Background notes
Archive material and source history
Rites of Spring formed in Washington D.C. in 1984 with Guy Picciotto on vocals, Eddie Janney on guitar, Mike Fellows on bass, and Brendan Canty on drums. They put out a self-titled EP in 1985 that included the song 'For Want Of.' The band was done by 1986.
Their music had a raw, emotional intensity that came through in tracks like 'Deeper Than Inside' and 'All There Is.' It wasn't polished, but it connected with people who were looking for something more personal than standard hardcore.
They recorded for Dischord Records, the D.C. label that documented much of that era's scene. The EP's directness and Picciotto's confessional delivery made it stand out, even if the band itself didn't last long.
