2024 - 11 - 19 /// Canada Post on strike + good news

November 19, 2024 by David Norman

Canada Post is on strike. This means Canada store (aka this store) and most of the Bandcamp orders literally cannot ship out until it is resolved. The good news here is if you place multiple orders over the strike’s duration I can combine your orders and refund you some shipping after the gears get movin’ again. This is totally out of our hands, so please have some patience. U.S.A. store orders will continue to go out and they ship internationally too!!! Click on this text to go to the US store.

Fingerswoventogether released on Friday and we’ve blown through most of the tapes already. This store has a handful and the US store has a couple, but Bandcamp copies are sold out. Links to both stores are at the bottom of the Bandcamp page and cost less than those sold out copies anyways. Such a wicked debut EP!!!

Gxllium! is next! The first run of tapes flew so we made a bunch more - 150 to be exact. CanaDave is dipping those suckas now, and this run is professionally duped with proper j-cards, as the first run was all DIY, baby. EP of the year? Definitely up there!!! Oh shit I found one extra copy of the 1st run…embedded below!

GXLLIUM! - Breakup songs (cassette)

from CA$11.00

GXLLIUM! ‘Breakup songs‘ cassette (ZB369)

For fans of: Me And Him Call It Us, Hayworth, Rex Kwon Do, and .gif rom god

California's GXLLIUM! are back with an exceptionally fresh set of songs featuring a brand new lineup, and these six songs will absolutely floor you. Part chaotic hardcore, part metallic hardcore, part screamo/emo-violence, and a dash of the mosh, the breakdowns, panic chords, and unrelenting screaming will leave you aghast in the best possible way. We got these masters just a few days back so the first tape run was on 37 DIY cassettes (sold out) followed a 2nd/final run of professionally duplicated copies out of 152. EP of the year? You betcha!

Cassettes 1st run /37: 10 on 'Peart's Pearl Swirl', 10 red, 10 transparent yellow, 5 halfsies swirl, and two 'That's My Gold Bar'

Cassettes 2nd run /152: 65 on Whistleblower swirl, 25 on Gold Fleck swirl, 25 White, 20 on Random Color swirl, 10 on Underage Drinking swirl, and 7 test dips w/matching swirl case

each with double-sided j-card w/lyrics. 6 songs.

There are some Le Blast tape stragglers that didn’t get immediately cleaned out last week. I’ve rearranged the products so the in stock cassettes permeate the top of the list.

If you want Le Blast tapes from the USA store just click on this sentence.

This Noise Is Ours continued their ZBR Roster Review series with the first Blue Noise demo cassette. I’ve been forgetting to include the Out Past the Rings for these reviews as they shed a lotta extra light on the releases, and if you love said release you’ll probably want some of that shinfo, baby. Click this text for the review, jam above, Out Past the Rings below.

Tenue’s newest album (we did tapes and are almost out) got a great review from Metal Storm. Click on this text for the review and jam/buy below!

2024 - 11 - 04 /// Senza released!!!

November 01, 2024 by David Norman

Senza’s ‘Celestial Body’ is officially out! 500 copies over 200 pink/blue/black merge, 150 pink, and 150 blue, all with etched b-side and 12-page lyric book. Merges are definitely the hot ticket item and are moving hella fast. UK/EU customers snag from Dog Knights unless you’re placing a multi-item order.

Concealer is the next ZBR release and it’s this Friday! ‘Heartfelt Entries’ includes two brand new songs and the ‘dissonance [all that keeps me away]’ EP on one convenient cassette. Jam the already released EP below!

Coup D’Etat has an 8-song cassette full length releasing Dec 13th on Tomb Tree but the first single is up on the artist’s Bandcamp page. The metallic screamo three-piece from Vancouver Island has been kicking ass at shows since I moved here and we are hella excited about it.

Hallam Foe got some serious love from Everything Is Noise with their epic piece about how fucking exciting this 12” lathe really is. Read all about it by clicking on the pic above or this text. Experience the brain-fuckery below, and pick up a copy before they’re gone if you’re so inclined.

Orphan Donor’s ‘Old Patterns’ was the subject of the most recent Out Past the Rings. A reminder that 1) there are two tapes left in stock and 2) the packaging says ZBR188 but it’s actually ZBR189.

Vi Som Alskade Varanda Sa Mycket’s debut 12”LP is officially 10 years old! Holy crap I remember finding out about them beforehand and getting ZBR’s hand in juuuuuust before the 12” went to press on Blood Of The Young. Nick was truly welcoming and working with him was a downright amazing experience, RIP my dude <3 Click on this text or the pic above to go the Idioteq.com piece that also serves as an interview with vocalist and my friend Arvid (vocals).

We sold out of that beautiful thing ages ago, but we do have a few copies left of their 8-way 2x12” ‘Eight Feet Under’ (with two exclusive/amazing tracks, embedded below) and their full length follow-up ‘Det onda. Det goda. Det vackra. Det fula.’ (embedded above).

Eklektik Rock rounded up a buncha September releases and included our Bloom Dream in their monthly review. I’m pretty sure we’re sold out, but if not snag a cd asap, as I know the tapes are gone. Click on the pic above or this text to go to the list of reviews. Jam below!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: TERROR CELL = Oooooo yooooo the new Terror Cell LP is phenomental. Get on it!
