Relapse Records has signed Rabbits. The band "meets somewhere in the crossroads of punk, sludge, and metal" and features ex-members of Angel Hair, The VSS, Pleasure Forever, and Lion Fever. The band recently wrapped up recording on their Relapse debut and a release date is expected soon. The band noted:
We are putting the final grimy touches on our new record, ten unhinged punk-sludge-thrash nature-crushes-man anthems. We are thrilled that our first long-player will be unleashed by the mighty Relapse--our new, seemingly fearless label--so that we may forever damage the ears and psyches of people all over the world, just as we have done for the last six years to basement dwellers and bar flies all over Portland. We will not stop until we reach the very bottom.
