Emma Goldman’s breakout debut full length ‘all you are is we’ is back on 12”, this time on cornetto (transparent yellow w/red spokes) out of 200. The band has 50 for their upcoming Euro tour as well as another 50 for local shows, and we’ve got the other 100. In the top 10 ZBR releases ever, hands down.

Letterstoyou has their first three releases compiled onto one insane cassette titled ‘a shoebox of letterstoyou’ on May 25th but I’m putting up the leftover ZBR Fest 2026 variant tomorrow (that’s Friday May 22nd!) at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST. There will be about 10 for sale in the US store and the Canada/International store.

Sungaze’s ‘I’m No Longer Afraid of Heights’ releases in full on Friday! To help pass the time until the dreamy shoegaze drops, you can check out the interview with Ivory and Ian on the Ifitbeyourwill podcast. Scope that above and check out the pre-order and singles below!

Orphan Donor’s ‘Ailments’ made Monuments In Ruin’s most recent round-up. Definitely check it out, as it’s truly an experience - both exciting and haunting. Click on the pic above or this text to go to the full article. Jam/buy cds below.

Today’s Last Fucking Copy goes to Respire ‘Gravity and Grace’ 12”LP first pressing on black /100 (aka the rarest of the vinyl variants from this release!). When I was variant collecting for my label I had up to six different variants of this release, and that’s just fucking stupid when you release 500+ things, so someone gets a time machine to 2014-2015 when we dropped this fucking masterpiece. Snag it now (below) or forever hold your peace.

Operation X-Ray continues to play banger after banger, and last week Soastasphrenas, Orphan Donor, and I.O. were played. There will be another new episode tonight on Tuff City Radio!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: MAGE TEARS = I can’t get enough of Nicole’s amazing voice. I loved this project a lot but after seeing her at ZBR Fest I am jamming this shit daily. Can’t wait for the new record!
