Water from Your Eyes released their debut studio album, It's a Beautiful Place (2025), to critical acclaim.[1][2] The EP was surprise-released on December 3, 2025 through Matador during the European leg for the band's It's a Beautiful Place Tour. It's Beautiful features the reworks of 3 tracks from the band's previous successful album It's a Beautiful Place (2025), “Born 2,” “Nights in Armor,” and “Playing Classics”.[3] Amos would state: “The new versions of ‘Born 2’ and ‘Nights in Armor’ are actually just closer to how the songs existed in their original form”.[4] Further going into detail, “People were asking me about the original 10+ minute version of playing classics and I can’t find it anymore, so I made a new one. Thought it would be funny if it was faster, too. I added car sound effects because cars are fast.”[4]
