This is the sophomore LP from the incredibly hard-working and talented RESPIRE.

RAYLEIGH - 'Last Word' cassetteEP (ZBR154)
For fans of: Itto, Loma Prieta and Mahria.
It seems fitting that we release the final RAYLEIGH release, as we also did their first EP back in the early ZBR days.

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.

BINARY - Commit More Arson 12" (ZBR126)
For fans of: Black Nail, Kiss 2 and SeeYouSpaceCowboy.
This 2018 debut LP was phenomenal, with the 12” version coming the following year. So, we are stoked to present hand-numbered BINARY ‘Commit More Arson’ 12”s on single-sided black vinyl.
12” black vinyl/300. 9 song. Sticker and download code included.

MODERN RIFLES - 'LP + B-Sides' cassetteLP (ZBR141)
For fans of: Blue Youth, Riddle Of Steel and Jimmy Eat World.
Originally released on cd in 2008 minus three key tracks, MODERN RIFLES’ ‘It Was Dark, I Was Young’ LP. Beautifully melodic, frustratingly catchy with enough technical chops to fix your ailing computer woes. They really do their own thing but it’s a mish-mash of mathy emo, pop-punk and indie rock with a splash of post-hardcore. A faster, darker, more complex version of Jimmy Eat World is probably a good comparison.
cassette on green/25 and old computer/25 with different cover and insert variants. 14 songs. Download code included.
CAPE LIGHT - 'A Discography' cassetteEP (ZBR142)
THIS COPY COMES UNWRAPPED!!! LAST COPY!!! Unlikely to be made again!!!!
CAPE LIGHT - 'A Discography' cassetteLP (ZBR142)
For fans of: Loma Prieta, Eyelet and Komuso.
A release forged by pure love, this is the 10-track discography cassette release for Japan’s CAPE LIGHT. Over two EPs and a split with fellow Tokyo screamers 5000, CAPE LIGHT created a mystifying concoction of abrasive noise, devastating hardcore and melodic screamo. These songs were all released in Japan by Adabana Records, thus making it the first time they have been collected and released elsewhere. There are 50 tapes, 40 on smokey grey with 2-sided sparkle covers and another 10 on platinum silver, but they are housed in printed tissue and sealed with silver foil tape. New art by David Norman. Layout by Dave Cullen.
Out of 50 cassettes 40 on smokey grey with 2-sided sparkle covers and 10 on platinum silver with 2-sided sparkle covers wrapped in printed tissue and sealed with silver foil tape. 10 songs. Download code included.

![COARSE - I (7"EP) [alt cover]](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f9e29ee4b0d46ee28f3709/1548826272922-DHHO431FU79YQKHO3F86/image-asset.jpeg)
COARSE - I 7"EP (ZBR124.2)
For fans of: Norma Jean, Botch and Vein.
Mathy metalcore straight from the womb of Norma Jean. COARSE are an intense and pummeling onslaught from drummer/vocalist Brandon (ex-Old Wounds) and guitarist/vocalist Ryan (ex-Capsize) and this is their absolutely ridiculous debut 7"EP, complete with six phenomenal mindfucks. All pre-orders from ZBR come with a free COARSE sticker and Zegema Beach Records sticker.
7" vinyl on black /320 with alternate Japan tour champagne pearl sparkle foldover jacket (#/20). Download code included. 6 tracks.
