ZBR081 Release date: October 1st, 2017
For fans of: Van Johnson, Daniel Striped Tiger and Nouveau
We've been watching TERRY GREEN tear it up for almost half a decade and this 12"LP is the testament to those sweaty, passionate and raw years spent writing an exceptional album of screamy post-hardcore. Housing six basic tracks titled "I" to "VI", the release titled 'LP' will have you screaming, bobbing along or being floored by the band's precision and technical prowess at any given moment. Four awesome people making awesome music. That's why we do this.
12" vinyl on black /200 with insert. Tapes /81 released Aug 8th, 2022 on 44 Terry Is A Terry swirl, 20 Terry Is A ZBR swirl, 10 Terry Is A New Friends Fest 2022 swirl, 5 Terry Testers w/matching swirl case, 1 Terry Is Gold swirl, and 1 Terry Is Silver swirl. 6 songs.

HAWAK ‘nuoc‘ 12"LP (ZB185)
For fans of: Kidcrash, Brahm and Beau Navire
It is time. One of the best screamo records of the last decade is finally upon us! HAWAK’s debut full length was delayed for over a year, but through the fire and the flames it carried on, and is finally available thanks to a proper vinyl pressing from Pirates Press. Technically the second time it's been pressed, first time made available to the screamo masses. Released on 300 gold records via Zegema Beach Records, Left Hand Label, and the band. 10 songs of jangly, noodley screamo goodness from the Bay Area, teeming with struggle, defiance, strength and solidarity. Mixing the band’s previous outfit Matsuri with a bit more Kidcrash and a bit more Loma Prieta, HAWAK’s debut 12”LP is astonishing in both its vision and execution. And the folks that play in the band are just plain dandy. ❤
12” vinyl /300 on marigold (2nd/good run). Includes insert booklet and stickers. 10 songs.
12” vinyl /300 on gold (1st/questionable run) not for sale until the 2nd run sells out.

HUNDREDS OF AU ‘A Briefing on the Human Condition‘ 12"EP (ZBR295)
For fans of: Trainwreck, This Ship Will Sink, and Folly
The very prolific HUNDREDS OF AU released this stellar 5-song EP in late 2021 to much acclaim and now it’s arrived on 45rpm eco-mix 12”s out of 200! Co-released with Protagonist Music, the 12” vinyl contains a blazing-yet-controlled metallic hardcore/screamo fusion from members of You And I, Hell Mary, and The Assistant. Although the balance is obvious on all tracks, songs like “Objective Party” and “Afloat” really showcase an incredible ability to sustain melody and progression whilst retaining power and weight. Easily one of the best EPs of 2021.
12”EP /200 on eco-mix vinyl. Includes insert and sticker. 5 songs.

For fans of: Drive Like Jehu, Blue Youth and Life In Vacuum.
One of the best albums of 2021 despite the recordings being nearly a decade old. An amazing amalgamation of noise rock, punk and a touch of screamo.
12” on black vinyl with a lyric sheet per song. 15 songs.

To Forget had a set that left most people with their jaws open. This band brought their debut LP and just floored everyone with their live rendition including the guitarist/vocalist bending over backward on the monitor. I’d say pick up a 12” but they’re all gone. Here’s some awesomeness from the ZBR Fest Mid-West 2022 Day 1 on June 11th, 2022.
Operation X-Ray played some killer tunes on this week’s episode including our very own Blind Girls and Ensa!
Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: PORTAL TO THE GOD DAMN BLOOD DIMENSION = After finally getting my 12” in the mail I sat down and gave this an undivided, focused listen. Holy fuck.
