Coming on the heels of a busy 2017-18, where one four-song demo galvanized numerous shows, numerous tours, and numerous fests, "Hell Is" is an indisputable reaffirmation of the Diztort that everyone has come to know and love. Far from some attempt at soul-searching or self-discovery, the band has doubled-down on what Matt LaForge wrote was "a wretched sound of geographical and existential isolation," a masterful stew of traditional '80s NYHC with the metallic aspects of the '90s. Diztort is a band that walks alone, stands alone, and holds its own place in 2018's hardcore lineage; "Hell Is," by extension, needs no brother, family, or precedent.

Thrash crossover hardcore metal mayhem from members of UKHC The Flex, Big Cheese and Bitter Youth.

4th EP from this raging hardcore punk band from NY. The first press comes housed in an extremely sick four colour screenprinted sleeve with artwork by Alex Heir, lyric insert and handstamped centre labels.

These back to back belters reference the style of hardcore punk that calls out in bloody protest, harkening Insane Youth’s ‘Not Give a Damn’ and Anti-Cimex’s ‘Scandinavian Jawbreaker’. The dogs snarl without mercy or respite offering soaring solos, a bleak outlook, a big bass tone and pummelling drums. Over exhilarating guitar density and hoarse bark, Jellicoe and Woodbury chase, dismantle, and advocate obliteration of mankind.

Jellicoe and Woodbury are the twin dogs of Doubt and Fear, a poetic interpretation of James Joyce’s 'Ulysses', where dogs seemingly are ready to attack at any moment, based on Joyce’s well known fear of dogs. Doubt and Fear channel 'Ulysses' through a Bastard ‘Wind of Pain’ like lens. These self-created monsters use capitalism to keep us afraid to really move forward in life, and scared to connect with each other. They chase us back and 'breath down our neck’.

Recorded in Toronto by some weathered but familiar statues in the Toronto punk community. To compliment the style, as well as the in depth and swirling world of these characters, legendary Japanese hardcore punk artist Sugi has manifested these two dramatic tracks for the front cover of the record. 

Second 7" from Stages in Faith, one of the best UK Post Punk bands going. After a stellar debut 7" on Quality Control HQ Records, Stages in Faith return with the 7" single 'Same Craic / Floodlights'. Expect more exquisitely crafted songs in the vein of American Standard, Farside and Revolution Summer DC post punk. This time around there's also an early Silverchair influence sprinkled in every so often.

Beautifully presented by Short Fuse Records from Australia, we are distributing this record in Europe on their behalf. As the label head is a seasoned printer, expect luxury throughout! The labels are silver ink on black paper, the sleeve has rounded edges and a custom thumbcut and it comes with a full colour insert, all on top notch paper that feels like peach skin when you touch it. Wow!

After an acclaimed demo on Neutral Words Records in 2017 and stand-out live shows across Europe, Stockholm-based Existence brings you their debut EP, "Into the Furnace," with a signature blend of metallic hardcore and '90s grunge elements on QCHQ Records. "Into The Furnace" sees the band explore powerful atmospherics and soaring guitar solos mixed in with pit-worthy breakdowns. Meanwhile, vocalist Linus, a committed anti-fascist activist in Stockholm, sings about dealing with the consequences of mistakes from the past whilst exploring the Hindu idea of endless reincarnation.

The New York area is once again churning out quality heavy, hard hardcore bands with Incendiary, Jukai, and Backtrack, and now with Regulate, who presents their first ever LP. These tracks have the heavy and grooving vibe of New York bands of the '90s like Vision Of Disorder, Leeway, Dmize, and the like.

Hudson Valley, NY, all-stars make their debut Triple-B release with "Excalibur." Ten tracks of blistering crossover-influenced hardcore in the vein of Cro-Mags, Leeway, and Burn. After selling out multiple pressings of their debut 7"s and split with Dead Heat, "Excalibur" takes Mindforce to the next level in aggressive music. LP includes digital download. On colored vinyl.

There is no doubt Warzone was one of the most crucial and influential bands that came from the New York hardcore scene. Their landmark debut LP, "Don't Forget The Struggle Don't Forget The Streets," is heralded as one of the most important NYHC records of all time, with its 2016 reissue on Revelation Records selling thousands of copies and filling gaps in record collections all over the world. Two years later, Revelation Records proudly presents the reissue of Warzone's second LP, "Open Your Eyes." Vinyl version includes digital download and a 16-page, 12" x 12" booklet with previously unseen photos, lyrics, liner notes by Tony Rettman, and an interview with Raybeez from back in the day. On colored vinyl.

Sunstroke, from Philadelphia and surrounding areas, is a band that started with an honest intention of getting together with freinds to write the kind of songs that they wanted and felt motivated to write. You'll hear a heavy focus on Washington, DC's Revolution Summer-era bands like Dag Nasty, Embrace, Rain, and Rites Of Spring, but also a larger range of influence from '80s Britpop, shoegaze, and Minneapolis greats Husker Du and The Replacements. While keeping a strong handle on the ethos and social justice elements of hardcore/punk, Sunstroke looks to offer sound and content that resonate with audiences. LP includes digital download and is on colored vinyl.

Hailing from the depths of New York City, Vanity features former members of The Rival Mob and plays some energetic punk consomme indebted to rock 'n' roll but coming across less like the deliberate broken chains of Vans slip-ons and Target 501s swapped for sequins, strides, and scarves - but more like an effort forged in Billy Zoom's living room on Warren Zevon's gear as played by the Saints' roadies in a bar that serves really, really, really cold beer.

Stigmatism is an infatuation with and/or an astute observation of the more "early man" aspects of that first wave of NYHC. Featuring an ex-Omega and a native New Yorker united in their love of this particular style of hardcore punk, this demo recording has been slapped onto some slabs of plastic that can be played loud on a phonograph. Limited edition of 500 copies.

Unavailable for years, "Quest For Certainty" is considered by many to be the best Shelter record ever. Originally released in 1992, it is comprised of tracks from the "No Compromise" and "In Defense Of Reality" EPs with a track from the "Voice Of The Voiceless" compilation, a Black Sabbath cover outtake from those sessions, and two live tracks. The record was recorded by two different line-ups featuring Ray Cappo (Youth Of Today, Better Than A Thousand), Vic Dicara (Inside Out, 108), Porcell (Youth Of Today, Judge, Gorilla Biscuits), Graham land (Better Than A Thousand, Battery), and Sammy Siegler (Youth Of Today, Civ, World Be Free, Judge, Rival Schools). LP includes digital download and is limited to 700 copies. On colored vinyl.

For the first time in over 20 years, Morning Again returns with their "Survival Instinct" 7" EP, offering up four brand-new, powerful, riff-heavy tracks.

Now, they are also joined by Joshua Williams (formerly of Culture) on drums. On colored vinyl.

Finally available in physical format, the smash debut demo from New York's Ekulu appears on a limited pressing via Triple-B Records.

Featuring members of Illusion, Candy, Glory, Ecostrike, and more. 7" includes digital download and is limited to 492 copies.

Shook Ones' "Body Feel" was recorded in the summer of 2018 at Hear Me Shimmer and the Loom Room, and was mixed and mastered by Jack Shirley at The Atomic Garden. You can trace the Shook Ones' sound back to classic punk bands such as 7 Seconds and Descendents, and while often garnering comparisons to Lifetime and Kid Dynamite, their unique style has just as much in common with the aforementioned bands as it does with Jawbreaker and Hot Water Music. Their hardcore and punk roots shine through, however, in their unique and quirky melodies as well as their aggressive guitar assault. LP includes digital download of this record. This is the green vinyl version.

"Tribulation Worksongs" is a series of releases from Modern Life Is War, recorded by Luke Tweedy at Flat Black Studios and mixed by Kurt Ballou at GodCity Studio. Aiming to be as hand-built as possible, the lyrics/credits of each song were typed by vocalist/lyricist Jeff Eaton on his antique typewriter. These were later hand stamped on the front and back covers by artist Jacob Bannon, making each cover totally unique. 7" includes digital download.

After gaining infamy with two long-sold out cassettes and a slew of deadly, knife-wielding live performances, City Hunter's long-awaited full length album, "Deep Blood," delivers 14 fatal stab wounds to engulf the listener in a delirious pool of hell. Soaked in filthy atmosphere and laced with grim interludes, this is not your feel-good retro horror, but a sickening manifestation of death and destruction. With a fully developed sound, this audial hallucination of murder and torment is a living nightmare you can't escape.

Mixed and mastered to perfection by the legendary Will Killingsworth at Dead Air studios with a powerful synth outro by J. Wood (GRINNING DEATH'S HEAD), this masterpiece is sure to consume your life in endless red rain.
On colored vinyl.

Exploding out of the deep San Antonio, TX, underground, Creep Stare drops a bombshell of pure hardcore misanthropy with their astounding 10-song EP, "Pain Game." Taking a no-frills, classic approach steeped in modern-world misery, they deliver a high-impact barrage of throttled riffs and gruff vocals, aided by an unhinged performance by session drummer and Denver HC legend James Trejo (Cadaver Dog, Life Support). Recorded in Denver, CO, by Joey Hidalgo at Skull Cavity Studios and mixed and mastered by Will Killingsworth.

Following in the footsteps of Southern California straight-edge greats such as Uniform Choice and No For An Answer, Dare doesn't hold back. If you like your hardcore fast, Dare delivers. With their demo titled "OC Straight Edge" pressed on a 7" flexi disc under their belt, it's time to unleash their self-titled 7" onto the hardcore scene. 7" includes digital download. On colored vinyl.

Four veterans of the hardcore scene have come together to form Bystander. Featuring members of Trial, Spirits, Decline, Expired Youth, Test Of Time, Between The Earth And Sky, and more, Bystander is a modern take on classic, youth-crew hardcore. Introspective and thoughtful lyrics set over guitar-heavy rhythms coupled with unique art and packaging set this release far beyond the average 7" EP of the genre. Colored vinyl while stocks last.

Oakland, CA, trio Super Unison features Meghan O'Neil (formerly of Punch) on bass and vocals, Kevin DeFranco on guitar, and Justin Renninger (formerly of Snowing) on drums. Their new album, "Stella," was recorded by Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies, Jawbreaker), produced by Don Devore (Ink & Dagger), and mastered by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Oathbreaker). Though they tackle dark and personal subject matter, they ultimately find a light that cuts through the dark, and a way to get through the loss and loneliness we all face. On colored vinyl.

February 16, 2018 marked the 10-year anniversary of the first show ever played by Los Angeles natives Touche’ Amore’.

Candy has once again teamed up with Triple-B Records for their most fantastical and sinister release yet.

Aligning with the esteemed engineer and producer Arthur Rizk, Candy has finally achieved the type of artistry that transcends the confines of its own medium. On colored vinyl.
