history

After JP Anderson's first band, The Shizit, split up in 2001, he founded the Rabbit Junk collaboration with his future wife Jeniffer "Sum Grrl" Bernett. Their first demo, released in 2004, had the same name. A year later they signed a contract with Glitch Mode Recordings . The first official album Reframe followed . The Kandycore Design Company also produced a music video for the piece In Your Head No One Can Hear You Scream .

This was followed by the release of the track Industrial Is Dead for the glitch-mode compilation Hordes of the Elite , and later a cover of Start the Riot for the Atari Teenage Riot tribute compilation The Virus Has Been Spread .

In October 2007, Tom Bake's first two releases were remastered when the band signed with Full Effect Records . On April 28, 2008, through Full Effect, they released the concept album This Life Is Where You Get Fucked , which includes three suites: Ghetto Blasphemer , This Death Is Where You Get Life and The Struggle . JP Anderson later criticized the time with the record label because he said he no longer had control over the band's image and interaction with fans was severely limited.

After the time at Full Effect Records, the band only released a few physical albums, today more in digital form via Bandcamp . Furthermore, they were published on the website of the Glitch Mode Recordings label, where they are under contract again, before other music streaming platforms were added over time .

In September 2008, Rabbit Junk released the singles Power , Blood and Home on their MySpace page .

The second part of Rabbit Junks Ghetto Blasphemer Suite is based on the works of HP Lovecraft and was released in July 2009.

The second part of This Death Is Where You Get Life was completed in 2010 and first published on their label's website.

What Doesn't Kill You Will Make You a Killer and Lucid Summations appeared in 2011, and Bubble , The Boy with the Sun in his Eyes, and Own Up in 2012 . In 2013, Break Shins to This . At the end of August 2014, the EP Pop That Pretty Thirty was released , later also the band's first live EP Live 2014 .

In 2015 the band released the EP's Invasion and Beast . A compilation of this EP together with the track Pop that Pretty Thirty was released as an album in 2016 under the title Consolidate , for the first time since This Life Is Where You Get Fucked also in physical form, which was sold out a short time later. Furthermore, a single compilation was released as Singles from the Lost Years 2011-2013 .

In January 2017, industrial rock band Antonym released their single Liar's World along with a remix of Rabbit Junk. The band also released a new remix EP called Like the Flesh Does the Knife in late May of the same year .

The album Rabbit Junk Will Die: Meditations on Mortality was released in early March 2018 . In 2019 the first albums Rabbit Junk and Reframe were re-released as remastered versions.
