Eisley released The Valley earlier in 2011 via Equal Vision Records, but it featured material that the band had written years ago. Eisley just recently finished up recording a brand new EP that is still untitled that will be released sometime on Equal Vision in the future. The band will also begin working on their next full-length at some point this year to get a jump on the process.

What does the EP sound like?
Sherri DuPree-Bemis: [It’s been a few years] since we did The Valley, even though it just came out technically not too long ago. [But] it’s too soon to put a full-length record [out], [so] we decided it’d be cool just to do an EP, with maybe just some B-sides from the Valley sessions with some new songs as well. It was just something fun to do to kind of kill time until the next record.

It was kind of a last-minute idea, and no one really had their heads in the game, so to speak, regarding the sound or the direction. It was cooler that way, because it came together as this unique project that has its own vibe. We ended up only using one B-side that had been recorded when we did The Valley, and the rest of it we recorded all new. It’s very musical—and by musical I mean it’s less poppy. It kind of just breathes and you can tell no one’s thinking about it too hard; [it] has this really cool, natural vibe going on.
