Big Stuff Thing tomorrow + 75% off distro!

September 04, 2026 by David Norman

Holy fucking shit it’s Big Stuff Thing #7 tomorrow at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST in combination with a blowout 75% off distro items under the following headings with click-thru links: 12 Records (Distro #-N), 12” Records (Distro O-Z), 7” Records (Distro), 5”/6”/9”/10” Records (Distro), Cassettes (Distro), and CDs (Distro).

The discount will applied as a refund less than 24 hours after purchase (as I have to sift through each order to figure out the parts of the order that need the applied discount).

Feel free to place multiple orders if you’re scared of something selling out whilst perusing, as I can see if you make multiple orders in the system and will either refund you some shipping or at least try and slip you a freebie tape/cd/vinyl (weight permitting).

A handful of pictures are pictured in the galleries above to give you some indication of what will be in the Big Stuff Thing #7 which will be linked at this address (no it’s not active yet) -> https://www.zegemabeachrecords.com/bst7 and you can scope some further info below if you don’t mind being screamed at.

All That’s Left Of You was released on cassette today by Tomb Tree! That means we’ve got a bunch of copies in this store as well as the Tomb Tree bandcamp as it’s Bandcamp Friday and the variants are sick as fuck and includes a glow-in-the-dark variant! Just 40 copies made that fans of Febuary, Youth Novel, And Its Name Was Epyon, etc. will fall in love with.

Mieke released a new jam that you can scope above, and a friendly reminder that Softseed released her newest LP ‘Frau Eva’ on 12” earlier this year!

Today’s Last Fucking Copy goes to the Serling x Charger Port split 12”! I have one clear copy left of these crazy limited Tomb Tree lathes. Shan’t be repressed so snag it below or forever hold your peace.

CHARGER PORT + SERLING - I don't watch sports anymore (12

CHARGER PORT + SERLING - I don't watch sports anymore (12" lathe)

CA$48.00

CHARGER PORT + SERLING ‘I don’t watch sports anymore’ 12” lathe (TT105-2)

For fans of: The Totemist, Scale The Summit, Under The Pier and Frontierer.

An absolute feast of mathcore with this math-rock/math-metal spit ‘I don’t watch sports anymore’ from CHARGER PORT and SERLING. Both bands bring some serious heat, with the former relying on groovy and mathy instrumental rock/post-hardcore/prog while the latter lay down destructive, wonky, intense, mathy metallic hardcore/metal. The 25 black and 25 clear lathes are 45rpm stereo and sound fantastic (like a regular vinyl, basically), complete with inserts and one-of-a-kind painted jackets by Josh of Vamonos Tapes with a few alternate designs! Said alternate covers (the non-black ones) will be randomly inserted in orders, so cross those fingas! Released on Tomb Tree, King Fisher, and Soft Grit. Art by Robbie Smith, mixed/mastered by Joey Woodward.

Vinyl /50, 25 clear and 25 black, w/two-sided insert. 3 songs by CP and 2 by Serling.

2026 - 8 - 31 /// Juniper Smile released and September schedule

August 31, 2026 by David Norman

Hey y’all! Large happenings are on the horizon!!! First off we’ve got Big Stuff Thing #7 going down on Friday September 11th that will include Concealer 12”s, Sear wax mage, a bunch of test presses, and more.

Second, Tomb Tree releases All That’s Left Of You’s debut self-titled EP on September 4th which is this Friday (Bandcamp Friday, no less). This thing is absolutely badass and I’m dipping those tapes right now.

Third, there’s the Monterey 12”LP release on September 18th for ‘it always passes over me’ which features members of Concealer and Rosemary Nods Upon The Grave!

Fourth, after that we have a supergroup release in late September from Ghola but I’ll give you more info on that soon.

Lastly, in the meantime please scope that Rainmaking x Senza split 12” and the Nuvolascura ‘As We Suffer From Memory and Imagination’ 12”LP repress as well as the Juniper Smile tapes released on Softseed a little futher down.

Juniper Smile released their posthumous, self-titled album today on Softseed Music. This band features Griffin on drums who plays in Cadere with ZBR Dave and played a very playful mixture of punk, indie, emo, and shoegaze. I made 29 cassettes but the band has more than half so I only have 3-5 of each variant and then they’re gone and won’t be repressed, so snag it now!!!

Wollruss played Victoria last week alongside Manitoba’s Leavesliketinyflames and additional local support from Treewell and Csilla’s Star Is Gone. Twas a fucking blast and honestly insane for a Thursday show. Check out the full recap below with a song from each band. No future dates are booked for Wollruss or Cadere until late November at the earliest.

What the fuck is going on, I shouldn’t have a Majorel cassette still. This is one of the best EPs ZBR has ever put out and this is a rare test edition. Seriously go jam that opening track and tell me this isn’t incredible. This is today’s Last Fucking Copy. Shan’t be repressed cuz that band is long dead. Act now or forever hold your peace.
