    Released: July 9, 2024

MP3 Player 1 is a cover extended play (EP) by American indie pop band Water from Your Eyes, released on July 12, 2024 through Matador Records. Consisting of four tracks and a duration of around fourteen minutes, it was entirely produced by Nate Amos. The EP was co-written by Amos and Brown after the release of their sixth album, Everyone's Crushed (2023).

The single "The Good Ship Lifestyle," a cover of Chumbawamba's song of the same name preceded MP3 Player 1 on July 9, 2024, three days before the EP was released.

Background and recording

MP3 Player 1 was recorded around the same time as Everyone's Crushed (2023),[1][2] according to Nate Amos and Rachel Brown, and acts the follow up to their earlier EP Somebody Else's Song (2019).[2] Consisting of four tracks that are covers of songs by Chumbawamba, Adele, Al Green and Third Eye Blind,[3][4] it has a runtime of around fourteen minutes.

Critical reception

David Renshaw of The Fader would write that the EP is "playful" and "free like a good time at the karaoke bar".[3] Renshaw would feel that the album "maintains both the stoner humor and disorientingly addictive take on DIY indie rock that made Everyone’s Crushed a breakout album". Caroline Nieto of Post-Trash said the album "portrays an erratic picture of the band's identity when they're not the writers, instead putting their style on display."[5]
