Yup, ordered and received the EP a couple of weeks back and it's pretty stellar. Looking forward to the full length. This band never quite got the widespread respect they deserved.

Re: Versus is back (again)!
I'm happy to see them recording again. Just to get into full #humblebrag mode, I've been pals with them forever and they are the nicest. Always fun to catch up and see them.
Got their EP and looking forward to the LP.

Re: Versus is back (again)!
everytime I saw them in Detroit would contradict this theory but I've only ever seen them in DC /Detroit/NYC which would probably lend to a proper audience for them

I saw them in IL long, long ago and they were well loved.
The new songs sound great.

Flower reissues and new stuff on the way, too.
(They were great in Seattle a couple weeks back. One of those “bands I never thought I’d ever see” but glad I did)

Re: Versus is back (again)!
Right, I have no doubt they were very integral to the NYC and DC scenes. I'd just have liked to seen them on the same awareness level of an Arcade Fire or The Shins. They also knock socks off live. Got to see them play "The Stars are Insane" at the Teenbeat 20th a few years back and they were probably the highlight of the whole thing (maybe just shy of the Unrest reunion). They are a nice bunch of folks too.

I skipped that show to my eternal regret. I was even living in Belltown at the time. I could have walked there.daemon wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 8:40 amAwesome! Got to see them at the Crocodile Cafe with Mark Robinson back in '99-ish.marqueemoon wrote: ↑Thu Aug 01, 2019 7:37 pm!!!

Bedhead played there on their last tour and I stupidly skipped that one too.

Re: Versus is back (again)!
It was amazing, such a great club. There was some sort of cafe attached to it, I believe, where they were sitting just a few feet from me. Had to turn off the fanboy switch and let them eat in peace .marqueemoon wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 8:52 amI skipped that show to my eternal regret. I was even living in Belltown at the time.

I'd love to have seen Bedhead. The New Year at the Touch and Go fest was the closest I got.

Re: Versus is back (again)!
I have most of their records and preordered the new one.
I’ll be at the Seattle show also. It’ll be great to see them live again.
