2024 - 03 - 13 /// Little Big Stuff Thing this Saturday!

Okay so we’ve been hanging on to some backup copies in case the postal service fucked anyone, and as everything has arrived safely we can unlock those copies of very sold out stuff. On Saturday March 16th the Canada store will have their Little Big Stuff Thing, with the US version being held at the ZBR Fest 2024 Record Fair for those that miss out on the initial BST or are lucky enough to make the trek to rifle through the bins in person. This also enables people not attending the fest to actually snag something from this most recent Big Stuff Thing. Apart from the Test press raffle (info below) we’ll have Onewaymirror, Tristan Tzara handmades, Congratulations handmades, a single Senza, a few Blind Girls, Orchid 12”s, a swirled Gifts From Enola tape boxset, Euclid C Finder’s final cassette copy, a small stack of Burial Etiquette/Mis Suenos splits, a buncha screamo t-shirts, etc. This goes down on:

SATURDAY March 16th, 2024 @9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST

The Test press raffle product is live and closes at 9am PST when the Big Stuff Thing tab goes live, and includes shipping costs as if you don’t win a test I’ll just send you a ZBR 12”, therefore no one actually loses, you just might not win a test. This enables customers to pick up some rare shit too from the Little Big Stuff Thing and then I can refund your shipping difference if you’ve taken part in the test press raffle. Included are some test presses of records that won’t be out for months (Terry Green, Niboowin, Gossip, etc.)!

2023 - 04 - 05 /// Hetta premiere + Life's demo 3

Been a busy few days! Holy shit. The Vault is already shipping and Zaffle winners being contacted by the end of tonight via email about their shipping (a few have already been shipped off as well). Thanks for your patience as I navigate shipping 100 orders/winners whilst taking care of two small children. Everything will be out the door by Monday April 10th!

Life’s ‘Demo 3’ is upon us, with both stores having copies of this mammoth 12”LP. 180+ grams of orange deliciousness by way of very unique, epic, incredible, emo/screamo. Seriously, this 3rd demo has yet to be topped in our opinion, but ‘coma garden’ came pretty dang close. Full release of 250 orange 12”s on Friday April 7th (that’s Bandcamp Friday!) at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. Promo pics coming tomorrow!

Massa Nera did a massive interview with DIY Conspiracy where they discussed each track in detail. Definitely worth a read, and the album is definitely worth picking up! Click on this text or the pic above to go to the interview.

MASSA NERA - Derramar | Querer | Borrar (tape/cd/12")

from CA$10.75

MASSA NERA ‘Derramar | Querer | Borrar‘ tape/cd/12" (ZBR310)

For fans of: Envy, City Of Caterpillar, Kodan Armada, and Kidcrash

Screamo is a strange concept. It was birthed under different names, then bastardized, it learned to walk, and has since been the lead of my life. It’s such a special thing that when people and bands really embrace the concept it lights up another bulb in the basement that is screamo history. New Jersey quartet MASSA NERA have fully embraced this for years, to the point of making a cocoon and transforming themselves into something new. The chrysalis opens December 2nd, 2022 and resembles something akin to City Of Caterpillar meets Kidcrash with the urgency of Crowning. Opener “An Endless Cycle“ is a whopping 7:27 of controlled chaos, gorgeous transitions and epic builds while “Tristeza Consume” and “Eyeless Faces” are unforgiving flames. Standout track “Shapeshift“ shows the band first at their heaviest/fastest followed by a five-minute electronic/dub-step interlude that raises the entire record up an additional pedestal. Realizing the importance and general amazingness of this album, Zegema Beach has teamed up with the band to bring you over 500 12”s across three variants, 200 tapes across seven variants, and 100 cds. Each media has a very different feel with different art, different color patterns, and different inserts/extras. One of the most critical screamo releases ever.

12” /500 = 100 on white, 150 on seafoam, and 250 on splatter, all with obi-strip and 32-page lyric booklet. 12 songs.

cassettes /200 = 50 grey, 50 frosty, 20 green swirl, 20 blue swirl, 20 maroon swirl, 20 black/white swirl, and 20 test dips, all with fold-out lyric pamphlet and two-sided j-card.

cds /100 = each comes with an obi-strip
