Earth Crisis will be releasing a new four song 7" vinyl and CD, 'The Discipline,' on May 19 via Bullet Tooth.

The EP will have two newly recorded songs from the band's pioneering debut album, 'Destroy the Machines,' and two unreleased songs die-hard fans may recognize from unreleased demos from the '90s.

Founding member, guitarist and songwriter Scott Crouse, said, "We think the songs on 'Destroy the Machines' are still strong, and relevant two decades later. We have always wanted to re-record them, and figured the 20 year anniversary of the album was a fitting occasion. Our intention isn't to erase the original versions, just offer another version we feel will offer the power and clarity the songs deserve.  We also decided to record two songs we demoed years ago because they're great and people need to hear them! 'Behind the Mask' and 'Time of Strife' are timeless and we think ExC fans will love them."

The band has also announced a few tour dates. See them below.

Kerplunk!!! We landed in Dublin! At first I thought this was how all the thrones in Europe were going to look...but then, after I finished swimming in the black lagoon, I realized I was a jerk and accidentally used a handicapped turd hole. But fuck it, after 24 hours of traveling my bung pipes were in dire need of this kind of singing!!

So many toys for a man to play with here..where do I even start?!? Of course with the foot sink! Or at least that's what I used it for! Why the fuck else would a sink be at that height and proximity of a toilet if it wasn't there for you to wash your toe jam clean while you unclogged the brethren hole!

That little red ring...that's the ULTIMATE "oh shit" device! I fucked up and pulled it thinking it was a flusher (flushers are on the walls here btw) and then an alarm went off and some small child -ooking man came rushing to the door to make sure my guts weren't pouring into the bowl below me.

So much TP and cleaning supplies!! My eyes were watering! USA you've got some knowledge to dig here...you're fucking it up!

Off to a good start here in Europe!
