Which label is your favorite?

[The Bled 13]

There are so many record labels that put out plenty of good bands. Which is your favorite? I personally like Fiddler, Ferret and Victory.

[MaybeOneDay]

Drive-Thru, Victory, Tooth and Nail, Vagrant.

[still_life]

Level-Plane, Ebullition, Troubleman Unlimited, Gravity, GSL, Threeoneg

[BanMe]

Relapse, Hydra Head, Indecision, Robotic Empire

[Touched]

Tooth and Nail, Deep Elm, Victory, Vagrant...

[mwhpunk]

Drive Thru, Vagrant, Island, Tooth and Nail, maybe some others....

[punkforlife]

why the shit has no one mentioned equal vision yet? think of all the great bands/records they've put out - fairweather, saves the day, liars academy, coheed & cambria, armor for sleep etc etc.
also asian man have/had some great bands - alkaline trio, the lawrence arms, slapstick, the broadways and on and on and on.

Your case for Equal Vision makes me remember why I DIDN'T choose them, don't forget The Stryder, they sucked too. On a positive note, EVR has put out stuff by Trial, Bane, Converge, Give Up The Ghost, 108, and One King Down.

[FalloutGuy]

Drive-Thru, Fearless, Victory, Ferret, Vagrant and more i can't remember right now

[BanMe]

As far as I'm concerned Fearless=Bigwig, if Bigwig leaves, like they probably will, Fearless is shit.

[towhatend]

Fearless = Anatomy of a Ghost

[BanMe]

Fearless = Anatomy of a Ghost

That band is nothing but a homeless man's Coheed and Cambria, the poor man didn't even want that shit.

[towhatend]

no argument here but I think they're Fearless' biggest asset.

[BanMe]

no argument here but I think they're Fearless' biggest asset.

Fearless is turning into Drive-Thru lite. It all started with those "Punk Goes..." comps.

[jgirv17]

Third Eye Vision, Battle Axe Records, Victory Records, Def Jux

[Geoff]

I am not much for remembering labels but I like Deep Elm, Saddle Creek, Vagrant, Victory, ferret and quite a few other small ones that I cant even remember the names

damn your so hardcore. i like the stryder, you don't and that's cool but to say they suck is a little strong - which label is your band signed to...?

[Alex Djaferis]

Island Records by far.

thrice, thursday, fallout boy, autopilot off....need i say more?

[xnotedgex]

no love here for jadetree?

also, emperor norton, kindercore, tigerstyle, barsuk, subpop

[Alex Djaferis]

no love here for jadetree?

also, emperor norton, kindercore, tigerstyle, barsuk, subpop

guess not :( i dont know any of those...

[still_life]

The only essential Jade Tree has put out is the Cap'n Jazz discog. They have had some other good stuff (Lifetime, Pedro The Lion, The Promise Ring, Joan Of Arc, etc.) but they're far from being one of the best labels.

[falloutboyandme]

Definetly Victory.
They have the best of everything. And they aren't pussys. I like alot of music on drive thru but sometimes I get really sick of drive-thrus whining. I am always hearing stuff about them crying "so and so stabbed us in the back" or " so and so didn't appreciate us" Seems like Victory has more business sense.

Besides I admire the fact that they can put out amazing hard albums and still aren't ashamed to release a cd by taking back sunday or bayside.

[still_life]

Victory is a terrible label man (didn't you ever read those letters Thursday made about them?) They don't have any true respect for hardcore music anymore. They're always trying to sell the next big thing.

[xnotedgex]

kid dynamite, strike anywhere, trial by fire, girls against boys,etc

[still_life]

bollocks.

[falloutboyandme]

see that's exactly what I mean. All bands bitch about their label. But had it been drive-thru they were bitching about...richard and stephanie would have put a huge post of their website crying their side of the story and begging to be loved. Victory just does what they want to. They don't stoop to that level. Victory is a business, they don't lie and try to say they are a "family" an be all cuddly about it.
And you can't say they don't help their bands. Have you not seen the thousands of samplers that they put out for EVERY single release. and the ads on MTV, there is a victory banner on practically every single webzine.

[xnotedgex]

bollocks.

ebullition's bands of value - orchid, yaphet kotto
level plan bands of value - hot cross, saetia
troublemanunlimited - much better

can't say i've heard much from the other labels

[str8tedgemetal]

I'm going to have to back you up (even though fall out boy sucks).

Victory had a very major part in getting this scene where it is today.

AND to who ever it was who said that Victory only puts out trendy music now...maybe you just only notice the trendy albums.

The last two albums victory has put out are Scars of Tomorrow and Premonitions of War.

I think it's awesome. Victory signs bands that get big and then they have enough money to pour into bands like Dead to Fall and Darkest Hour and Martyr AD.

[BanMe]

damn your so hardcore. i like the stryder, you don't and that's cool but to say they suck is a little strong - which label is your band signed to...?

Haha, I love this argument. The Stryder were aping Saves the Day who were aping Lifetime. That's like doing Me First And The Gimme Gimmes covers. Please. It has nothing to do with me being hardcore, and everything to do with those bands being mediocre.

[FarPastGone]

Eulogy, Reprise, Cavalier, Lobster, Victory, Robotic Empire, Outline, Equal Vision........theres alot of others.....

[punkforlife]

Haha, I love this argument. The Stryder were aping Saves the Day who were aping Lifetime. That's like doing Me First And The Gimme Gimmes covers. Please. It has nothing to do with me being hardcore, and everything to do with those bands being mediocre.

you love what argument?
at no point did i say the syrder where unique, nor original, just that i liked them (and that i appreciated it that you and others might not-being as forums exist to allow discussion between differing view points) therefore it was not my argument.
next, me first and the gimme gimmes cover songs that have already been written and recorded by other bands/artists. the stryder might well sound like saves the day who may well once have sounded a lot like lifetime but that surely is a consequence more of peerage and of playing similar musical styles in overlaping periods of time (not to mention in extremely close geographical proximity)?
if you follow your own argument through then there can be neither progression by any one band unless they sound completely different from all previous bands within their genre, in which case it is hard to see genres existing, or any inspiration from previous generations to the next (as any such inspiration will be decried as 'copycat' etc).
finally, the statement 'mediocore' is entirely the expression of your personal opinion regarding the quality of the bands i mentioned. because it is YOUR opinion it has no objective worth to me at all (equally mine must have none to you). personal opinion is just that: personal and subjective.

if you can come up with any genuine reasonable counter-arguments without stooping to insults & bitching (i'm sure you can, you seem intelligent enough) to any of this then feel free (your opinion is just as worthless as mine or anyone's) but if not then don't waste my time.
take it easy, punkforlife

[StopCensorship]

Solid State, Robotic Empire, Indecesion, Facedown, Fiddler, Equal Vision, Victory, Relapse, Hopeless and plenty others.

i agree, i hate drive-thru,
i love... Fearless (for AOAG), Ferret, Fiddler, Rise, Saddle Creek, Solid State, Trustkill, Vagrant and Victory...

[still_life]

ebullition's bands of value - orchid, yaphet kotto
level plan bands of value - hot cross, saetia
troublemanunlimited - much better

can't say i've heard much from the other labels

Then you should, because they've put out great stuff. Ebullition's old stuff is a lot of essential hardcore (Downcast, Portraits Of Past, Iconoclast, Floodgate, Still Life, Moss Icon, Struggle, Fuel, etc.). And they have an awesome distro.

Fuck Hot Cross, Saetia was better (and face it, Saetia is the biggest known band in modern "screamo"). You And I is also pretty big and LP had them. LP also had City Of Caterpillar, one of the most original bands in years. And they put out a lot of the heavy stuff that started in 1998 (Neil Perry, Usurp Synapse, Jerome's Dream). A lot of great foreign bands had releases on LP (Envy, Standstill, Melt-Banana, Yage, Oil, Kaospilot, Shikari). And they had Forstella Ford, Racebannon, Books Lie, etc. Damn what a great label. You couldn't name a better label with the best modern emo bands.

Troubleman Unlimited is pretty cool, but a lot of their stuff coming out now is crap. But when they were putting out music with structure, they were great (Unwound, Shotmaker, 1.6 Band, Rye Coalition, The Hal Al Shedad, The Hated, Three Penny Opera, Harriet The Spy, Black Dice, Song Of Zarathustra, The Anasazi, Lake Of Dracula, Camera Obscura, Love Life, Panthers, etc.)

[still_life]

Victory is looking to cash in on whatever they can. How is putting out Scars Of Tomorrow and Premonitions Of War not trendy? Metalcore like that is big now. They also put out Darkest Hour and Dead To Fall, because that Gothenburg sound is huge in metalcore and metal. Then they try and play it safe with albums from Bayside and Count The Stars. They thought they could get rich from Thursday but it didn't work out. Victory isn't good. A good number of bands have left that label because of the way it is. Like Hatebreed.

[FAMOUSsas]

ferret, solid state, trustkill, fiddler, facedown

[prettylush_]

Deep Elm, Fiddler, Jade Tree, Ferret, Eyeball, Level Plan, Solid State

[open mind]

i know they're a pretty big label now but i'm shocked that no one mentioned epitaph.

[StopCensorship]

I don't mind some of the stuff on Epitaph. But with the whole battle on who is "harder" label and stuff, I know Victory and Trustkill aren't the hardest of them all - but they still put out some of the same stuff as Solid State, Threeoneg, and Robotic Empire. Just Victory has picked up some others like Count The Stars and Spitalfield.

[still_life]

What has Victory and Trustkill put out that is as "hard" as The Locust, Daughters, Pig Destroyer, Holy Molar, Black Dice, Asterisk, Arab On Radar, Jenny Piccolo, The Red Chord, Benumb, Hassan I Sabbah, Kung-Fu Rick, Gnob, Circle Of Dead Children, pg.99, Creation Is Crucifixion, etc.?

[StopCensorship]

Well it's all opinion. But I do like some of the bands on Victory and Trustkill. They may not be just as hard, you are probably right. But whatever, just sometimes you seem kind of very opionated and disrespect other peoples likings of music. I do like Arab on Radar, Daughters and The Locust .. but I still like Poison The Well, Armsbendback, Bleeding Through and Poison The Well.

who cares how hard it is...that shit's just noise

[still_life]

Didn't I tell you before that you suck at reading? He was talking about those labels putting out music that is as hard as those labels. That's not true, and I proved that. It doesn't mean anything.

Noise? Ha, yeah right. It just must be too extreme for you. That stuff's not noise at all. Try listening to Merzbow or Birds In The Attic. That's noise. There's no strucutre in their songs.

I wasn't trying to say that Victory and Trustkill had harder music. And who cares if they don't, it's fucking music. Your just making stupid arugments over stupid things. Fighting over music is like fighting religion. Unless you listen to GC and Linkin Park, thats different.

[still_life]

What's wrong with you idiots? You started by saying they put out music just as hard as those labels, and I told you they don't. It's over, done with, and it means nothing. You two are the ones still bitching about it.

Wow, well calling someone an idiot is going to get you anywhere. I wasn't trying to insult you or bitch at all. I think that was you, you called me an idiot and then flipped when I mistakenly said my music was harder (In which I didn't.) If I had a faster computer and the money to afford CD's I know I'd like your music just as I like mine. You just need to relax and don't be so opinonated.

[saosinteam]

That band is nothing but a homeless man's Coheed and Cambria, the poor man didn't even want that shit.
hahahhahahah wait until the new album comes out, you'll be eating your fucking words.

as for fearless, they fucking blow, they're rejecting anatomy's new songs and telling them to "sound more like thursday" and be more radio friendly. fuck that shit.

my favorite label, hands down- equal vision. for the way they treat their bands, and everyone they've signed (especially recently with fear before and the snake the cross the crown...)

[Lueda Alia]

Tooth & Nail

Sup Pop

Saddle Creek

Matador


yeah what can I say? I like indie :D

[The Bled 13]

Indie is pretty cool.

[The Bled 13]

Oh you fuck fucking idiot thats not motherfucking indie its grindcore emo with a slash of hardcore mixed up with Shoe***er rock. Come on don't you know your music? Bright Eyes is motherfucking Pop-Punk / Experimental Noise!!! AHH YOU IDIOT!! Come on, Tooth And Nail is all crappy Math Rock!!! DUHH!!! I only like Alternative Hardcore. My favorite type of music is SCREAMOOOO!!!

No, I'm just kidding, but do you see how riduculous labels motherfucking get? Just listen to Still_Life ramble on, he reminds me of one of those computer dorks. So what if you know a ton of bands, NOBODY CARES.

[Lueda Alia]

lol huh? I'm totally confused....... ?

I never said I know a ton of bands? I just listed my favorite labels.... *shrug*

[BanMe]

Ok, from now on, no more genre names.

Everyone with emo, hardcore, or punk their user name will be banned.

Oops, that won't matter, because this site won't exist. Maybe with a new name, absoluteshill, anyone?

Next time you describe your favorite band to someone, don't use a genre to describe them. See how much of a pain in the ass it is.

Just because you don't listen to a genre doesn't mean it isn't relevant or that it doesn't exist. Or is this some new thing that I missed, if so, I hereby declare that there is no such thing as ska.

Just because someone mentions bands that you don't listen to or haven't heard of doesn't mean that they're name dropping.

XnotedgeX, I don't think I've seen you add anything of substance to any debate. When you're not winning you resort to insults and personal attacks. If you're going to be an antagonist, that's fine, but back it up with something other than one liners and "treasure."

As for the person saying that Anatomy of a Ghost would make me eat my words with their next release, I highly doubt that. Few bands can succesfully pull off a 180 stylistic changee. It's not like they have a lot to build on.

[The Bled 13]

I was just kidding with you. But yes, of course we need labels but some people just take it way to far and it just gets really silly. Like you have fight over which band is in a certain label as it if matters. Does it really? I don't think so but that is just my opinion.

[Lueda Alia]

I never said anything about that either? lol you're confusing me so much but ehh... *shrug*

and well like I've said before, I take music for what it is: entertainment. I don't see why anyone gets soo serious and pissed off about it. geez, its just entertainment. or well to me it is anyway.

[The Bled 13]

Damn, I'm so sorry. I'm a very confusing person.

I just really don't like it when people get in these lame ass heated arugments in what genre a band is. It's just rather silly.

For me Equal Vision Records and Sub Pop. So much history on Sub Pop and they're still putting out great stuff like Iron & Wine, Fleet Foxes, and The Postal Service.

My favorite though is definitely EVR. So many of my favorite bands have been or are on EVR it's ridiculous. The Snake the Cross the Crown, Armor, Circa, Dear and the Headlights, Chiodos, Coheed, Alexisonfire, BVS, Codeseven, Fall of Troy, PTV. I'd say 9 out of 10 times I'm going to like what's on EVR and I can't for this year's summer sampler.

Victory, Drive-Thru, and Vagrant!

[IWasaCamera]

Seems like an even more trivial matter to discuss than musical preference.

Well there isn't much of a selection if you like Victory...therefore anyone with Victory as their favorite automatically loses.

Like who exactly???

Cry of The Afflicted, Capital Lights, Search The City, Sever Your Ties

[handlikesecret]

i can't say i really have one.
i like so many artists on different labels.
and some artists i do like but i don't like their label.
like FBR, i do like some bands on there, but i hate it so much.

[OdeToTheSun]

Cry of The Afflicted, Capital Lights, Search The City, Sever Your Ties

I like Cry Of The Afflicted though, but the rest of them i can't see why they signed them either.

[GlamourKillsUs]

equal vision, fearless, and fueled by ramen (ONLY fbr, none of this decaydance shit, with the exception of GCH)

Someone said it, its a business. I understand that part of music is business, but it should be secondary.

I can't understand why bands keep signing to Victory after all the lawsuits and what not.

Stryder was tight I don't know what you are saying.
