Blood Brothers to release single/EP

The Blood Brothers have announced plans to release a new EP. Titled Love Rhymes With Hideous Car Wreck, the disc is due out May 23rd, 2006 and will include an exclusive live version of the title track recorded at the band's Reading Festival performance last summer. It will also feature an alternate version of "Crimes" and a remix of the Crimes track "Peacock Skeleton With Crooked Feathers," featuring additional vocals by Sean Reveron from A Gun Called Tension. Additionally, the EP will include the two UK b-sides from the "Love Rhymes With Hideous Car Wreck" single as well as the band's remix of the seminal Gang of Four track "Anthrax."

As reported earlier, the band recently entered the studio with producer Guy Picciotto, co-vocalist of legendary Washington D.C. band Fugazi, and producer of recent albums from The Gossip and Blonde Redhead. Sharing the production duties with Guy will be John Goodmanson, a veteran producer responsible for records from a diverse range of acts from Death Cab for Cutie to Sleater-Kinney. Goodmanson also co-produced Crimes along with the band themselves.

Their upcoming release follows 2004's Crimes.
