Really Rad Records

01/25/2025

Hey y’all, we took a big step back from the label over the holidays to try to reevaluate our situation and make sure we could still do this taking into consideration some pretty big roadblocks after the fire.

As some of you know we’ve hit some pretty annoying and expensive setbacks trying to restock our catalog on cassette in particular but wanted to give an update regarding open orders:

I know folks that ordered bundles are waiting on cassettes, and we are expecting to ship those in the next 3 weeks along with the remaining orders for tapes.

The few remaining open cassette will be refunded in the meantime, and can be reordered as the titles are restocked. We will be announcing those via socials in the coming months as they are restocked!

If you’re waiting on CDs or shirts, please DM with your order number because those are in stock and shipping now.

Thank you to the powers that be for letting us peddle our meager wares at the screamo event of all time.

Check out our table, we’ll have free s**t, cheap s**t, s**t right outside of your price range, and s**t that can only be purchased with some kind of fu**ed up arcane knowledge.

We’re incredibly pumped to announce that we’ve partnered with Boston-based Pop Punk band 5ever!

We’ve been big fans of their Pop-first approach for a couple of years now, so it’s surreal to share that their new single “Life Is a Driveway” is releasing on Really Rad on August 5th ⭐️

For now you can listen to their latest EP “ILY” anywhere you listen to music! Get to know 5ever and get pumped for the new tunes 😘

Thank you to everyone so much for your continued support since the fire, whether or not you were able to donate. We literally would not have been able to continue to do this without all of your help, and thanks to your generosity, we reached three-quarters of our funding goal on gofundme and have been able to put releases back into motion!

We’re almost back up and running, just waiting on the last few supplies to arrive, as well as moving into a new workspace (this time it’s not our living room!). We’re expecting to become fully functional again over the next 2-4 weeks.

All releases from late 2023 and 2024 are going back in production on cassette and CD. CDs are expected to start shipping in 3-5 weeks, and most cassettes are expected to start shipping in 6-8 weeks (probably, we’re waiting on supplies rn). We’re on track to have the remainder of 2023 records available in the store again this August. Test presses for multiple vinyl releases have either shipped or been approved, including the long-awaited Day Aches vinyl so now we’re making sure all of their soft merch will be printed and ready to ship with those records by July.

This has been an incredibly emotionally and financially draining few months but we couldn’t be more honored that y’all came together to support us through it. There was a few weeks prior to launching the gofundme when we honestly were not sure if we were going to be able to continue doing Really Rad in nearly the same capacity as before, so to see so many people come together to offer us support (monetary or otherwise) was an incredible feeling. As we rebuild Really Rad, we’re doing it with so much gratitude in our hearts for this amazing community.

In other words: We are so back.

Summer is waiting here without you

We’re so stoked to working with Italian emo group on their debut LP ‘Fat Animals’ available everywhere today! 🇮🇹

FFO: Mineral, Rainer Maria, The Promise Ring, Braid

A blend of familiar memories and imagined scenes, ‘Fat Animals’ serves as a tribute to the emo scene of the late 90s so faithful that you might mistake it as a time capsule.

The new LP from Southern emo collective Farseek is out now. ‘Who Can Start The Fires?’ is a 12-track journey touching on love, affection, radicalization, and collective action. The move to embrace their more southern roots with the inclusion of searing Banjo and horn sections over waves of fuzzed out guitars lend an almost countrygaze sheen to the project.
