Mar 14, 2016It’s dynamic and unpredictable while also being Into It. Over It.’s most focused work.
-
Mar 9, 2016Standards is by far the most bombastic album of Into It. Over It.’s career.
-
Kerrang!Apr 27, 2016Standards is a total success. [30 Apr 2016, p.68]
-
Mar 15, 2016Standards is definitely a major step forward, and a fearless one at that.
-
Mar 11, 2016It's a great record filled with emotion, imagination, and passion that's on par with any album labeled "emo," past or present.
-
Mar 9, 2016Weiss long ago found his own voice, and on Standards he finally captures it on tape for the world to see and hear.
-
Mar 9, 2016The songs on this album may well become standards for fans at a certain place in life, but they definitely raise the standards for Into It. Over It.--as well as for anyone who actually still thinks emo needs help being revived.
-
Mar 10, 2016Time will tell if this record is a blueprint for a new way or something significantly less. For now, it remains one of the most compelling genre albums of the early year.
-
Apr 13, 2016Weiss is a smart, heartfelt performer whose stories rarely veer into overwrought territory, though the lukewarm acoustic fluff that occasionally lingers throughout Standards bogs down an otherwise affecting and perceptive listen.

Apr 12, 2016As the band’s tightest, most approachable album, Standards feels like Into It. Over It.’s answer to Transatlanticism, a record that, while not quite a commercial crossover, feels like a trial run for one.

-
Apr 26, 2016Considering the lucid, poignant albums to come to fruition from cabin writing retreats (Bon Iver’s ‘For Emma, Forever Ago’, Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Nebraska’ etc.)--Standards is an album that is almost completely devoid of such clarity and space.
