[edit] Release Formats
The Evaporators seem to have a penchant for underused formats. Most of their releases have been available on both compact disc and vinyl, as well as 8-track. This is most likely attributed primarily to Nardwuar, whose record label, Nardwuar Records, puts out 8-tracks of all releases.
