I'm sure Smoothie King has been easier to deal with than the music business.  _________________ yup, that's my name. FOR YOUR RATING PLEASURE: 4 LIKE Buttons, 1 NEUTRAL, 1 VEXED, 5 DISLIKE buttons.

Yes, physical EPs are for tour only. Selling them online would be far too difficult and too much trouble for Christie. |

Totally understandable as far as I'm concerned. We think of Eisley as professional musicians who live off their music but Christie & Collin are regular young folks, from a regular family who have to support themselves otherwise. Maybe someday, but for now, they are building a following via word of mouth & playing shows the old fashioned way. _________________ yup, that's my name.

I hope they can sell it on Amazon by some miraculous way. I asked her on twitter, she said there were no plans of putting it up on amazon (yet). Guess, I'll have to travel all the way to the US for a physical copy  Ahh well, in all seriousness, I guess we should be thankful for the digital release. I'm excited to hear it! _________________

Well, this album is amazing so far. I've only listened to 2 songs, but WOW. Sunday Morning takes such a HEAVY influence from late 90s music like Third Eye Blind and it speaks directly to my soul. Probably because that's what was popular when I was in Jr. High/High School. And Rewind is SO GOOD The steel guitar (??) riff near the end is just amazing. |

Wow! Insane! It really is an amazing album. I love it WAY WAY WAY WAY more than Deep Space. Merriment + When We Were Young = Happiness |

Eh I'm not digging it as much as I thought I would
I don't like Christie's voice as much as in her rougher recordings... it sounds harsher |
