}} As It Is (often stylised as ΛS IT IS or Λ\\\\) is a British-American rock band based in Brighton, England. The band was formed in 2012, and signed to Fearless Records on 2 October 2014.[3] The group consists of lead vocalist Patty Walters, rhythm guitarist and vocalist Benjamin Langford-Biss, lead guitarist Ronnie Ish, bassist Alistair Testo, and drummer Patrick Foley. The band has released four EPs and three albums, titled Never Happy, Ever After, which was released by Fearless Records on 20 April 2015 in Europe and on 21 April 2015 in the US.[4] okay., which was released on 20 January 2017[5] and The Great Depression, released 10 August 2018. HistoryFormation, debut album, okay., The Great Depression (2012–present)As It Is was started in spring 2012[6] by Minnesota-born Patty Walters, who posted an advertisement stating that he was looking for musicians to be in a pop-punk band using the online service Join My Band.[7] Andy Westhead and Patrick Foley replied to the advertisement and were accepted into the band[8] along with Benjamin Langford-Biss who Walters knew from university. The band's name comes from a lyric in a song by the American straight edge hardcore band Have Heart. Walters began his own career by posting videos on his YouTube channel of songs he covered. After the band's formation, instead of just a solo cover, the band as a whole worked on a cover of Fat Lip by Sum 41. As the band's career started to gain more traction, he posted less often until he finally announced in the video titled "A New Chapter." that he would go on an undetermined hiatus for the channel and would be focusing his efforts on As It Is. The band played local shows for the first couple of years before their first few tours shortly after releasing their fourth EP This Mind of Mine, touring the UK and Europe. The band received a large response from these tours and signed to Fearless Records in October 2014, becoming the first UK band to sign to the label.[9] The band members began working on the group's debut full-length album in 2014 in Florida with producer James Paul Wisner.[10] The band's debut full-length, Never Happy, Ever After was released on 20 April 2015 in Europe and the following in the United States under Fearless Records.[11][12] Three singles were released from the album, "Dial Tones",[13] "Concrete"[12] and "Cheap Shots & Setbacks".[14] The band performed at every date on the 2015 edition of Warped Tour.[15] The band performed at the 2015 Reading and Leeds Festivals Festivals in the United Kingdom.[16][17] Their second album, okay. was released on 20 January 2017. In October 2017 Westhead departed from the band due to "feelings and differences [that] had been building up".[18] The band recorded their third record in Texas in January 2018 and started teasing new music in May with cryptic messages on their social media accounts. They released their third record, "The Great Depression" on 10 August 2018, which included the singles "The Wounded World," "The Stigma (Boys Don't Cry)," and "The Reaper." They were approached by Hopeless Records to be a part of the labels new annual compilation series of albums entitled "Songs That Saved My Life" a compilation in which bands cover a song that had a significant impact on them as a whole or individually. The song that As It Is chose was Such Great Heights which was originally made famous by the indie rock band The Postal Service the album was released on November 9, 2018. Lead singer Patty Walters was also interviewed by Hopeless as a part of a campaign to get kids and teens to seek out help if they are going thru struggles of their own which was what the overall message of the album is. At their show at the 02 Forum Kentish Town in London on 1 December 2018, the unofficial world record for the most crowd surfers during an hour-long set. Over 300 people crowd surfed during the band's set, and over 600 crowd surfed across the sets of all four bands on the bill. [19] Style and influencesAs It Is has been described as a pop punk band with a "melodic, earnest, emo-inspired" sound, compared to the early material of Taking Back Sunday and The Starting Line.[20] The Wonder Years has been listed as a big influence.[21] Never Happy, Ever After has been described as emo[22] and pop punk.[22][23] The Great Depression has been described as emo, pop punk, and post-hardcore.
