Into It. Over It. streaming 'Standards,' playing FREE BrooklynVegan SXSW show

Into It Over It

Into It. Over It. will release their third official album Standards this week (3/11) via Triple Crown, and they’re now streaming the whole thing. Like its predecessor, 2013’s Intersections, Standards kind of sounds like the halfway point between Owen and Death Cab for Cutie (main member Evan Weiss is also in a band with Owen’s Mike Kinsella), but it’s also a clear step above their previous material. It’s got the best production an IIOI album has had yet (courtesy of John Vanderslice), and Josh Sparks’ expert drumming is no small part of what makes this album great. Listen to a stream of the whole thing below, via Entertainment Weekly.

As previously mentioned, Into It. Over It. are going on a tour with TWIABP, The Sidekicks and Pinegrove. That hits NYC on 4/22 at Irving Plaza (tickets).

Before that tour begins, IIOI will be at SXSW and their stay includes the FREE BrooklynVegan SXSW day party at Cheer Up Charlies on Saturday, March 19 (noon – 6pm). That’s one of three parties we’re throwing at the venue and many more acts and set times will be announced very soon. RSVP is open now.

We just also just anncounced Citizen, Turnover and Sorority Noise for our Thursday party.
