A ton was going on today including represses, new 12” pressing plant submissions, cassette duplication orders, acquiring an old band’s permission for a discography release, shipping tons of shit AND finishing up those sneaky double-cassette discographies for the Japanese band we hinted at yesterday. Any guesses?

Probably worth noting that today we received masters from Jack Shirley for a new 6-way 12” that’s gonna blow your mind. Five of the bands have released on ZBR previously, but we’re super stoked to welcome aboard BURIAL ETIEQUETTE from Ontario. Kinda screamo Slow Mass, as I put it to the band today. Should be ready March 2022 maybe? <3 <3 <3

Johnny Reco-mmendation Roughnecks: BRUME RETINA = After getting hard into Gameness last year, I’ve fallen hard for their next project, the fantastically French Brume Retina. I haven’t reached the split yet but the two full lengths are amazing.
