25% off, Reverie + Pùt Purana out, Athousandangelsandseven on Monday!

January 25, 2025 by David Norman

First things first, it’s CanaDave’s birthday today so being in a pretty positive place let’s do 25% off this Canadian store for the rest of the weekend! Not only that, but you’ll get a handwritten thank you note with a unique/weird/obtuse story about a time in Dave’s past. I can’t apply a discount to the bandcamp page but if you order something there you will also get the note and a free 7” record with vinyl orders OR a free tape with cassette orders. The discount code is “DIEALREADY”

Reverie + Pùt Purana just released their new split digitally on Tomb Tree with 12”s coming in February. We don’t have a date for that yet but stay tuned here and you’ll know a week ahead of time :) Awesome Italian screamo, equally driving and playful. Check out a video of Reverie’s full side above!

Athousandangelsandseven releases on Monday! The four-song self-titled cassette EP variants are above, with the full release going down at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. Only 50 tapes were made so expect this to sell out rather quickly!!! Jam their new music video for “Clipped Wings” below!

The Daves of Zegema Beach consulted on their Best of 2024 podcast via OMSB! Listen/download it below for a phenomenal way to find new/amazing bands. Click on this text for the full post with a few additional links.

2024 - 02 - 05 /// ZBR Fest pre-show + single day tickets!

February 05, 2024 by David Norman

ZBR Fest pre-show bands released and tickets for it (as well as single-day tickets for the full fest, linked in the picture below). Good lord I’m so excited! Click on this text to snag the pre-show tickets.

Pettersson has a pre-order and two songs premiering this Wednesday February 8th! We’ll only have 30 copies for North America and the album is incredible, so I don’t expect we’ll have them around for long. Full release is in March, but you can jam the Zampler song premiere from last summer below.

Volp’s ‘Vortex’ releases tomorrow Tuesday February 6th but you can jam two songs now! Full spread above! Fans of The Minor Times, Engineer, Ken Mode, and Horsewhip will adore.

CanaDave got back to the Out Past the Rings and did one for Boneflower’s ‘A(r)mour’ cassette. Check it out above, snag the last two copies of the tape (one linked here) and the other is on the Bandcamp, linked below.

US Dave filmed/edited this new Frail Body music video along with our resident ZBR Fest film crew Wyatt. New album soon.

Operation X-Ray played some heaters on their radio show including Tristan Tzara and Nuvolascura!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: SWEETHEART = This Ohio band unearthed an album and a 12-minute song that were released just a few days back! Hell to the yes!!!

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

February 02, 2024 by David Norman

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.

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.

Volp’s ‘Vortex’ releases on Tuesday February 6th but you can jam two songs now! Above is the promo pic with the primary swirl variant and the rare /5 smokey brown.

Horseboy tapes are being finished up with stamping today and will 100% be ready to ship in both stores on it’s February 20th release on Tomb Tree. Check out CanaDave’s interview with Matt Perrin of said band, Big Water, Joust, Leg Yield, etc. by clicking on the pic above, this text, or just listen away down below.

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.)!!! Click on this text or the pic above to go to the entire article.

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!

September 28, 2023 by David Norman

For the next 24 hours this Canada/International store (yes it also ships to the U.S.) is having a 50% off everything sale!!! The half-off is applied with the Promo code of “FIDDYOFF” during checkout and will end at 8:59am PST on September 29th aka when the new Vibora 12” is released. Jam a jam below!

Vibora’s ‘Zaldi Beltza’ 12”LP releases in full tomorrow and we can’t say enough good things about it. If that previous track didn’t turn your head with it’s chugs, panic chords, and screams, then try “Dana” below, a much more expansive track that brings to mind bands like Boneflower, Descubriendo A Mr. Mime, and Altair.

Operation X-Ray played a ton of bangers including our own Riversleem and Niboowin!!! Woot effin’ woot.

Victoria BC’s Hillsboro and their debut 12”LP caught CanaDave so much that he had two of the members on the OMSB Podcast. Twas a really fun time! Def check out that album!!! Click this text or picture above to go to the post/podcast and jam the album below.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: OPHELIAC = Ophelia from Burial Etiquette released this incredible album and has another in the works!!!
