ALL HAIL OBSOLETE RECORD CARTEL!!!

*****BIG NEWS!!!*****

I am pleased and excited to make a few announcements. When I say "we are doing this" or "we are doing that", I am no longer referring to me, myself, and I. After a thoroughly enjoyable blast session with my longtime friend Dave Ehrlich this weekend, we have decided to partner up and make this record label happen. Dave has years of experience under his belt working for Relapse Records, as well as credentials as a certified grinder (Cadaveric Spasm, Epilepsy, etc). He is also way more organized than I am and more useful with a computer. While we are still planning on keeping the scale small, we should be able to effectively accomplish some big projects. This takes us to the next big announcement...

We have changed our name to Obsolete Record Cartel. Dave will be taking over the majority of the internet work, including setting up a Tumblr, Band Camp, Twitter, etc. An e-store should be up by the end of this week, as well as another release. If you haven't heard what we've already put out, click here for more information.

If you think that you or your friend's band would be a good match for Obsolete Record Cartel, send some tracks to hailobsolete@gmail.com. We already have a few projects in the pipeline and are working on a extremely limited/non-existent budget, so please keep that in mind, but we want to hear from you regardless.

Thanks to everyone who has taken an interest in this project, any of our bands, or the DIY scene in general. Having fought for almost a decade in the trenches of the underground metal scene, we know that success is entirely contingent on the support of the fans, promoters, and bands who make things happen. I am proud to be a part of a community of musicians, artists, and passionate music-lovers who put so much of themselves into creating something amazing. Never fucking stop.

Keep posted for more updates, thank's for reading!

-John
