2023 - 06 - 30 /// Zampler #21

Zampler #21 ‘He’s Not Worth It’ is officially out on bandcamp. 30 tracks, 11 of which are previously unreleased, all fire. Please check it out and share it if you like it. New tracks from the likes of Obroa-skai, Atameo, Dear Diary This Is My Teenage Angst To My Adult Self, Riversleem, Vibora, Pettersson, Neuman Portentum, Othiel, In Loving Memory, Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow, and New Forms. Christ what a list.

Sunday is the Neuman Portentum release. ‘God Monster’ was recorded more than 20 years ago and all of the songs never even saw the light of day. After a band member’s passing, the rest of the group contacted us in hopes of releasing the entire thing remixed and remastered. It’s fucking incredible. Imagine Ruhaeda meets The Flying Worker and you’re already there! Will there be mages? You fuckin’ betcha. 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST on Sunday July 2nd.

In Loving Memory released their new song and music video for title track “A Gentler Sun” which releases in full July 21st on Zegema Beach. You can find this ridiculous comeback song on the new Zampler as well.

Excrucis released their debut self-titled album on Tomb Tree this morning. Truly excellent, confident, progressive screamo from Chicago featuring members of Nouveau, Not For You, Wrestle Crow, and Yail.

Notice that Atameo cover of Coma Regalia on the new Zampler? Well that’s taken from an upcoming Coma Regalia covers compilation releasing fall 2023 on ZBR. All proceeds will go to help Edie Quinn of Coma/Middle Man Records/10+ other bands and their family following a rough few years.

The most emotional set by far was that of Coma Regalia’s, as at that point Edie’s child was waiting for a much-needed transplant (which he has since received, hooray!) so everyone’s thoughts were with her family. Excellent set. Excellent humans. Edie even did the art for the new Zampler! We will continue posting the single videos for each band that played ZBR Fest 2023 in the order that they played, so there’s more coming!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: ONEWAYMIRROR + BURIAL ETIQUETTE = Our homies in BE just released a new split and it’s incredible!

2023 - 06 - 27 /// Distro Drop pushed back to 6/28

First and foremost, the distro drop has been pushed back 24 hours because, simply put, we have so much stuff to update. What do we have going up? Well a bunch of restocks, but looking next to me here I see vinyl by Telos, Osmorg, Flowers Taped To Pens, Reka, Resurrectionists, Shirokuma, Graf Orlock, Sweat, Dangers, Moxiebeat, Gros Enfants Mort, Barabbas Du Förtappade, Whane, etc. and tapes from Botfly, New Friends Fest, Un Automne De Plus, Life In Vacuum, Joliette, etc. and the full cd split series from Post Marked Stamps/Blue Post Snowmanz…you know, the ones with Burial Etiquette, We Are On Fire, Pyre, etc. 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm PST on Wednesday June 28th!!! Both stores!

We announced our involvement with Othiel via the music video premiere that went down yesterday. 12”s should be in hand this fall to release with the entire full length. Seriously, this band is incredible and we’re still in disbelief that they weren’t on our radar before submitting the LP to us!

Be on the lookout for a brand spankin’ new Lower Automation video tomorrow!

Terry Green couldn’t make the 2022 fest because the Canadian passport office was generally drunk and untrustworthy. Luckily we got their sexy Canadian asses on the 2023 fest and they did not disappoint. Showcasing their signature sound and expanding it with new/unreleased songs, it was a fucking treat for everyone there. We will continue posting the single videos for each band that played ZBR Fest 2023 in the order that they played, so there’s more coming!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: GRAF ORLOCK = The band’s final 7” was released a few days back and it’s incredible! We’ll have just a few copies in stock tomorrow for the massive distro update!
