Oooooo baby on January 16th we shall release Advertising On The Channel Of Dreams’ five-song album on cassette! This cd-only release from 2009 is beyond ridiculous and is reminiscent of hyperspeed space screamo ala Via Fondo and Rainmaker with an added layer of danceability. Jam that two-minute track below and you will hear exactly what I mean.

Here’s another ZBR Fest reminder that the full lineup is out and the only way to gain access to the pre-show is to buy a two-day pass. Get hyped. Click on the pic to go to https://www.zbrfest.com/

Burial Etiquette and mis sueños son de tu adiós have a split cassette coming out on Tomb Tree tomorrow at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. 7 new jams of glitchy emo-violence and gorgeous post-rock/screamo over 78 copies. We only have about half of these, some of which are mystery swirls and test dips!

Victor Shores had a great review from Not Just A Phase that I may or may not have already posted. Truth is, this was one of our most-listened-to albums of 2022. So fucking good. Click on the text or picture to go there.

This Noise Is Ours covered the sold out ‘A Shadow Circuit’ by Terrible As The Dawn. Really awesome stuff that came out after they played the first Zegema Beach Records Fest in 2017 back when we were still in Toronto. Click on the pic or any of this text to go to the review.

Continuing the very successful Hiding In The Outpost comes the final Vi Som Alskade Varandra Sa Mycket + They Sleep We Live split 7”. Truly gorgeous color scheme and killer/exclusive tracks from these Swedish/German bands.

Mrtex/Samarra split tape
Sans Visage tapes

Cape Light was incredible. And so I say on the newest Out Past The Rings #142 for the ‘A Discography’ tape that we put out, sold out of, then I just posted one again but that one is now sold out. “You had your chance Gorman”. Maybe go check the Hiding In The Outpost series!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: ERETIA = I totally forgot that the new Eretia album ‘Quietud’ was released last month so I nabbed it and it’s fucking awesome.

Wave #3 is here. We couldn’t be happier. Hopefully you’ll join us for the massive smile party on May 5th to 7th. Ticket links through the ZBR Fest site which you can reach by clicking on either fest poster.

Reversal Of Man arrived at our US store last week so the Canada/International box should be arriving this week and be fully shipped out by the weekend! Rejoice!!! I said rejoice dammit.

Greed Worm just premiered a new video for their song “Gary Webb” from the upcoming split cassette w/Blackwater Sniper that releases on Tomb Tree in February

Burial Etiquette and mis sueños son de tu adiós have a split cassette coming out on Tomb Tree on January 11th at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. 7 new jams of glitchy emo-violence and gorgeous post-rock/screamo.

Get ready for a huge middle finger to 2023…and just about everything else. Releasing on Softseed Music, there is nothing soft or pretty about the debut Ego Death Children’s Choir album. This mind-melting sax/jazz/grind/noise fusion shares members with Blue Youth, Anemone, Surf Dads, Slow Down Molasses, etc. and brings to mind The Locust, Borbetomagus, The Sound That Ends Creation, and Naked City.

Holy smokes after doing stock I am now aware that we have one copy left of about 40 releases lol so this will definitely be an ongoing segment! Somehow we’re down to our last Amu Daria cassette from…2020? 2021? I think 2020. Incredible Malaysian screamo/emo-violence for fans of Virginia On Duty, Daighila, and Piri Reis!!!

now sold out:
Sans Visage tapes
Snag/Swallows Nest split tape
Respire all vinyl (tapes still in stock)
Young Mountain Lost Tree 12”

AMU DARIA - Amu Daria (tape)

from CA$9.00

AMU DARIA ‘Amu Daria‘ tape (ZB229)

For fans of: Virginia On Duty, (early) Yotsuya Kaidan and June Paik

In mid-2020 ZBR shipped over a bunch of tapes from essential Malaysian screamo label Utarid Tapes, and within that box of joy came some AMU DARIA tapes. We loved those tapes so much and we didn’t want North Americans to suffer the same fate as our bank account (shipping from Malaysia is expensive) that we’ve created 78 Zegema Beach Records’ editions of AMU DARIA’s absolutely phenomenal emo-violence EP debut. 7 tracks of dark, writhing, cathartic emo-violence.

Cassettes /78, 52 on Blue Flame Swirl, 11 on Silver, 10 mystery swirls and 5 test dips, all with fold-out/double-sided j-card w/lyrics and download code. 7 songs.

Variant:

Out Past The Rings 141 is for the Modern Rifles ‘LP + B-Sides’ cassette that we still have a couple copies in stock of. Ear art for the masses, kinda like Jimmy Eat World but heavier. So good.

Not Just A Phase did their 2022 staff picks and we’ve got some heaters on there along with the rest of the fire. Check it out by clicking on this text or the picture below.

Operation X-Ray recently played some new Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow on their show along with a ton of other sick bands include Mares Of Thrace and Dream, Inertia.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: HELLBENDER = Our friend who played in Hive Mind gave us the lowdown on their new band and it’s a noisy riot.
