There’s a lot of great bands from the greater Bay Area history, and then there’s Nuisance. It’s hard to think of a band that I’ve been more excited about getting to work with, and this is something truly special. Not just a reissue, but a brand new compilation of tracks from across the band’s history, be it Very Small Records 7”s, cassette comps, or songs found by Adam LaBelle in a garbage can decades ago. Some of these have never been heard, and they’re all remastered (or, mastered for the first time in most cases) but Carl Saff. Liner notes by Adam. It’s raw, it’s distorted and hissing, it’s some of the best music we’ve released.

Tomorrow night our buds in Spurts are celebrating the release of their brand new album “That Was Mean and I’m Sorry” at Bikini Bottom in Oakland. This album is a classic in the making and what else do you have to do on a Saturday night? Love this band, love this album, go see the show and grab a copy of the new record from them on vinyl!

Gargoyle approved! We now have vinyl of hit me, Harold!’s newest creation. Pill blue vinyl, all of them include a lyric insert. Love love love this album and really stoked to be working with a band that’s been such a supporter of Bay Area DIY.

If you’re in SF tonight, go see them with VS Self, Knumears, and Drought at the freaking Great American Music Hall! Order link in the biome

Big day! Hope everyone is having a great Bandcamp Friday 🎶
First off, today the new Phase Problem LP is finally out! Been playing this non stop since I got asked to help release it, just truly great Lookout-esque pop punk. We’re over half sold out of our copies so get em while they’re still in this universe!

Also, we’re doing tapes for the new split between Indica In Decay and Lumpy! Ska? Synth? Fun! 3 tunes per artist and even a Replacements cover to boot. Go check it out and order the tape from us or Lumpy/Indica’s Bandcamps today (since it’s Bandcamp Friday!!)

Thanks for your continued support as always, more soon. Stay socky

Good morning! So so stoked to announce we’re working with Brassneck and Stardumb to bring the new Phase Problem LP to vinyl 🚀

Fronted by Flav Giorgini (founding SQUIRTGUN songwriter and guitarist), along with John Bonnar (HAIVER, P**S BATH, ex-PAWS), Alex Keane (ROACH SQUAD, ex-MURDERBURGERS, ex-CITY MOUSE) and special guest Fraser Mudderbang (WRONG LIFE, MURDERBURGERS, BIKE NOTES) the new album stays fresh while giving you all the best elements of pop punk and just good rocking tunes

The album also features guest appearances by Heather Tabor (ex-TEEN IDOLS), Matt Hart (NEVERNEW, SQUIRTGUN founding member), Bruce Stuckey (TOXIC REASONS) and Vess Ruhtenberg (TOXIC REASONS, ex-ZERO BOYS, ex-LEMONHEADS).

The album is limited to 250, and we have only a portion of that so I’d recommend jumping on it. Preorder up now!
