2024 - 02 - 02 /// Tristan Tzara releases, Volp next, Telos on sale :(

Tristan Tzara’s ‘discography’ released two days ago with the mages and tacos immediately selling out, with the random color following (as we currently have 4 left), with black dwindling after that and a handful of metallic reds that should be in stock at least until summer. So if you’re picky I wouldn’t wait, but if metallic red is your game there’s no massive rush <3 Remember European friends can order from Dog Knights and Voice Of The Unheard. Shove Records in Italy will also get at least 10 copies in the near future.

Jam the album here!

Telos released an truly incredible album…then they broke up. Absolutely gutted. We’ve put the tapes on sale for the next week in case you want to pick one up, as we won’t be making more!

TELOS - Delude (cassette)

from CA$12.50

TELOS ‘Delude’ cassette LP (TT079)

For fans of: Hexis, Rotting In Dirt, Malevich, and I Am A Curse.

Denmark’s finest blackened hardcore/metal supergroup have released their finest work to date, as this LP is absolutely sensational. Simultaneously epic, destructive, and forward-thinking, these 8 tracks span more than most bands in any of the aforementioned genres. Definitely in line for one of the best of 2023.

Tapes /36, 20 on grey swirl, 10 on broken gold swirl, 3 on grey, and 3 test dips, all w/jcard. 8 songs.

Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow got a shoutout in the January’s Last of the Month by Borderline Fuckup. We’ve moved through a fair amount of these babies and once they sell out we won’t be repressing anytime soon…cuz it’s just an internet project. T.J. McSnaggerson the III (jr.)!!!

And finally, This Noise Is Ours did a nice piece on the People’s Temple Project + Sleeper Wave split 12” via their ZBR Roster Review series. Click on the pic above or this text to go there. Jam that shit below. We might even have one copy left!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: COMA REGALIA = This new album just came out today! Geeeeeeeet it!

2023 - 11 - 11 /// Llewelyn

Llewelyn’s ‘Disposable Culture’ released yesterday on Tomb Tree and we have a limited amount of tapes, including the bulk of the 20 swirled copies and all of the test dips. The band’s noise-rock is on the heavy side (there’s a lotta screamin’) and certainly dabbles in post-hardcore, packing all five songs with serious punch. Jam/buy below!

---

Othiel will follow Obroa-skai’s ‘Science Progresses One Funeral at a Time’ 12”LP, with the latter releasing November 17th and the former December 1st. Jam the two singles above and below this text, fans of Crowning will be fucking stoked.

Click for the review.

The Quietus lay down some nice words about Closet Witch’s ‘Chiaroscuro’. I think at this point if you listen to heavy music you’ve already been floored by this, but in the off chance you missed it here’s another opportunity to snag arguably the best release of 2024. Click on the pic above or this text to go to the review.

The second Out Past the Rings for the Meditations In Affinity split 7” series is here! 100 copies lost! Alternate art! Ninjas! Etc. Watch above and/or listen below. Sold out!!!

Operation X-Ray had another banger of an episode playing Storm{o}, Llewelyn, and Obroa-skai!

---

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: HORSEWHIP = We released the stellar Horsewhip/Yashira split earlier this year and now the band has unleashed their brand new 12”LP and it blows the previous one out of the water. Some lineup changes have resulted in a seriously incredible record.

2022 - 12 - 02 /// Derramar | Querer | Borrar out today!

Massa Nera’s new record is out and available to stream/download/buy via the bandcamp link below. 12”s are moving super fast, cds are gone, and tapes are also very low! Monumental record!

---

Holly Caught A Contact High ‘EP4’ is out! No tapes left save the one to two copies you’ll find pop up for Big Stuff Thing #4 (which we pushed back to later December).

Gallery Six Saltmarsh is the newest release on CanaDave’s Softseed Music label, which is the calm before the storm, as this split from New Zealand/Japan is intoxicating and chill while the next release will be utter chaos (think Naked City).

GALLERY SIX + SALTMARSH - impermanence past time (cassette)

CA$9.00

For fans of: ambient / drone / noise / nature

This release has been sitting/waiting for years. First there was no label. Then were was Covid. Then members had to move countries. Then we had to wait for the tapes. Then we dipped the tapes. Then we shipped the tapes. They took nearly four months to arrive. So now...it is time. All that effort, work, and dedication can be shelved and everyone can bask in the beautiful, soothing, tranquil sounds of New Zealand's SALTMARSH and Japan's GALLERY SIX. Four new songs from each project to bring your brain back out to nature, relax, and smile. 100 tapes spread across the bands and Softseed Music exist, with the label taking 15.

Cassettes /103, 33 green case swirl, 33 orange case swirl, 32 on clear case swirl, and 5 test dips w/matching swirl case, all in a plastic case with j-card and download code. 4 songs by each band.

We sold out of every Fiesta Bizarra tape but have some reserves so I’ve put them up in the store. Every variant except the test dips are available! I also set the digitals to free/donation-based :)

FIESTA BIZARRA - EP (cassette)

from CA$8.00

For fans of: The Mars Volta, The Sound Of Animals Fighting, and Beast Jesus

This is the Peruvian pre-order for FIESTA BIZARRA’s ‘EP’ cassette. All pre-orders will be sent with the band copies to help save shipping costs for you. This pre-order closes on Friday night at 11:59pm PST October 7th, 2022. This shipping price includes shipping straight to your Peru home :) Cassettes expected to arrive in Peru early November.

After releasing some absolutely scorching screamo/emo-violence, the Peruvian six-piece has chilled out and moved into mathy, poppy, emo/rock with a few screamo remnants. This brand new ‘EP’ houses four tracks of ever-evolving, constantly shifting, and ear-pleasing goodness that sounds a bit like a more accessible The Mars Volta with two vocalists. Incredible melodies and harmonies with some seriously twisting instrumentals, this is a very unique release with a very digestable runtime. Releases in full October 31st, 2022.

Cassettes /54, 30 on red/golden swirl, 10 on half red/half white swirl, 10 on half blue/half green, and 5 on red, all in a plastic case with j-card. 4 songs.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: BLUESKIESFADE = This emo/screamo/metallic hardcore band existed around 1998 and released this awesome collection of songs. We’ve got the tapes up in our stores if interested. Very You And I! Click on this text to go to the band’s webpage where you can download all 8 songs for free.

2022 - 10 - 09 /// ...Of Death day!

October 10th at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST is officially …Of Death day! The governments approve! No school! All places of businesses will be closed! Mark in the calendar every year! Too much? Sorry. Seriously stoked on this massive 30-track release from the Fort Worth, Texas band who released from 2000-2003 in the Jeromes Dream, Saetia, Spirit Of Versailles vein. That D-side etching is awesome and shows up on both C/D variants of ghostly/166 and blobbly/168. Co-released with Cliff Parade Records and Law Of Cycles, the latter of which we’ll be selling through our store.

Soul Crusher has a debut EP coming out on Softseed Music on October 19th! Who is behind Soul Crusher? Why it’s Sasha from Life In Vacuum, Kiken, and Congratulations! There was a music video premiered a week or two back (embedded below) and there’s another song premiere dropping before the release, but I figured it’s probably time to show off that primary variant! Opaque red swirl! Woot woot!!!

---

A friendly reminder that we did the double To Be Gentle cassette drop on Friday and you can get ‘Unbroken’ now and pre-order ‘it always hurts and one day it will win’. Just click on this text to head over to the Tomb Tree bandcamp page where you can link to either ZBR store.

Hiding In The Outpost resumes as since the last post I’ve sold out of at least three ZBR titles. Jump on that People’s Temple Project/Sleeper Wave split 12” because I got restocks from Dingleberry but now I’m down to my last copy of that!

now sold out:
Blind Girls ‘Residue’ / Blind Girls ‘The Weight of Everything’ (tapes still available for both!)

PEOPLE'S TEMPLE PROJECT / SLEEPER WAVE - Split (12"LP)

CA$20.00

PEOPLE'S TEMPLE PROJECT / SLEEPER WAVE - Split 12" (ZBR134)

For fans of: Funeral Diner, Snag, Kidcrash and Off Minor.

A split years in the making finally sees the light of day, with two incredible U.S. screamo bands offering up a total of 30 minutes of chill emo all the way to explosive, cathartic, dual vocal screamo. PTP has been releasing for years now and their 7 songs come in as their most mature, atmospheric and epic of all of their material thus far. SW drops 3 new tunes, with two of them being five-minutes plus in length and coming across as even heavier than their earlier Kidcrash/Off Minor jazz/screamo worship. ONLY 1 COPY IN STOCK, ACQUIRED FROM DINGLEBERRY!!!

12” black vinyl/300. 7 songs by PTP and 3 by SW. Download code included.

Operation X-Ray played so many songs from our bands it was a brain-slap. Blue Youth, Venus Twins, Virgin Mother, Works, Fiesta Bizarra, Colacon, and To Be Gentle!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: SOMN = There were some very brief discussions about ZBR releasing the upcoming Somn album and it looks like said record either became a split OR here’s a split and the album is coming later. That first track is absolute fire!
