Candlelight
Season of Mist
Century Media

Personally I don't care which label a band is on, as long as I can get their albums for a fair price.
 
My list is basically the same as Zeph's.

Candelight
Season of Mist
Century Media
SPV
Nuclear Blast
 
Inside Out has my favorite band on it so I voted for them. But overall the label doesn't matter to me.

Though I've ordered a lot of cds from Candlelight.
 
Willowtip is pretty much a scenester label now.

HAHAHA. Wrong.

Personally I don't keep track of record labels. I don't care about that kind of stuff. Give me music - period

Yup. That is my mind frame. Certain labels do a good song at putting out records in a certain packaging sense. Like Merge Records puts out everything on cd and vinyl in a non-limited sense. Southern Lord puts a lot of effort into the artwork. Well these may not had the sound, it does add to the fun of the album.
 
What kind of bands are on RazorBack Alter? Maybe give me some good examples.


Yeah, but back to what I was saying - No record label is going to save a shitty band from being shitty. It's just something I've never really caerd to keep track of, but maybe I will change one day.
 
What kind of bands are on RazorBack Alter? Maybe give me some good examples.

Razorback is basically a Thrash meets Goregrind label. A lot of the bands focus around horror themes. The label is a ridiculously consistent label that rarely ever puts out something of low quality and always offers amazing artwork and good packaging. The distro section of their website is also a highly stocked with good albums not released on the label. The highlights of the label are Frightmare,Ghoul,Lord Gore and Bloodfreak. The also have reissued classic death metal act Impetigo's two full lengths with new artwork.

It's a bit harder to keep track of record labels when your whole collection is on your computer and ends in .mp3. :Smug:


I don't have a favorite.
