The Threeep is a three-part EP (hence the title) consisting of three singles from the album The Dark Leaves, by Matt Pond PA. Each single consists of three songs; a single from the album and two b-sides, one instrumental and one not. Several of Matt Pond's core bandmembers contributed to these sessions, including Chris Hansen (engineering, co-producing, guitar), Eve Miller (cello), Christian Frederickson (viola) and Dan Crowell (drums).[1] Initially announced in 2009,[2] each single was meant to be released on limited edition vinyl by Altitude Records, the design allowing for the three sleeves to clip together to form a cube, but to date only the first installment was ever pressed with an unspecified number on black vinyl, and 250 on colored vinyl.[3] The first installment was also released on iTunes, but is no longer available, the second installment was digitally released on iTunes[4] and Amazon MP3,[5] and on September 18, 2013, the entire EP was eventually released as a free digital download via NoiseTrade[6] and announced on Filter Magazine's website.[7]
