    Thanks for posting this, had never even heard of them before but it's great so far. Checking to see if that tour comes here now.

    Edit: Lol they are coming here to a place I've never heard of and looks like it could maybe fit 50 people/looks scary. Going to go probably though.

    I really like this band and feel like their next album is going to get them a lot of attention.

    Saw them open for Julien Baker, made for an excellent show. Was really impressed with their set.

    Too bad they aren't coming to Dallas with Pinegrove :(

    listening to the 2 songs on the Dowsing split and liking this a lot more than when I heard AOID. Is anyone else hearing an improvement? Am I crazy? FYI, I didn't dislike AOID.

    Just came to post that. What a statement and way to handle a horrific situation. But seriously so terrible.

    Q&A: Ratboys - buzz

    buzz: Can you talk a little more about the title of the album, and what it means?

    JS: AOID doesn’t stand for anything. It’s just kind of a visual memory of a day we had back in summer of 2011 when Dave and I were driving in the middle of nowhere in Kentucky, and we stumbled across this roadside carnival. We decided to go to it, and they stamped our hand with that very strange stamp that’s VOID backwards.
