2024 - 12 - 10 /// Coup D'etat release + show on Friday

Is Canada Post still on strike? You betcha. Most Canadian store orders and some Bandcamp orders simply cannot go out until it ends. We apologize for any inconvenience but it’s out of our hands. The one thing we can do is ship via FedEx but the costs are much higher, so if you need something by a certain date and don’t mind paying extra just hit up CanaDave at zegemabeachrecords@gmail.com and he’ll let you know the new shipping quote.

Febuary cds came again. And then they went. Sold out in about an hour. We’ll make more, as well as tapes, and be sure that they’ll be ready for early May. Cuz…nevermind ;)

On Friday Coup D’etat releases their debut album ‘What Happens After the Epilogue…’ on Tomb Tree, and they’ve also got a release show with CanaDave’s Mourn Recif band, so we’ll have tapes and ZBR distro at the show! You can scope a new song from each band in the 157th Operation X-Ray radio show embedded below!

2024 - 12 - 04 /// Febuary round two on Friday!

Is Canada Post still on strike? You betcha. So that means that most of Bandcamp and this store’s orders just can’t ship out. Once that gets settled I’ll blast all these waiting boxes outta here so fuckin’ fast. I promise.

We’ve got some goodies to close out 2024 including a second run of Febuary cds, ‘What Happens After the Epilogue…’ cassettes from Coup D’etat, a limited Die Princess Die discography tape, the GreenBlueGrey + Black Nails/Sharp Teeth split tape, and the 24th installment of the Zampler with a sac fulla unreleased jams and spectacular cuts! Oh happy d…month!!!

2024 - 11 - 27 /// Gxllium! round two on Thursday!

Okay what’s the good word? Well…first bad news, Canada Post strike still going strong and the government hasn’t met their demands so I reckon most Canada store + Bandcamp orders won’t be moving again this week, but with a month till the holiday I am more optimistic than I would be any other time of the year.

Mason and Hellena from Senza did a podcast together with Rob and Elias of Not Just A Phase!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: MÁU = Ex-Hawak, this band has been kickin’ ass on the west coast for awhile now, and this debut EP is incredible. We’ll have 10”s for these when they finish at the plant!!! Spring 2025 I reckon.

2024 - 11 - 19 /// Canada Post on strike + good news

Canada Post is on strike. This means Canada store (aka this store) and most of the Bandcamp orders literally cannot ship out until it is resolved. The good news here is if you place multiple orders over the strike’s duration I can combine your orders and refund you some shipping after the gears get movin’ again. This is totally out of our hands, so please have some patience. U.S.A. store orders will continue to go out and they ship internationally too!!! Click on this text to go to the US store.

Fingerswoventogether released on Friday and we’ve blown through most of the tapes already. This store has a handful and the US store has a couple, but Bandcamp copies are sold out. Links to both stores are at the bottom of the Bandcamp page and cost less than those sold out copies anyways. Such a wicked debut EP!!!

Oh shit I found one extra copy of the 1st run…embedded below!
