"The mysterious "electro-harmonix like" pedal that Justin uses for overdrive is in fact an Electro-Harmonix LPB-2 or Linear Power Booster. This pedal was made in the mid seventies. It's predecessor the LPB-1 was not even a pedal really, but a little box with just one knob on it (volume). The LPB-2 is similar but is the pedal version with a footswitch and typical seventies E.H. pedal packaging. All the LPB-2 really does is make your amp signal louder (if going completely clean)...or if overdriven a bit, it will just overdrive more with a slight volume boost. You can hear this on the song "Data" how it kicks up in volume near the middle of the song. This is all dependat, of course, on how you set the LPB-2's single volume knob. I own one of these and they're really cool. It's better than any lame, tone draining overdrive or fuzz/dist. pedals there are out there. I saw Unwound twice on their recent tour (once in Philadelphia and once in New York) and Justin carried the LPB-2 and an Electro-Harmonix Small Stone phaser, along with his Maestro Echoplex and Univox BeatBox. However, when I saw them previously Justin did have an MXR Micro Amp with him. This seems completely logical because the MXR Micro Amp is basically MXR's version of the E.H. LPB-2. It also only has one knob....volume."
