This gargantuan release for ‘Disinformation Fix’ by the almighty Usurp Synapse is at the plant, and with all the bells and whistles on this classic we’ve decided to open pre-orders to help pay for these elaborate and amazing die-cut gatefold jackets. The 2x12” releases on 500 units of random colored vinyl. We’ll start pre-orders this Tuesday at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST in the two ZBR stores, none will be on Bandcamp. Please remember these WILL NOT SHIP UNTIL NOVEMBER. That includes orders with additional items in the order, the entire order will be held until November. When’s that? Shipping in November. Okay, got it. November.

Twins pre-orders for their new 12” ‘It’s_complicated’ go up for sale on Thursday August 21st. This will coincide with a new single and music video for it! Oh happy day…Thursday…specifically. Check out the first single below.

Not Just A Phase Vol.3 releases August 22nd! Next week we’ll reveal the participating bands, with each band submitting an unreleased track! 24 in total!!!

Hoari tapes are moving fast and almost gone. I’m pretty sure a decent amount of our followers weren’t aware of this phenomenal 2024 release so we’re happy to get it in the ears of new people. For fans of: Ditch Organ, Telos, Course, and Shora.

Nuvolascura moved like hot cakes. We’ve got our small leftover stock going up on the next Big Stuff Thing, the almighty 7th, on Sunday September 14th at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. The band’s new album ‘How This All Ends’ was also reviewed by Rocking from Greece. Check out that review by clicking on the pic above or this text. Jam the album below.

Othiel got some much deserved love from This Noise Is Ours. I’d tell you to pick up some cds but we’re hella out, and the band probably is too after their recent shows. You snooze, you loose. Geez, I’m a dick today. Click on the pic above or this text to go to the review. Jam ‘World’s Fastest Car’ below.

Avery Friedman comes in next week! The 12”s finally finished and I’ll have pictures of them up with store links (including a new ZBR U.S.A. store link!) pretty much as soon as they arrive. In other awesome Softseed Music news the Bok Suna tests were approved today. The 12”s should be in hand for the full release on August 29th!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: DOLLIE ROT = A new song from this wicked solo artist. Expect news next week about Dollie and Softseed!
