According to MTV's Headbanger's Blog, DIRTY LITTLE RABBITS, the band featuring SLIPKNOT percussionist M. Shawn "Clown" Crahan, has inked a deal with The End Records. "I've waited my whole life to meet a label like The End, and it seems like, artistically, the people involved in that are almost identical to my mind, and that's why we're able to do this pretty easily because it's really been developed around the art," Crahan said. "It's not about the music business. When we started out, we didn't have any expectations or care what people were gonna try and do or if they understood it. There was just no will to even be a part of this industry. Then next thing you know, two years later, here I am."

DIRTY LITTLE RABBITS is tentatively planning on releasing a new EP in January and a full-length in April. The EP was recorded at Sound Farm Studios, which is the same place SLIPKNOT recorded its latest CD, "All Hope is Gone".

DIRTY LITTLE RABBITS has thus far released a three-song EP, "Breeding", which was supported by a 27-date U.S. tour with STONE SOUR that took the group from Fargo, North Dakota, up to New England, and down the East Coast to the southern reaches of Florida.
