Orchid’s ‘Gatefold’ is here and ready to continue kicking ass after over 20 years as a screamo staple, trendsetter, band bar-setter. We’ve got just 3 copies in the Canada/International store and 15 in the U.S. store all on orangey/brownish 12” vinyl with…you guessed it, a gatefold jacket. The links will go live at 10am PST / 12pm CST / 1pm PST at the following links:

Goes live at 10am PST / 12pm CST / 1pm PST

In the off-chance you were visiting the moon these past four days, In Loving Memory’s first release in 20 years is out and kicking serious ass. The Canada/Bandcamp store has like 1 copy left and the U.S. is moving fast.

Don’t forget that the band’s 12” pre-order closes at midnight tonight via their webstore so in less than 24 hours tapes will be your only option!!!

Variant pics tomorrow. Oh my god we’re all so fucking stoked. 110 black. 100 nebula. 25 wax mage.

Neuman Portentum got some This Noise Is Ours love, and rightly so. Shit slaps. Click on the pic above or this text to go there, or jam it below.

Amitie are good friends of ours and their trajectory in the realm of screamo has been nothing but jaw stretching. Their electric performance downstairs was fucking intense. We will continue posting the single videos for each band that played the last day of ZBR Fest 2023 in the order that they played, so there’s more coming!

Softseed Music’s Bok Suna releases this Thursday at 9am PST / 11am CST / 12pm EST and is some seriously gorgeous solo indie rock from the inanely talented Yumi who is just 20 years old. Here are variants, total run is only 33 tapes! CanaDave is straight-up obsessed. So good, and more to come!!!

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: PIERCINGSKINWITHPINENEEDLES = I saw this making the rounds, definitely good lo-fi screamo from the U.S. somewhere.
