Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: UNDER GLASS = this enigma of a band plays sick emo-violence in the Jeromes Dream/Senza style with lots of chunk. Super sick. At least 3 EPs out already!

2022 - 02 - 15 /// Atameo out, split tape is next, Anna Sage coming!

February 15, 2022 by David Norman

Atameo’s debut 12” released yesterday and we sold about 75% of our copies so there’s no way this thing is still around come summer/ZBR Fest so pick one up asap if interested. Next level emo-violence from Israel influenced by Senza, Loma Prieta, and Sleeper Wave.

Our next release will be the Apostles Of Eris + Encarsia split cassette /100. This releases on February 24th at 9am PST and features three new songs from each band. Incredible art by Joshua Criss.

Today we officially announce our involvement with France’s Anna Sage and their new self titled full length that releases April 15th. We will have 50 copies of the 12” and we are the only label that made tapes, also /50.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: GILDED AGE = This Portland band just released a fucking phenomenal four-track EP on Tomb Tree. Fans of Supine, City Of Caterpillar, Dim, etc. take note! Physicals coming in late March/April.

2022 - 02 - 10 /// 2nd wave of ZBR Fest 2022

February 10, 2022 by David Norman

Wut. We are still flabbergasted at this lineup, also. We know your feels. And there are still 7 more to announce. 2-Day Passes now available via Kickstand Productions (linked here)

Here’s a final reminder/massive tease for tomorrow’s giant/final hand-painted swirl dip sale #3. Maybe…sit down. This isn’t even all of them.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: GIL CERRONE = This Australian screamo band is very, very good and their 2018 debut EP should be followed up this year.

2022 - 02 - 09 /// Sepulcher out...again! / Last day for ZBR Fest early bird special

February 09, 2022 by David Norman

The Infant Island tapes were just released, and if history is any indicator these will definitely sell out. 110 glitter tapes with etching, in a clear/clear case that is also etched, AND an o-card. Oh baby. You can link to both stores via our bandcamp page (linked here)

Today is the last day for early bird tickets for Day 1 and Day 2 of ZBR Fest at $35. As of yesterday there were single digits remaining. The price jumps to $40 on Thursday when we reveal another wave of bands and you poo your pants, so maybe jump on those early-birds while your underpants are still fresh. (linked here)

The final hand-painted/swirl dip sale goes live on Friday at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST and is the biggest and best of all of our swirl dip sales. Almost every one glows in the dark, and CanaDave has been working on improving the spread/patterns/colors. Trust me, they look great and sound perfect. There were a few that were semi-spoiled along the way, and we’ll put those up for sale too at 50% off.

Last night we got the okay for a 3-4x cassette discography that should see the light of day summer/fall. Massively influential band for us that started on Hex, moved to Level Plane, and ended up on Prosthetic. Do your research if you want answers :)

A reminder that our first new release of 2022 (everything else has basically been stuff released years ago) as Palestine’s Atameo drops on 100 12” this upcoming Monday. Mixing the urgency of Senza with the confidence of Dawn Treader, this collection of songs will definitely make some best of 2022 lists. We will have most of the copies, with the band having about 20 and Middle Man Records carrying 10. Jam the second song from it below:

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: NAÏVETÉ = Ex-Joliette, this project has been in the works for a few years but their debut full length was just released and it’s awesome.
