Rumors Laid Waste is an EP by The Blood Brothers, which was issued on February 2003 through Luckyhorse Industries, with a 10" vinyl edition issued by Sound Virus. The release acts as a compilation of early recordings made by the band recorded between 1998 and 1999.[3] The release shows off the band's early hardcore punk-influenced sound, being rather simplistic compared to their later releases. The release also features the only recordings that feature founding guitarist Devin Welch, who would eventually be replaced by mainstay guitarist Cody Votolato
Two pressings: 260 clear copies issued as two single-sided discs, and one single-disc pressing issued on black. The later's pressing information is unknown
