Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: POOLSIDE AT THE FLAMINGO = We got some of these on tape for the first time and it’s bananas.

2023 - 04 - 15 /// Scenario music video!

April 15, 2023 by David Norman

There’s just over one week until the Scenario 12”LP for ‘When All is Said and Done‘ but you can watch the music video for the lead single “Voyage” right now via Brooklyn Vegan. New 12”LP releasing in full (digitally and physically) on Monday April 24th, 2023 from Zegema Beach Records, The Ghost Is Clear Records, and Mishap Records. Click on this text to go to the full Brooklyn Vegan article!

The Zmar 12” records are done and ship to us next week. Full release the day after I get back from ZBR Fest on May 10th, 2023. We’ll only have 50-75 copies with the band retaining the remainder alongside the European label Dingleberry Records. Check the teaser for ‘Napořád‘ out below.

Tomb Tree has the Taubenhund EP ‘A Collection of Highly Unlikely Collaborations’ releases this Wednesday April 19th so it’s about high time we show off those sexy variants! (not pictured: test /5 + band exclusive /15) You willfind a song premiere coming this Monday from Not Just A Phase!

Niboowin got the Zegema Beach Records roster review series treatment from This Noise Is Ours. We have some copies left in stock but once that new album drops I bet this one will sell out quickly. Click on the pic or the text to go to the review.

Today’s Hiding In the Outpost (aka our last copy of something):

What the fuck is Reste/Chivalà still doing in our stores! We only like…15 or something. Reste is ex-Yusuke but spins an incredible melodic European spin on the Youth Novel sound and it’s absolutely sensational. Chivalà is ex-Pastel and super sick Euro screamo. Someone is gonna be really happy when they snag this. The band’s only output!!!

now sold out:
Foxmoulder discography cassette (a few No Funeral copies remain!)
Vi Som Alskade + They Sleep We Live split 7”
Euth 12”LP
Terry Green + Huge Cosmic split
Subjects/Rulers tape

RESTE + CHIVALÀ - Split (cassette)

CA$10.00

RESTE + CHIVALÀ - Split cassette (ZBR225)

For fans of: Youth Novel, Funeral Diner, Raein and Pelican

Italian heavyweights CHIVALÀ (ex-Pastel) team up with the new RESTE from the U.S. (ex-Yusuke/Kelut) to create an awesome split that'll just leave you wanting more. Released on a plethora of fantastic labels, we only made 15 on our signature swirl (9 in the U.S. store & 2 Canada/International) so these probably won't last too long. Enjoy!

Cassettes: /150 on multiple variants, ours is /15 Zegema Beach Records signature swirl, w/tracklist j-card and lyric sheet.

Listen here:
https://zegemabeachrecords.bandcamp.com/album/split-9

Nhomme is 100% sold out but we just got a 2nd run in that we’ll release later summer/early fall when all the handmade j-cards and slip covers are made by the band. It’s a rather lengthy process. Why, you ask? Cuz check the music video below. The Clerks in Italy recently rejoiced in their new EP which you can read about by clicking on the pic or this text.

Listen to the EP in full here.

CanaDave’s Softseed Label released the Uno Lady album ‘Alaska’ last month and she’s just released a new music video for “Breakthrough”. Check it out below, and their down to the last 4 tapes on the Softseed Music bandcamp page.

2023 - 02 - 03 /// Long.Way.Down. single

February 03, 2023 by David Norman

We put up the closer from Long.Way.Down.’s upcoming EP ‘until there’s nothing left’ because, quite frankly, we felt guilty sitting on such a ridiculous release. All six songs come out March 13th, 2023 on 75 tapes…which just arrived yesterday!

My Hair Is A Rat’s Nest also vomited a song all over Bandcamp today, another closing track, this one titled “forever” from the full length cassette ‘fragment’ due out this Monday on Tomb Tree!!! 37 tapes go live at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST.

The Yashira and Horsewhip split 7” recently got some love from the Lambgoat site! 7”s continue to move quickly. Click on the picture above or this text to go to the article. Maybe don’t read the comments lol

A friendly reminder that this Sunday February 5th, 2023 we will update the distro on both sites. The U.S. store (just search for vinyl and they will be at the top) will have a bunch of the Dingleberry/Shove distro that this Canada/International store mostly sold out of.

We won’t be getting any more and Moment Of Collapse is already sold out so it’s now or never.

Brooklyn Vegan noticed that awesomeness that is the Yashira + Horsewhip split 7” (both musically and artistically) so be sure to get an unhealthy dose of heaviness. We moved more than half of these in the first day! /250 on white marble with glossy covers and matching red innersleeves. Mmmmm baby.

This Sunday February 5th, 2023 we will update the distro on both sites. The U.S. store (just search for vinyl and they will be at the top) will have a bunch of the Dingleberry/Shove distro that this Canada/International store mostly sold out of.
