I know who is on Thorp for obvious reasons. And I know who is on B9 because I follow their message board. But who the fuck is signed to Victory and/or
Epitaph these days? Are those labels still happening? Do they have big bands?
I guess I still follow Hell-Cat too. Not their releases because (aside from Rancid) they haven't released a good record in as long as I can remember
but at least I remain aware of who they sign. thedog - 8-31-2009 at 10:49 PM
Deathwish is probably the label I follow the most closely. With an active lineup including Hope Con, Killing The Dream, Rise and Fall, and now
Starkweather, they've got my attention.Mark Lind - 8-31-2009 at 10:53 PM
I've heard OF fourteen of those bands. I've heard seven of them. Most of those seven were by accidentally playing a show with the bands. And about
three of them were studio recordings. BDx13 - 8-31-2009 at 10:58 PM

Heard OF 16
Actually heard 5 (Comeback Kid, Freya, Path of Resistance, Ringworm, Tossers).
Own albums from and actually dig 1, Ringworm.DaveMoral - 9-1-2009 at 12:23 AM
Wait a minute... there are other record labels?random - 9-1-2009 at 05:12 AM
i used to pay attention to GMM and Street Anthem since both put out some good stuff. the only existing label i can think of other than Thorp/SGR that
i ever pay any attention to is I-Scream. they just put out the new Reno Divorce, which is one of the best unknown bands going. bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 05:15 AM
I tend to know most of the bands on most labels but dislike them greatly. I could pick maybe 3 bands from every label that are good. The rest are
total cockwipe. XHonusWagnerX - 9-1-2009 at 06:24 AM
I've heard of 9 of the bands on that Victory page, but only herad music from 6 of them....
VooDoo Glow Skulls (I liked them 10 years ago in my ska-core phase)
Path of Resistance (I like the ultra sXe novelty aspect)
Otep (I like the older stuff)
Carnifex (I like some of what I've heard)
Comeback Kid (I saw them live, but dont like them)
Ringworm (I'm not a huge fan, but I like them)

Deathwish - Rot In Hell LP coming soon to save all of us from oursleves.

i do dig Creepshow who just signed to Hellcat...other than that...nothing coming to mind bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 07:45 AM
Hellcat have fuck all decent bands but have a great presence and image for promoting bands. ChadBeantown - 9-1-2009 at 09:43 AM
There are some good bands on Haunted Town Records. I am looking forward to the new Brassknuckle Boys!! And they are re-releasing some Naked Raygun

I hadn't heard that. I love The Creepshow, glad to see them sign to a decent label.bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 10:39 AM
I was chasing Hellcat for a while for the crewDave - 9-1-2009 at 10:41 AM
victory heard OF 8
like 2

People Like You Records has a decent line up....but they have a few releases that I thought were SGR listed as their own. Dead Moons Calling, We Are
the Problem, and Sweet Misery.BDx13 - 9-1-2009 at 11:06 AM
PLY licensed many of the SGR albums for European release. So yes, it is a little confusing if you look at their site and see all the same albums.
But those are only available to Europeans.
Similarly, we licensed Mad Sin from them for release here in the US.bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 11:26 AM
People like you have The Grit dont they? Probably the best UK band going in the "rockin" genre at the moment. New record is fuckin dick hardening
good. bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 11:40 AM
all of those guys all work in the studio where my bands practice.
good guys for sure. and the singer was in byker grove!bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 11:55 AM
Fuck off! BYKKAAAA GROOOOAAAHHHHHVEEEE
Who was he? Holy shit!! This is news to me!
But yeah, the Grit are savage good. mattybar - 9-1-2009 at 12:01 PM
yeah man straight up!
i can't remember the name as he wasn't a major character.
just did a search and can't see him in any of the pics but trust me he was on it.
if you ask him about it he's generally cool about it too.
the 12bar, where i do my monthly gigs, is part of the same complex as the studio and the alley where you see them playing in on their myspace is where
i spend a fair amount of my evenings.
i remember them setting up and playing out there one night so you had hardcore bands inside the bar and then them lot outside doing acoustic johhny
cash covers.bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 12:22 PM
Sounds deadly man. Give bulls a shout for one of your monthlys at some stage. We need to get over to your side again soon.
mattybar - 9-1-2009 at 12:25 PM
we are looking pretty busy for the rest of the year but yous are welcome next year mate.
(i'm fairly certain we had this exact conversation about a year ago!)
but it's the first saturday of each month. let me know when is good for you with as much notice as possible and i will get it hooked up.bombidol - 9-1-2009 at 12:35 PM
