Hallelujah the Hills are alive with the sound of an EP to follow on the heels of their debut album, last year's Collective Psychosis Begone. Titled Prepare to Qualify, the EP features five tracks previously available online and two that have never seen any kind of release before.

On April 8, the band will make Prepare to Qualify available for free download from its website; you can also purchase the record at shows and via Hallelujah's new label, Misra.

The Hills only have two live dates scheduled for the moment. They'll spend the rest of their time crafting their second full-length, which they are planning to release on Misra early next year.

Prepare to Qualify:

01 Nurses 5 Float Past
02 Don't Take the Law Into Your Own Hands but Take Mine in Yours
03 Let It Wave
04 Cataloging Candy's Demise
05 When Night Falls
06 Monster Eyes
07 (You Better Hope You) Die Before Me [Live, January 2008]
