This process resulted in two releases: the CD EP All-Time Quarterback! (which included a cover of The Magnetic Fields' Why I Cry), and the "straight to Walkmen" cassette release The Envelope Sessions (which included Underwater, which was later rerecorded by Death Cab For Cutie for a 7" single on Sub Pop).
