Rites of Spring was an American post-hardcore band from Washington, D.C. Although they were only together from the spring of 1984 through the winter of 1986, they helped define the revolution summer sound along with Dag Nasty and Embrace, among others. Following the band's dissolution, singer and guitarist Guy Picciotto, guitarist Eddie Janney, and drummer Brendan Canty formed One Last Wish with Embrace alumnus Michael Hampton.
