2023 - 04 - 26 /// Carrion Spring falls :(
To those who know vocalist Adam in Carrion Spring this probably comes as little surprise, but the band has had to pull out of this year’s fest due to the health issues and the fact that the band was unable to practice for over a month. We are super sad but completely understand their circumstances and hope we can bring them to Chicago in the future <3 <3 <3
We’ve had some requests already to replace them, but as the day was actually overbooked this unfortunate circumstance has a silver lining where we now have the “correct” amount of bands. Thanks to anyone who inquired about playing, it’s an incredible reception this year. We are so fucking stoked.
Apostles Of Eris is set to play their first show in 7 fucking years, and the first as a full band. We’ll be performing “Pig Donovan” from this split that was just smeared across all platforms. A little late? You betcha!
You will be seeing a lot of tour posters from bands playing ZBR Fest popping up here in case you are in the path of destruction. This mini-Malevich tour will be sure to ruin your fucking life. Just some of the heaviest shit I’ve ever seen. Here they are blowing my mind at ZBR Fest 2019. Buy tickets here.
Today’s Hiding In the Outpost (aka our last copy of something):

Sometime in the mid-2000s David Norman came across the band LOFTUS and their immortal cd ‘Hugs and Drugs’. Hmmm… that isn’t really strong enough. David Norman became utterly obsessed with the California five-piece. And guess what? It never stopped, subsided, slowed, or even flickered. To this day the obsession continues on 500 stunning 12” records by Zegema Beach Records which release on Friday May 13th, 2022. Myspace madness, metallic hardcore style for fans of panic chords, breakdowns, and unrelenting screams. Released with variant matching inserts across 546 12”s by the absolute legends at Wax Mage / Gotta Groove:
211 Clear w/Orange Pigment Swirl
208 Bright Yellow w/Opaque Blue Splatter (handmade)
102 Black
25 Wax Mage
15 Test Presses
We also had 15 Loftus slipmats made, 10 with the logo and 5 radial.
There will be a super limited amount of zip-ups going up in June. Keep your eyes peeled.
