To Live A Lie Records

05/15/2026

I have some free time this weekend so I'm going to ruin that with a random 25% off all non-vinyl non-deal items. Go grab four CDs or tapes and get the fifth free. Since I'm mostly down to only my and 625 releases the prices were already bottom floor so come and support DIY done with a perfectionist attitude from some of the best blast-beating bands around

My post of the Ixias combo sold me 30 copies and I'm down to ten. So these might be the last few sales. Houkago Grind Time I'm down to fifteen copies so let's nix those out. Sissy I have one extra box so let's grab those. Cryptic Void gatefold is a flawless album and I have two extra boxes because gatefold take up extra space and I need space.

Also CDs above $7 temporarily 15% off.

Thanks again everyone, we are seeing major space freeing up thanks to you.

Ixias Tinge VHS/CS this week is $15 marked down for $39 or $50 for ten to clear out the last 30 copies to make room. Don't sleep. Amazing release.

TLAL rarities section opened - posting single test pressings per format at a time to make additional space in the HQ. Why one at a time? To keep things fun and people checking back in as they are randomly grabbed. Whoa that costs real money? It's a test press and not a normal pressing, it is priced to offset some of my pressing losses from over the years. Have fun and check back often. New drops as soon as these sell and pull and make new ones.

New tape storage is helping to shrink the footprint down of the label. So is all your orders! Let's gooo!

I'm just going to lose my entire mind doing DIY for as cheap as possible. Will get things back up soon hopefully. Existing orders all shipped or going out tomorrow. I promise you my luck and karma is as crazily bad as I post about and I have no idea why.

Hey all. It's been a rollercoaster here in the TLAL clean out rampage I've been doing. First of all, THANK YOU. The distro clean out was a huge success. I know I made the time window short so I appreciate your quick purchases. I really only have a handful of weekends to clear my house out because I'm alternating my time between this and visiting my dad after the death of my mom. Second, I can't believe I finally cleared out small and medium shirts. You've all been huge there. There is one small deal and four random medium shirts to go and will go to Cause of Paws next week if not purchased.

Whats next? We just dumped all releases not to be repressed extra covers in the recycle.

Whats after that? Focused on getting four things into your hands -
1. Stickers, pins, and odds and ends - made two deals
2. Posters - also made webstore deals
3. Ixias VHS/CS - weird format, cheap deal, hmu wholesale
4. Houkago Grind Time LP - not many left so grab them

Other things I'd love if you grabbed -
1. TLAL banner
2. Realize LP
3. Sissy Spacek LP
4. Suppression LP

No deals on that last batch I just think they are amazing releases and deserve a home.

Let's make space for a lil baby here!

In 2021 I lost probably hundreds of dollars on reshipping new covers to replaced damaged ones, then probably lost a grand or two by switching to Whiplash mailers without having the time to adjust my store to account for the $2 extra per order these bumped me up to. I was shipping out an unprecedented number of records due to Spy being an amazing band people were getting excited about and major labels holding releases off. Really the perfect storm having a postal carrier who didn't honor the fragile stickers on what he was expecting to be an easy residential mail route, the lack of time to make changes, and a huge (probably a dozen orders a day) mailorder load on to of being employed full time at my day job. Whiplash and charging for PayPal fees in shipping, plus offering optional insurance has been the standard in my store since I found the time in maybe 2023 to make the changes. Just a fun thing from behind the scenes you might not have been aware of.

F**k the world, I don't want their s**t! We all know that these warmongers have their heads up their asses getting high on their own f***l matter, and that they don't give a f**k about us! If you read CVLT Nation on the daily, then you know how we feel about the state of the world. Hey STRAGGLER — I hope y'all don't take this the wrong way, but your music makes me want to say F**K THE SYSTEM!!! They have a new EP dropping on March 13th via To Live A Lie Records. Right now, we want you to check out STRAGGLER's new visual "Without A Country."
