The Hunchback (EP)

The EP's title track, "The Hunchback", subsequently appeared on Vile's third studio album, Childish Prodigy (2009), with Vile noting: "The one on the EP is a jammier version, and it's more what ended up being the live version - it all shows that music is ever-changing.

"[1] The track, "Losing It", reappears on Vile's 2010 EP, Square Shells, in a different state.

After its initial limited run, the EP was subsequently re-released with six live bonus tracks, recorded at the Earl, in Atlanta, on August 7, 2011.

A concert Pitchfork described as "the final show featuring the classic lineup of the Violators.

Full-on electric & an essential piece of the puzzle [...] Fans of Kurt Vile’s previous work cried into their pillows and accused him of selling out the bedroom rock scene, while the initiated few knew he’d been doing it for years… plugging in with a full-on rock band called The Violators and gigging in all corners of Philly.
