"We're All Losing It" is a song by American emo band Everyone Asked About You. The song was written during the solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. It was later recorded in the same week at Fellowship Hall Sound in Little Rock, Arkansas. The song is the first single recorded and released by the band in 25 years, as the band originally disbanded in 2000 and did not record new material after 1999.
Background and recording[edit]
Everyone Asked About You disbanded in 2000 after releasing three EPs (with one being a split EP)[1]. While the band did release an album, Let's Be Enemies, in 2012, the album was quietly released and was recorded originally during their original run.[1][2] The band reunited after Ken Shipley, the founder of the Numero Group, contacted the band's drummer, Lee Bufford, in 2019 to reissue the band's material.[1] After the announcement of the band reissuing the material, the band decided to reunite. They played their first show, on December 28th, 2022, their first show in 23 years.[1][3]
On April 8th, 2024, during the solar eclipse, the band wrote the song "We're All Losing It."[2] The band recorded the song at Fellowship Hall Sound the same week and was mixed by record producer Alex Farrar.[2]
Reception[edit]
Daniel Grear of Arkansas Times called the song contained the same "clumsy magic" that made the band's earlier content special. Chris Deville of Stereogum also commented on how the song revived the band's unique sound, citing the "morbidly hilarious" lyrics and a "dynamic twinkly emo" sound.[4]
