January 22, 2024 by David Norman

We got in some Orchid 12”s but they sold out insanely fast, so we’ll snag more for February.

Waiting for more Tristan Tzara news? You got. Check back on Wednesday January 24th!!!

Edhochuli released the teaser for their upcoming music video and it’s fucking hilarious. I cannot wait to see this thing. New LP drops February 12th and you can catch them at ZBR Fest 2024 or any of the dates from the updated tour poster above!

Riversleem was featured on the No Echo Spotlight series, giving their 2023 sophomore 7”EP a boost. Check out that incredible thang below, or click on the pic above or this text to go to the review.

Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow got some love from Operation X-Ray, who played “Martian Stealth Tec” on their most recent episode alongside a few more hours of bangers! Jam/buy ‘LP’ here!

A truly remarkable band from two decades ago, For The Mathematics, were on CanaDave’s podcast. If you aren’t familiar with this band…mmmmmm maybe do so ;) Click on this text to go to the full post or just listen below.

2023 - 12 - 12 /// Inosuke out, Blind Girls tomorrow!

December 12, 2023 by David Norman

Onewaymirror sold out in less than 12 hours, so that’s nice. Thanks y’all! A repress is highly likely.

Next up, ZBR Fest 2024 early bird tickets + Wave 1 releases this Friday. You are not fucking ready, holy shit.

Lastly, we had the digitals for Inosuke release yesterday along with 12” pre-orders that should be shipping by the end of January. Please jam that shit below! Buy links are located there also.

I’m on my knees praying to the mage gods, as the /25 Wax Mage variant of the ‘The Weight of Everything’ 12”LP second press by Blind Girls is beyond sensational. This is a co-release with No Funeral and Life Lair Regret Records. These go live on December 13th a little later than usual, 1pm PST / 3pm CST / 4pm EST. Our tapes our almost out! Canada+International here / Bandcamp copies here

Riversleem’s music video is officially on youtube and our 7”s are runnin’ low! Get one of the best EPs of 2023 and they’re only /100!

CanaDave had the legendary Gifts From Enola on his OMSB podcast. There’s some…uhhhhhhh…important info in there :) Go to the full post by clicking on the pic above or this text. If you wanna go straight to the podcast it’s below. More info soon!

Massa Nera showed up on Idioteq.com’s 10 Extremely Vulnerable Post-Hardcore Albums Not To Miss. They also released Derramar | Querer | Borrar’s remixes which you can check out here. Hopefully we see them this summer :)

Beats Per Minute released their Top Songs of 2023 and our very own Olth showed up there. Obviously. Click the pic above or this text for the full list.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: CAPSULE = Would you look at that…new Capsule, aka the gods of mathy screamo.

These go live at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST!!!

2023 - 12 - 09 /// Onewaymirror 12"s in one hour, Inosuke in 48 hours

Onewaymirror 12”s go up for sale in just one hour, 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST with BSDJ’s copies going up later today. There are only 200 copies so be sure to snag one immediately…we only have around 40! The vinyl links will become active at the bottom of the bandcamp page embedded below.

Inosuke’s debut 12” LP releases on Monday! We’ll have the digitals out as well as a rare vinyl pre-order. The tests were approved back in mid-November so we should have them in January. There’s 125 Galaxy and 125 3-Color Smash. We don’t like doing mock-ups so just go with your heart. Jam a track below!

Behold, the nebula and random ‘The Weight of Everything’ 12”LP second press by Australia’s incredible Blind Girls. This is a co-release with No Funeral and Life Lair Regret Records. These go live on December 13th a little later than usual, 1pm PST / 3pm CST / 4pm EST. Mage pictures next!

Riversleem released their first ever music video through (((((OPENmind/SATURATEDbrain))))) for “Eating Teeth”. It’s a fucking wicked video and a helluva jam to boot. Click on the pic above or this text to get Sleemed, eh?

Carrion Spring got some much deserved love from Stereogum for their new/incredible EP ‘how it all falls away petal by petal’. Be sure to check out the review by clicking on this text or the pic above, and jam that amazing stuff below!

Operation X-Ray did another excellent radio show, this time starting off the screamo/skramz section with our very own Othiel and Carrion Spring!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: LIVE LONGER BURN EVERYTHING = Awesome screamo/metallic hardcore hybrid that could have come out 20 years and been runnin’ the show!

Closet Witch’s guitarist Alex Crist was on CanaDave’s podcast the other day so definitely check that out as we all wait in anticipation for the release of ‘Chiaroscuro’ on November 3rd, 2023.

Operation X-Ray was back again on Friday, this time playing tunes by Saton, Crowning, and Euclid C Finder!

Saton got some love from White Owl aka Blanca Lechuza which includes an interview with the guitarist/vocalist. “translate to English” is needed for those that don’t speak Spanish. Click on this pic or this text to go there, and jam the new album below (p.s. we’ve got tapes via Tomb Tree).

Out Past the Rings #171 was for Italy’s Storm{o} and their ‘Finis Terrae’ cassette full length, the last of their material before signing to Prosthetic Records in 2022.

October 26, 2023 by David Norman

Closet Witch continues their run to ‘Chiaroscuro’ with their latest music video for ‘Haunting and Releasing’ alongside an interview with Mollie (vocals/lyrics). Get access to the interview by clicking on this text or the pic above and watch the music video below.

None other than Stereogum gave their seal of approval to ‘As Dust Collects’ by New Forms. Blue is nearly sold out (none left on Bandcamp, 3 left in the Canada store, less than 10 in the US store) and black will obviously be out the door next. Click on this this text or the pic above to go to said review.

Saskatchewan’s Riversleem continues to get love, this time from Everything Is Noise. Great write up! Click on the pic above or this text to go there.

My Condolences received the swirl package by Tomb Tree and features Jordan of Scenario on guitar/vox! Really sick stuff recorded and mixed by our mutual friend Jane <3 Only 32 copies exist!

Elle was the subject of the most recent Out Past the Rings, #170 to be exact. These are long sold out but if you’d like some extra info check that embed below or just go jam the stellar LP that is ‘…’ right fucking here.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: MANSIONS = Oh my god yes new Mansions! I really loved the dark minimalist synth stuff but they’re back at the poppy shoegaze stuff, both are great!
