*This review was composed by Becky Kovach and edited by Erik van Rheenen

Evan Weiss is one of the busiest men in music.  At the moment, he’s recording new material for his one-man-band, Into It. Over It., while simultaneously preparing a release with his side project, Pet Symmetry. And on top of all that, he just released a self-titled EP with the grammatically inclined Their/They’re/There. If I didn’t know any better, I might think Weiss was spreading himself a little too thin. But this is the man who wrote, recorded, and produced a song a week for an entire year. In Weiss’ world, quality and quantity don’t have to be mutually exclusive. 

Besides, Weiss isn’t doing all of this alone. The Chicago-based Their/They’re/There also includes Mike Kinsella of American Football and Owen fame, and Matthew Frank of Loose Lips Sink Ships. The three work well together: whereas some collaborations end in a clash of creative ideas, Their/They’re/There manages to balance out the strengths of each individual member. 

The band dives right in with “Their/They’re/Therapy,” a boisterous opening track highlighted by an overlay of Frank’s gritty guitars and a squealing riff at the end. He shows off more of his talent on “Fit Your Life Into A Grid,” but it’s Weiss’ vocals that steal the show on that track. His inflection gives an appropriate edge to lines like “Mother sun is calloused / Unbridled and tenacious fear / Of something without balance / It almost killed me twice that year,” before culminating in a set of truly impressive harmonies. 

Meanwhile, “Concession Speech Writer” takes a different approach, with Weiss providing a prominent and funky bass melody as he croons about a relationship gone sour (“I made amends and got real honest / While you made it up and faked it on us with / some apathy in hand”).
