CanaDave did another Out Past the Rings, the 162nd, for the short-lived west coast project Valtiel. One tape left. May or may not come with laryngitis.

Who was one of the most talked about bands post-fest? Mouthing. Without a doubt. This shroud of mystery ruined everyone for about 15 minutes. Here’s some jams. Somehow we have a few tapes left. We will continue posting the single videos for each band that played ZBR Fest 2023 in the order that they played, so there’s more coming!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: VENUS TWINS = These friends detonated the last night of ZBR Fest and just finished a sick 11-day run with Heavenly Blue. They are the fucking bomb.

First off, Faffle and Vault are over. Thank you so much for your support and enthusiasm! Winner emails have been sent out. All orders go out this week.

In Loving Memory’s remix/remaster tapes for ‘As Years Pass and Feel Like Seconds’ are done and ready for release on Friday June 23rd from Zegema Beach and Illuminate My Heart Records. Pictured above is the primary swirl, with the other variants revealing on Wednesday. The band is actively booking shows and making new music so that’s fucking sick.

Massa Nera premiered another killer music video from their ‘Derramar Querer Borrar’ full length, this time for “A Faint Goodbye”, via Brooklyn Vegan. We are definitely dwindling on some variants (with others already being sold out) and the band is also on tour in less than two months with Quiet Fear and Habak on their road to New Friends Fest. Poster below! Click on this text or the pic above for the video premiere.

Here’s a friendly reminder that we did some new runs for .gif from god’s ‘Digital Red’ as well as both Nuvolascura full lengths. They’re all in the US store as well, and for the Nuvo tapes we have a super limited amount so we already sold half of our stock last week.

.GIF FROM GOD - Digital Red (cassetteEP)

.GIF FROM GOD - Digital Red (cassetteEP)

from CA$12.50

.GIF FROM GOD - Digital Red (cassetteEP) (ZBR321)

For fans of: Me And Him Call It Us, Meth., and Brazen Bull

Well holy effing crap we’re here again. Another ridiculous .GIF FROM GOD release and another ZBR variation of the Prosthetic release. This one’s much more limited than our previous offerings, coming on just 134 tapes with the band taking 75 of those. The six-piece’s growth has seen the band get ever tighter while shifting into a dirtier, darker, more nightmarish realm not unlike Meth.’s EP material. It’s straight-up a shock to the senses.

134 cassettes: 65 on ‘pink cow’s meow’ swirl, 34 on ‘digital guts’ swirl, 20 on ‘flaming swirl’, 10 on pink/blue halfsies, and 5 test dips w/matching swirl case. 6 songs.

Holy shit Nerver fucking rocked the upstairs SubT as the first band up there, blasting out pretty much all of my fave Nerver shit. We will continue posting the single videos for each band that played ZBR Fest 2023 in the order that they played, so there’s more coming!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: ? = Atlanta-based project is some sick atmospheric blackgaze. That first jam has Blue Noise, early Deafheaven, Sickle Eater, Somn, and Hope Drone written all over it.
