Euclid C Finder! 12”s are moving fast over at Dark Trail, and I figured we’d post the music video here as well as a song from their live set at ZBR Fest 2023!

Oh Euclid C Finder!, turning the downstairs of Subterranean into pure chaos during ZBR Fest 2023! You beautiful rapscallions. We will continue posting the single videos for each band that played the last day of ZBR Fest 2023 in the order that they played, so there’s more coming!

2022 - 09 - 29 /// ...OF DEATH...discography 2x12"!!!

Monday October 10th will see the release of the 2x12” ‘…discography’ by ….Of Death with D-side etching. It’s /300 copies and 150 of them are this - yellow/red merge disc 1 and ghostly red w/etching for disc 2. We’ll reveal the other variant next week. This is a co-release with Cliff Parade and Law Of Cycles, with each label taking 100 copies. Rosa of Law Of Cycles had this to say about the release:

What is there to say about ...Of Death? The band pulled my heart into a new world entirely at a time when I relied on nu-metal for catharsis. On "Generation of Vipers" the band draws from a similar well of influence frequented by Jeromes Dream, Tristan Tzara, and In Loving Memory. The songs prioritize the obnoxious attitude of punk while highlighting the urgency of grindcore, & work to convey the glory of triumphant rage. Well, more than they care to succumb to sadness & stillness, anyway. The Doomsday clock is ticking...

Check out one of the remastered songs (by Will Killingsworth) on the most recent Zampler 19, embedded below.

Hiding In The Outpost numba three is for Euth, as the Canada/International store (aka this one) only has one copy left! Bandcamp page with order link is embedded below!

CanaDave did an interview for this lengthy screamo piece on Stereogum. It’s an article about screamo band reformations as of late, and brings up some great points and is an interesting read. It should be noted that there are quite a few individuals who have been playing screamo these past 20+ years but we understand that there’s only so much time for research and only so much space in an article. Click on this text for the article. <3 <3 <3

Blue Youth 12”s are on sale! Why? Because they are amazing! And you’ve likely never heard it. Please change that. For CanaDave’s sake, please at least give it a listen. It’s one of our best releases, hands down.

Sarin’s ‘Darker Lakes’ was the subject of the most recent This Noise Is Ours ZBR roster dive. To clarify, the 12” does not have the three ambient interludes because they wouldn’t fit on the 12”. We are sold out of this beauty, but do have 12”s and tapes of their follow-up release ‘You Can’t Go Back’. Click on this text to go to the review. Thanks as always James <3

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: C0MPUTER = This Richmond band surprised me with this new album and it’s fucking heeeeeeavy. Awesome follow-up!

2022 - 09 - 27 /// 2x12" Announcement on Thursday

October will see the release of a 2x12” discography with D-side etching. What is it? Not sayin’ yet. It’s /300 copies across two variants and I’ll give you a hint, they’re on this zampler :)

Colacon is gearing up to release their new album ‘The Pestilent Sickness’ on Tomb Tree via 50-something swirl tapes. Awesome grindy, mathy, metallic, myspace-core. Besides the video below, they also have a new song/video releasing this Friday on This Noise Is Ours!

My Hair Is A Rat’s Nest continues to own the top 5 screamo charts on bandcamp. Here’s a new/awesome review from the Revisionist Western Blog, which is a good time to remind you that the tapes are almost gone. Click on this link for the review!
