Since the release of Stove's debut album "Is Stupider," recorded solo by Steve Hartlett, the band has expanded to include full time members Jordyn Blakely, Alex Molini, and Mike "Boner" Hammond. While working on their upcoming sophomore album, the band sat down to record another songs in Molini’s bedroom studio, further elaborating on their lo-fi fuzz pop music with "Is A Toad In The Rain" and "Is The Meat That Fell Out".

With over fifty new songs written for the band's upcoming sophomore full length, the band were eager to share new material and thus the pair of EPs was born. Stove is an ever evolving and unpredictable project, and "Is The Meat That Fell Out" further blurred any preconceived notion of the band’s direction. Their sophomore album "'s Favorite Friend" will be released in 2018.
