Elephant Elephant
The ''Elephant Elephant'' EP is the debut release by Evelyn Evelyn. It was first sold to the public on September 13, 2007 and consists of a 3-song 7" single and a 6-track "bonus" CD (as well as a sticker of a conjoined elephant). The vinyl has full fidelity, while the online/streaming and CD versions of the songs have been run through computer filters to create the sound of an old-time radio transcription. However, the song "Elephant Elephant" is the same on in all variations. "Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn?" appears online and as part of "Goodnight Evelyn" on the CD version. All of the other tracks are exclusive to their particular formats. "Love Will Tear Us Apart", "Elephant Elephant" and "Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn?" appear on their self-titled 2010 debut album, and vocals are added to the instrumental tracks "Evelyn Evelyn Theme" and "Sandy's Theme" (retitled as Sandy Fishnets), all of which were re-recorded for the album.

Joy Division
Joy Division were an English rock band formed in Salford in 1976. The group consisted of vocalist Ian Curtis, guitarist/keyboardist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook and drummer Stephen Morris. Sumner and Hook formed the band after attending a June 1976 Sex Pistols concert. While Joy Division's first recordings were heavily influenced by early punk, they soon developed a sparse sound and style that made them one of the pioneers of the post-punk movement. Their self-released 1978 debut EP ''An Ideal for Living'' drew the attention of the Manchester television personality Tony Wilson, who signed them to his independent label Factory Records. Their debut album ''Unknown Pleasures'', recorded with producer Martin Hannett, was released in 1979. Frontman Curtis struggled with personal problems including a failing marriage, depression, and epilepsy. As the band's popularity grew, Curtis's health condition made it increasingly difficult for him to perform; he occasionally experi ...

2007 Debut EPs
7 (seven) is the natural number following 6 and preceding 8. It is the only prime number preceding a cube. As an early prime number in the series of positive integers, the number seven has greatly symbolic associations in religion, mythology, superstition and philosophy. The seven Classical planets resulted in seven being the number of days in a week. It is often considered lucky in Western culture and is often seen as highly symbolic. Unlike Western culture, in Vietnamese culture, the number seven is sometimes considered unlucky. It is the first natural number whose pronunciation contains more than one syllable. Evolution of the Arabic digit In the beginning, Indians wrote 7 more or less in one stroke as a curve that looks like an uppercase vertically inverted. The western Ghubar Arabs' main contribution was to make the longer line diagonal rather than straight, though they showed some tendencies to making the digit more rectilinear. The eastern Arabs developed the digit ...
