Concealer

March 12, 2026 by David Norman

In less than 24 hours we will put up half of our Concealer 12”LP copies as a pre-order, so on Friday March 13th at 12pm PST / 2pm CST / 3pm EST be sure to drop in and pick one up before they sell out. Their will be the third and final single accompanying the pre-order, with 12”s already en route to our US store from the plant. Full release is March 30th!!!

Soastaphrenas ‘Eris’ releases in full tomorrow on Tomb Tree, 12”s expected to be in hand and shipping come April. I’ll post pics of the release after it’s out in the next news post. Be warned this features Alex of Spoiled so expect some crazy shit - and it’s fucking awesome. Jam the last single below!

Both stores got a Distro update featuring a few key recent Dog Knights releases (although some have already sold out) as well as some test presses, and a bunch of ZBR USA updates with stuff that wasn’t previously in the store including a ton of Softseed Music releases. You can link to the stores below:

USA store

Canada/International store

My good friends in Hillsboro were a no-brainer to ask to play the fest, and upon seeing their new material (embedded above) last weekend I was like…goddamn, shit’s getting heavy. So Today’s ZBR Fest 2026 Profile Feature is for this ever-evolving band from Victoria. You can also see Nima from Hillsboro kicking ass in Wollruss alongside CanaDave. Click on this text to go to the live show review with videos from all the bands and/or watch the show recap video below!

Tickets available here!

Horns Up gave their premium selection of recent releases and our own Vibora made the list along with blurbs about Gravess and Sear. You can scope the list by clicking on the pic above or this text while Sear is linked below and Vibora is further down this news post.

Daris King from Clout Funeral (guitar/vox) was on the most recent Everything Remade podcast with Edie so you should give it a scope! Lots of interesting info in there and the ‘For Pepper…’ EP rules, which you can listen to and buy a tape of below.

Lucidity has a music video from Poorly Crafted Music Videos that caught the attention of Unsigned Showcoase which then played/reacted to it. You can see the showcase above and just watch the video on its own below. The Lucidity split with Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow can be accessed by clicking on this text.

The second Pure Antifascist Scrub on Toilet OV Hell rounded up a bunch of sick releases including our very own Limbs, Biological Fathers, Clout Funeral, and Vibora! Holy shit too much good stuff. Click on the pic above or this text for the full list, and snag the Biological Fathers cd below!

Vibora 12”s are still en route but we’ll post pics of them once they arrive, until then here’s a wicked review of ‘Egin ez dugun guztia’ by Rock Sound. Will the stream of constant/great reviews for this band ever end? (i hope not) Go to the article by clicking on the pic above or this text. Jam/buy below.

I couldn’t help but notice that we have just one copy of the Ditch Organ lathe 7”s left for ‘A Rapid Flicker of Light’, as this was a rare order for us and the material is incredible - you should definitely hop on that shit! And that, my friends, is today’s Last Fucking Copy. This shall not be repressed. Snag it below or forever hold your peace.

DITCH ORGAN - A Rapid Flicker Of Light (cassette/7" lathe)

from CA$10.00

DITCH ORGAN ‘A Rapid Flicker Of Light’ cassette/7” lathe EP (TTT052)

For fans of: Thumbscrew, The Chariot and Fawn Limbs.

The debut EP from Eeli (Fawn Limbs) and Ian (Micro Colossal) aka DITCH ORGAN is like watching the highlights from a horror movie separated by short acid trips. 5 songs in just 7 minutes, the race through chaos and orchestrated destruction is reminiscent of Thumbscrew, Machinist, The Chariot in their venomous, unrestrained and violent interpretation of breakneck metallic hardcore. This release is the catalyst for pushing Tomb Tree Tapes into new territory, as we are dumping the “Tapes” from our name as we don’t want to limit ourselves. Therefore you’ll find this stellar release on both cassette and 7” lathe. The marble swirl tapes are housed (primarily) in paper bags with the center burned out and the lyric insert/cover behind it. Lathes are double sided stereo 7”s, 25 clear and 25 black.

Lathes /50, 25 clear and 25 black. Tapes /55, 28 on Organic Light swirl in white bag, 12 on Mold Death swirl in blue bag, 10 Rose Death swirl in brown bag, and 5 test dips in silver bag, all w/cover+lyric sheet. 5 songs.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: ROSEMARY NODS UPON THE GRAVE = This band has a new EP (following their split 7” with Heaven Through Violence of which we have just a handful left) that you should definitely check out!

2026 - 3 - 09 /// Carrion Spring released x Distro update on Wednesday!

March 09, 2026 by David Norman

Carrion Spring released on Friday in all its glory! Years and years of friendship, planning, recording, life, and a whole lot more went into this phenomenal full length ‘Those We’ve Lost and Continue to Lose’ which was recorded by Kurt Ballou at Atomic Garden Studios! Jam/buy it below and make sure you come see them at both the ZBR Fest 2026 pre-show and main fest.

Also this week, there’s a new distro drop on Wednesday that will include some key Dog Knights releases (Journal, Beau Navire, State Faults, etc.) then a Concealer 12” pre-order on Friday…what a week!

Today’s ZBR Fest 2026 Profile Feature is for Csilla’s Star Is Gone which features members of Coup D’etat, A Recorded Dawn, Mourn Recif, Wollruss, Bathtub Autopsy, and Hospice (to name a few lol) so there’s probably no better way to open ZBR Fest 2026 at the pre-show on May 1st, 2026 at Big Fernwood in Victoria on Vancouver Island. I saw them play their first show this past weekend and it was badass. They are the fist band in the video below, but you can also scope A Recorded Dawn and Hillsboro who are also playing the fest! Click on the pic above to buy tickets and this text to go to the live show review with videos from all the bands!

Rosemary Nods Upon The Grave did an interview with Cinepunx that you should definitely scope. We’re down to literally a handful of split 7” copies with Heaven Through Violence so please snag that before you regret it, as their new EP was just released so there’s no way these last through the year. Click on the pic above or this text to go to the interview, jam/buy below.

US Dave’s all-star band Biological Fathers got a writeup from the always reliable This Noise Is Ours. CDs have mostly all shipped out but the Canada/International orders leave later today/tomorrow as the box arrives at the Canada store this afternoon. Click on the pic above or this text for the review, jam/buy below!

Dagerman’s new album releases March 20th and they just dropped another single from the album! I’ve been jamming this daily and it’s an awesome album with more beef than the previous album (which is also amazing, let’s be real). You can jam Oltre below! 12”s should be in hand for the release!!!

Limbs and Vibora made Everything Is Noise’s February round-up for good reason. Find out why below! For the full list click on the pic above or this text.

Vibora’s ‘Egin ez dugun guztia’ got a big ole 9/10 on Science Of Noise in Rock Magazine! This album is getting nothing but mad praise and I absolutely love it. Click on the pic above or this text to read the review. Jam/buy the 12” below.

Oh my god the day is finally here! Another decade-plus release is down to it’s last copy!!! This Montreal band ended up creating Yearning and Carcajou, two bands that ZBR are big fans of, but this release is more like Envy, Sed Non Satiata, and Amanda Woodward. There’s a sick video of them playing the Congratulations EP release show back in 2014 embedded above (make sure you get to that sweet sauce at 2:20+). And that, my friends, is today’s Last Fucking Copy. This shall not be repressed. Snag it below or forever hold your peace.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: YURODIVY = Ooooo baby they’re back after 5 long years! Two new songs at name your price.

2026 - 2 - 20 /// Vibora released in full!

February 20, 2026 by David Norman

Vibora’s new 12”LP ‘Egin Ez Dugun Guztia’ is out in full! Be sure to check it out, as it mixes the heaviness of Crossed with the melodic control of Boneflower. The vinyl is done but hasn’t shipped to us yet, so I think we’ll have’em and get them all out the door by the end of March. The stripe variant has turned into a tri-color due to heat…stuff. I dunno, that’s what the plant told us. Regardless, it’s sick!

With ZBR Fest 2026 about two-and-a-half months away, let’s take a second dip into the second ZBR Fest 2026 Profile Feature. I don’t feel like Victoria BC’s A Recorded Dawn gets enough love, but maybe that’s because I get to see them every months. Their most recent split with Mourn Recif and their Zampler #25 contribution show the band’s evolution into dark, atmospheric screamo not unlike Ostraca, Infant Island, and Ambretta. Very stoked to have them playing the main fest with a buncha sick new material that’ll definitely turn a lot of heads, so come early! Click on this text to go to ZBRUSA.com

Hillsboro finally has a new song out (and music video) from their forthcoming lengthy EP this spring. Check out the video above and there’s a link to previous EP below. Wicked post-hardcore/shoegaze/alternative from Victoria!

Everything Remade had ma boyee Jesse Mowery from Biological Fathers (and Our Future Is An Absolute Shadow, and Apostles Of Eris, and Majorel, and In Wolves’ Clothing, and…you get the idea) on and you should def give it a listen, as well as peep/buy the debut EP from the all-star band featuring members of Crowning, Frail Body, Eyelet, and New Grass!

Limbs got an extensive review from the always reliable This Noise Is Ours. We still got some tapes left of this final release by this Filipino band. Epic, experimental, fire that fans of Majority Rule, (early) WristMeetRazor, and Beast Jesus. Click on the pic above or this text for the review. Jam/buy below.

Magana was on Chapman Radio and did a four-song live video! Jeni is exceptionally talented and CanaDave has been releasing her stuff on Softseed so check out the video above and the newest release below!

Today’s Last Fucking Copy goes to the third Meditations In Affinity four-way split 7” ‘Solicitude’ featuring our very own Emma Goldman (with an exclusive track, no less) another really early Zibbur release (number 39 to be exact) which is the Secret Smoker x Alarms And Controls split 7”. This won’t be repressed as I don’t think either band is even active anymore. Snag now or forever hold your peace below. Watch the band play “Code Produced Comfort” above at ZBR Fest 2019!!!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: NO TRUCKS OVER SEVENTY-FIVE HUNDREDS POUNDS x IT NEVER ENTERED MY MIND = Sick new split on BSDJ, scope it!!!

2026 - 2 - 16 /// Mercy Necromancy's 'Cruel' released on vinyl!

February 16, 2026 by David Norman

Mercy Necromancy’s ‘Fallen’ and ‘Cruel’ EPs are now housed on one vinyl 12”! Softseed Music made 111 of these so please go check it out and snag one if you like Dollanganger, Grimes, Del Rey, Cain, etc. Minimal instrumentals under the voice of an angel.

Well shit ZBR Fest is getting pretty goddamned close. So let’s go through the bands playing, shall we? We’ll call this the ZBR Fest 2026 Profile Feature. Yeah, that only took like 10 minutes to think up, lol.

For years Massa Nera was the ZBR Fest mainstay, but after they had to pull out of 2024’s fest it’s been The Caution Children who have taken up the mantle. Bringing everyone together in the best possible way, these Florida all-stars were phenomenal in both 2024 (linked here) and 2025 (embedded above), so it was a no-brainer giving these dudes the ZBR Fest title and inviting them back for a third year in a row.

We are super excited to announce the release of Carrion Spring’s new album ‘Those We Have Lost And Continue To Lose’ which will drop on March 6th, 2026! The 12” vinyl /250 are on the way to us and should be in hand a week before the release so we’ll have some nice pics for ya as soon as possible. Jam a new jam below. More info soon!!!

ZBR is releasing the next Dagerman 12”LP ‘Di fronte a noi il nulla’ on March 20th. The first single “Caino” is available to stream/download above. Wicked Italian screamo, baby! We have some 12”s from their debut LP below if you wanna scope. For fans of La Quiete, Raein, Ojne, etc.

Soastaphrenas’ second single is upon us. This band is ex-Spoiled and kicks serious ass whilst also charting new territory. Exciting stuff! Full release is likely early April and Tomb Tree will have 30 copies.

Maximum Rock’n’Roll had Sutras make their list (Zuzanna’s list) which is sick, but I honestly don’t know ANY of the other bands lol. I’m in the screamo dungeon, baby. Tapes still available below. Click on the pic above or this text to go to the full list.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: WITH ONE EXCEPTION x CHIGAKI DEATH METRO = This split is great, the first half is dirty/chunky and the second half is sick emo-violence.

2026 - 2 - 13 /// ZBR Fest 2026 tickets are live + Carrion Spring 12"!

February 13, 2026 by David Norman

ZBR Fest lineup announced and tickets are live! The cap on this year’s fest in Vancouver is less than 200 so we’re looking at a pretty intimate time. Tickets are going fast, get’em at zbrfest.com

Our next big ZBR-only release is the next Carrion Spring full length 12” titled ‘those we’ve lost and continue to lose’ and it releases in full on March 6th, 2026 via 250 records. We won’t spoil the variant but it looks pretty fucking sick. You can scope the music video for “Pocket Full of Poseurs” from the album below!

Vi Som Alskade Varandra Sa Mycket’s debut 12”LP is finally back in press thanks to Moment Of Collapse and yours truly (but mostly Moment Of Collapse) as we only have 30 copies spread across our three stores. Phenomenal post-everything screamo from Sweden featuring a member of The Khayembii Communique.

CanaDave had a podcast with Mercy Necromancy right before a special surprise which happens on Monday. If you like ethereal, dreamy, dark-yet-beautiful singer/songwriter stuff you will fall in love with this artist (like I did!) and therefore you should buy a 12” copy of ‘Fallen’ before they’re all gone. All links in the full podcast post can be accessed by this text.

Today’s Last Fucking Copy goes to ZBR006, one of the very first releases we did. I think we did like 600+ 7”s and immediately afterward Germany’s Amber broke up and these vinyl just sat around. Now it’s more than a decade after it’s release and I’m down to the final copy. Snag now or forever hold your peace.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: LONELYISANEYESORE = Wicked new EP from this band on Vamonos Records!
