Biological Fathers aka screamo supergroup just released their fist three-song EP on cd and it’s as stupid-good as you’d expect. Featuring members of Majorel, New Forms, Crowning, Frail Body, and Eyelet, the conglomerate cast of friends absolutely knocked this outta the fucking park. The closer alone is worth the cd purchase…fuckin’ hell.

Clout Funeral’s ‘For Pepper…’ released yesterday on 101 cassettes, but don’t let that big number fool you, we’ve only got 25 for the label and the rest were needed for the North Carolina band’s shows! Wicked throwback screamo mixed with newer elements and other genres. Such a good EP and the song titles are hilarious to boot. Released on Tomb Tree.

ZBR Fest tickets go up this week, probably on Thursday! Maybe Friday! We’ll let you know though. No waves, just the full lineup and two-day passes for Red Gate in Vancouver on May 2nd and 3rd. The pre-show will likely go up in a few weeks, which happens May 1st on Vancouver Island in Victoria at Big Fernwood. While you wait why not check out last year’s fest videos?

Clout Funeral and Limbs were featured on the most recent episode of Operation X-Ray so check that shit out! Thanks Andre <3

Vocalist Brandon of Serrate joined our good friend Edie on the Everything Remade podcast! Check it out (I am doing so right now) and pick up their debut 12”LP before they sell out. Only red copies left!!! Maybe we’ll see them in…oooooooh, I dunno…May perhaps?

Toilet OV Hell featured our very own Sear and Gravess in the first ever Anti-Fascist Scrub! Both releases have sold very well, with Sear 12”s only having about 20 remaining and Gravess having 5 left! Click on the pic above or this text to access the full scrub. Jam/buy either album below!

I’ve stumbled across a final Lacrima 7” for ‘Cartography’ which features members of Funeral Diner, Hundreds AU, This Ship Will Sink, Massa Nera, and Coma Regalia!!! As we won’t be making more of these I strongly recommend you snag this Last Fucking Copy, and once it goes there are now tapes via Middle Man Records. Please pick this up from Bandcamp now or forever hold your peace.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: FOREVER = Holy crap this group is ex-Swan Of Tuonela, Majorel, Massa Nera, etc.!

New Zealand’s Mieke released the incredible ‘Frau Eva’ in August of 2025 and Softeed Music was all over that, so they’ve got some “funfetti cake edition” 12”LPs that should be shipping in late April. If you like grungy-yet-beautiful shoegaze mixed with minimal ethereal singer/songwriter material.

Oh and in uhhhhh…completely unrelated news, we’ll be posting the ZBR Fest tickets next week! We’ll have the tickets up for the two-day fest on May 2nd and 3rd in Vancouver at Red Gate, with the May 1st pre-show following the week after.

Today you can get a sneak peak at the all-star release from Biological Fathers coming out in full this Sunday, as the band just put up the opener “Caddy”. ZBR had cds for the full release this Super Bowl Sunday at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. These three songs are phenomenal and feature members from Frail Body, Crowning, New Grass, Eyelet, and Majorel! Holy fuck!!!

Clout Funeral’s new EP ‘For Pepper…’ releases on Monday via Tomb Tree! This thing is wicked and honestly sounds a lot like it was written 25 years ago, giving it a huge throwback feel whilst incorporating their own unique spin on it. We made a buncha tapes but with most going to the band we’ll only be keeping 25 so be sure to check it out upon its release! 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST…you know the drill.

Everything Is Noise gave Sear some love…I think? Screamo never sleeps, my friends. Click on the pic above or this text to go there. Jam/buy the album below as our 50 copies have dwindled significantly since last month’s release.

Vibora got a much more in-depth feature from Everything Is Noise two weeks before their new 12”LP drops. Like a mixture of Boneflower, Crossed, and Storm{o}, this Spanish quartet are gonna blow some minds. We’ve also got a second press of their previous full length which you can access by clicking on this text. Go to the article above. Pre-order the new record below.

Blue Youth got a shoutout/play from CHRW Chin Music via their 2025 Favourites pt.2 so please pick up the ‘Defeatist’ 12” cuz it kicks majory ass and we’re hella out their debut 12”.

Oh shit we still a Drei Affen x Coma Regalia split 7”! Much like the previous Last Fucking Copy, as we sold out years back but I imported the last copies from Europe a year or so ago and for some reason this last one is still here. Please rectify and pick this up from Bandcamp now or forever hold your peace. Thus concludes today’s Last Fucking Copy.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: EYELET = The new record from the homies is out! Wax mages are gone but nebula and the other two variants are still in stock!!! If you want the previous 12”LP you can snag ‘The Devil Shining Out Your Eyes’ by clicking on this text.
