2024 - 04 - 05 /// Gxllium! promo pics

First and foremost, it’s Bandcamp Friday. Please consider supporting us so we can keep making records <3

.22LR released their self-titled debut earlier this week and it fucking rocks. Fans of Frail Body, Gil Cerrone, Youth Funeral, and Othiel should give this a whirl…I think you’ll dig it hard. Tapes linked to our stores directly through the Tomb Tree Bandcamp below :)

Click here for the full premiere!!!

Terry Green premiered their new jam “Full Lip” from the upcoming ‘Provisional Living’ 12”LP. First album in a fucking decade and yes, it’s worth the wait. Even better than their debut!

---

Gxllium! promo pics have surfaced with the debut album releasing on ZBR this Monday April 8th at 9am EST / 11am CST / 12pm EST!!! Some very sick variants, not many made, as we’ll only have 70. Is that metal on the green tape, David? Why, yes. Yes it is. Bad-fucking-ass. CanaDave spoke with them a few weeks back which you can listen to below.

---

Hawak released some of the best screamo ever then called it a day. CanaDave finally got off his ass and did another Out Past the Rings, this time for ‘Nuoc’, arguably one of the best things we’ve ever released. Co-released with Left Hand Label, not Dog Knights. I got one copy in this store and one on Bandcamp!!!

---

Lower Automation was featured on Brooklyn Vegan’s “New Song Roundup”. The tapes arrived for this new EP yesterday so I’m already dipping away. Full release May 20th! Click on the pic above or this text to go to the article.

2023 - 03 - 17 /// Hawak, Black Matter Device, Telos, and Olth

First things first, Hawak is unable to perform at Zegema Beach Records Fest 2023 in Chicago, but at least 1) we saw them last year and 2) Black Matter Device will be taking their place! Updated posters below. Click on this text to go to the ZBRfest.com site where you can get tickets.

OLTH. Yep. June 2nd debut full length on cassette. Get fucking ruined.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: LORNE MALVO = This French band released their previous EP on ZBR (and we have a few copies left!) and this new EP is even better!

2023 - 02 - 22 /// Crowning + Eyelet split 7"

Surprise split 7” between two of screamo’s hottest bands CROWNING and EYELET! Vinyl is in hand and ready to ship from either yours truly or our buds at The Ghost Is Clear Records. There’s 150 of each variant (green and yellow) totaling 300 slabs of sickness.

Don’t forget that these two bands are skramzing-off with a battle set at this year’s ZBR Fest pre-show! The only way to get access to the pre-show is to buy a 2-day pass and those are dwindling!

Click on this poster to go to the ZBRFEST.com site where you can order tickets.

Also, if you need more Crowning in your life you can flush 30 minutes down the drain and watch their European tour documentary with Swallows Nest.

This Canada/International store just got key restocks for Hawak, Cinq, and Reverie! Only two more copies of each as we can’t keep them in stock! Cinq is very close to selling out btw.

HAWAK - nuoc (12")

CA$30.00

HAWAK ‘nuoc‘ 12"LP (ZB185)

For fans of: Kidcrash, Brahm and Beau Navire

It is time. One of the best screamo records of the last decade is finally upon us! HAWAK’s debut full length was delayed for over a year, but through the fire and the flames it carried on, and is finally available thanks to a proper vinyl pressing from Pirates Press. Technically the second time it's been pressed, first time made available to the screamo masses. Released on 300 gold records via Zegema Beach Records, Left Hand Label, and the band. 10 songs of jangly, noodley screamo goodness from the Bay Area, teeming with struggle, defiance, strength and solidarity. Mixing the band’s previous outfit Matsuri with a bit more Kidcrash and a bit more Loma Prieta, HAWAK’s debut 12”LP is astonishing in both its vision and execution. And the folks that play in the band are just plain dandy. ❤

12” vinyl /300 on marigold (2nd/good run). Includes insert booklet and stickers. 10 songs.

REVERIE - Everything repeats itself forever (12")

CA$22.00

REVERIE ‘Everything repeats itself forever‘ 12LP" (ZBR288)

For fans of: Raein, Monte Ida, and Gillian Carter

Incredible, driving, romantic screamo from Italy. Dynamic shifts, passionate screams, epic-yet-concise...this really is an incredible album. 8 absolutely bangin’ screamo jam from the world’s primo screamo hot-spot in Italy, the record sways dangerously back and forth between blazing, violent, noisy, cathartic hardcore to serene, melodic, introspective melodic sections.

12” /300 on red transparent marble vinyl. Includes lyric insert. 8 songs.

2022 - 09 - 14 /// Apostles Of Eris split? No way! ;)

Wait a minute…Apostles Of Eris does split releases? No way!!! (hahaha I’m so funny) But yes, Apostles Of Eris has a brand spankin’ new 7” split with New York’s Ennui!

This is a co-release with Day Zero Collective with them having most of the copies!

CanaDave’s non-screamo label Softseed Music is releasing some very nice tapes for the fantastic ‘don’t care - good music’ EP from math-rock project Charger Port tomorrow. Three sick songs over three sick variants. Mmmmmmm here’s one titled “DON’T CARE good swirl”.

---

Here’s a teaser pic of one of the My Hair Is A Rat’s Nest variants for the new cassette releasing next week on Tomb Tree! Without a doubt one of the coolest concoctions we’ve come up with. And the 23-minute song fucking rules!

---

A reminder that Desolate Hands Move the Hour 4-way split 10” is utterly fantastic. Check the Out Past the Rings video! Nab a copy!

---

And thus we conclude the beautiful memory trip for ZBR Fest 2022 that were transmitted by the individual band videos. Last one? Hawak. I love Hawak. I love Tom. I love Jon. I love Josh. Brick up, my friends. Brick up. By the way, Chicago was so bricked up on Day 2 of ZBR Fest Mid-West 2022 on June 12th, 2022 that when we demanded an encore the band just played the opener again (as they had no more songs ready) and the crowd went even more ballistic. Awesome times. See you in May 2023 <3

ZBR081 Release date: October 1st, 2017
For fans of: Van Johnson, Daniel Striped Tiger and Nouveau

We've been watching TERRY GREEN tear it up for almost half a decade and this 12"LP is the testament to those sweaty, passionate and raw years spent writing an exceptional album of screamy post-hardcore. Housing six basic tracks titled "I" to "VI", the release titled 'LP' will have you screaming, bobbing along or being floored by the band's precision and technical prowess at any given moment. Four awesome people making awesome music. That's why we do this.

HUNDREDS OF AU - A Briefing on the Human Condition (12")

CA$25.00

HUNDREDS OF AU ‘A Briefing on the Human Condition‘ 12"EP (ZBR295)

For fans of: Trainwreck, This Ship Will Sink, and Folly

The very prolific HUNDREDS OF AU released this stellar 5-song EP in late 2021 to much acclaim and now it’s arrived on 45rpm eco-mix 12”s out of 200! Co-released with Protagonist Music, the 12” vinyl contains a blazing-yet-controlled metallic hardcore/screamo fusion from members of You And I, Hell Mary, and The Assistant. Although the balance is obvious on all tracks, songs like “Objective Party” and “Afloat” really showcase an incredible ability to sustain melody and progression whilst retaining power and weight. Easily one of the best EPs of 2021.

12”EP /200 on eco-mix vinyl. Includes insert and sticker. 5 songs.

To Forget had a set that left most people with their jaws open. This band brought their debut LP and just floored everyone with their live rendition including the guitarist/vocalist bending over backward on the monitor. I’d say pick up a 12” but they’re all gone. Here’s some awesomeness from the ZBR Fest Mid-West 2022 Day 1 on June 11th, 2022.
