Brighten your day

Colors

We went back in time to see what our logo would look like. Ten thousand gigawatts later and this is the result. Highly influenced by skate culture of the late 80’s, crazy colors ensued. Word of note, no I don’t do drugs.

Arizona/Philly tight homies

Got a big gang photo shoutout from Sex Prisoner, Magnum Force, and Backslider on Backslider’s tour out west. Heard it was a killer show, not sure if Backslider gave a shoutout to TLAL between each song like they said, actually that sounds like it would be fairly annoying so I hope they didn’t. This is the new breed of powerviolence/grindviolence for 2010/2011.  Photo courtesy of Danny Johnson.

Much Respect: Ira Rogers

Ira is a Raleigh youngblood who books most of the local house shows, rages hard for every (worthwhile) band, and plays in quite a few amazing bands including Thieves and Stripmines. He is a music animal and blasts apart a drumset like a raging baboon. He is full of energy and excitement about good music. Much respect to Ira for gluing the pieces of the Raleigh scene back together and uniting the older and younger crowds.

Much Repect: Haunted Hotel Records

I don’t know how Ralph Ferrara does it. Family man, band member of Iron Butter, and successful DIY grindcore record label owner. I’m sure anyone from New England has at least seen him lugging his humongous distro to shows. There can’t be time int he day to be Ralph, so I don’t know how he does it all.. and does it so well! Awesome array of releases ranging from obscure short run releases to huge releases from the likes of Phobia, Agathocles, Archagathus, Coffins, and quite a bit more. Check out his label and support a good dude, stacked distro, and excellent label.

Webstore new product updates

Now that I finally have a new item RSS feed, I have set up a Twitter and Tumblr page to post when new products go up. I know most people don’t want to see these types of updates but for those of you wanting to be in the know with new distro items then follow via either one of these Twitter and Tumblr store feeds. As always, the normal news pages are unaffected by this. If you want to get totally crazy you can get email updates via Feedburner of webstore updates.
