Here we go with some big Eternal Summers news. Remember when you first discovered “Fall Straight Back” on Gorilla vs Bear, or “Lightswitch” via Pitchfork? Or did you miss out on the super limited edition first EP 10″ pressing altogether? Well, now is your chance to correct the situation. Eternal Summers collected their first EP, for the A side, and coupled it with 7 inch singles, some excellent cover songs, and a b side for the, you guessed it, B side. We are pressing it to colored vinyl and putting it out just in time for Record Store Day, April 21. Oh, and it is called, what else?, The Dawn of Eternal Summers.

Check out some new cool ads from Etnies as they use two of our bands songs; Pepper Rabbit “Murder Room” and Eternal Summers “Disciplinarian”
Starting off 2012, with some sad but true news, Pepper Rabbit call it quits. Click here to read a note from Xander and one from Luc. Their music will live on in Beauregard and Red Velvet Snow Ball – their two excellent full length releases. We wish Xander and Luc best of luck in their future musical and other endeavors.
Onward for everyone else. We are really looking forward to 2012. Kicking off the New Year, Surfer Blood will be on Jimmy Fallon Monday night. In the coming days and weeks, we’ll have new singles from Zambri, new videos from Royal Baths and announcements about new albums from Young Prisms and Eternal Summers!

Praise for Kanine bands CMJ appearances
Royal Baths
“the stinging guitars and sonic freakouts were more than enough to keep the sold out audience fully engaged, serving as an excellent introduction for Crocodiles.” Exploding In Sound
“Royal Baths hyped the energy with their multi-layered screeching guitar rips and liquidating phased vocals, building a brooding wave of ear-candy distortion………Royal Baths are a change of taste in the New York horizon.” Modern Mystery Blog

Eternal Summers
“they played with a completeness that really allowed them to rock…..The most notable striking aspect of their performance lied within the new material they debuted” Washington Square News
Zambri
“Zambri, with two harmonizing female singers, pushed toward eerier, electronic realms” NY Times
“Zambri brought gothy, witchy vibes to Wednesday’s show at Santos Party House with their custom-made stage gear, including four microphones stuck together with duct tape.” Spin
