BMBC 020 -- BMBC Number Twenty 10" compilation - A Sampler ten-inch CLEAR record that features an assortment of oddities that never quite made it off the ground. Recording projects, One-off bands, Rare recordings, and even music that was the backdrop for a news radio series. It's got those archival green sleeves. Super Limited! (see original post for track listing)
BMBC 023 - Esbat (4-song) 7" - Intentional sickness from hoodoo ritual dudes. Esbat is a small but furious power in the vein of Die Kreuzen or VSS. One half-Japanese guy, one Mexican guy, and a guy from China, they create a UN-of-post-hardcore feel. The four tracks on this cycle between driving-jangle, bombastic-force, or blissed-out drone... Energetic and balls-to-the-wall
BMBC 024 -- Followed By Static / Bonnibonita 7" - An unbreakable 45 of garage boogie. Followed by Static are fast becoming major movers n shakers lurking the red river scene. While Bonnibonita is a new troupe of ladies, this being their first record. Both bands kick out the jams utilizing elements of oldschool swing, rock n roll, big beat, doo wop. The Decca label would be proud (or... they'd sue us).
BMBC 025 -- Broke Beads "Wave High" 12" - Beautiful instrumental indie pop tunes, or "when skaters get closer to 30 than 25." Comparisons at this point have ranged from Broken Social Scene and Tristeza, to “a more up-tempo Explosions in the Sky” or “early Thrill Jockey.” Side A is studio, Side B live. On siiiiick green vinyl. *We'll include audio files if you buy it from us.
BMBC 026 -- Hüsky Düdes 1st EP - Grease-slick punk mixes old anthemic hardcore stuff like Black Flag and Misfits with and garage-y DC hardcore, sprinkle on a little east bay 90s sound. Old Crow bones. Honorific punk to the days of yore, but ripping off strings of shows here in the good ol' two-thousand and twelve. 5 tracks on this bad boy!
BMBC 029 -- PA.RTS "Greatest Hiss" 7" - Ethereal ambient and drone using instruments both traditional and home-built. PA.RTS shows include film or video accompaniment created exclusively by the band. 3 members constantly improvising live and even sampling available sounds at the shows and re-interpreting them. This colored vinyl 7" is 5 of the best tracks from their previous limited cassette-only releases.Cassette/CDR Releases (2002-2007)

BMBC 013 -- Chav Mer "333" - 333s release. Noise rock space jam teleport. A sea of jagoffs. Featuring members of King Mullet, Blue Oculi, Ghost Heat, and Hammerz. This band was so powerful it bit the dust brutally, imploding, jettisoning not one but two drummers. Members went on to be in MGX, iKiLLCaRS, and Esbat
BMBC 015 -- Damage Pants/Chav Mer "Sluggin' it out with Sludge" c20 - a split cassette with one of the freshest Austin bands, Damage Pants checking in with some live tracks.
