Overview Edit

Hellogoodbye is the eponymous debut EP from Hellogoodbye. It was released on August 17 2004 by Drive-Thru Records. All the vocals and instruments were recorded solely by Forrest Kline, except for the lead vocals on track 4, which were performed by Jesse Kurvink.

On March 18 2004, shortly after the band got signed to Drive-Thru, the first five tracks were released digitally, as the second of two free downloadable EPs (the first one being Jenoah's Morning Is When Jenoah Wakes Up) on the label's homepage. The Hellogoodbye EP was downloaded about 300,000 times, while the physical release issued half a year later sold over 80,000 copies to date. With the physical release, which featured the sixth track, the download offer was discontinued.

Call n' return is one of the catchiest songs I've ever heard, and it'll stay stuck in your head forever. bonnie 2k4 is really good too. I hope they leave the "jo…
