Listen/purchase: s/t by Eaten Alive

Going to start putting up stuff on Bandcamp so you can directly support the labels hefty debt that was incurred when our distributor suddenly went out of business on us.

This is my favorite song from the Eaten Alive  - s/t 7″. They were from Redlands, CA, and this came out on January 10th, 2006.

Doing these pretty affordable to start :) $3

1917, Rivalry, and Malfunction put out a sampler in the Summer of 2006 that we called Animal Style - an ode to In-n-Outs Pickled & Sauced & Grilled creations. 

Later we all got a Cease & Desist from 'em.

Attitude. A band from Syracuse. Still dig the music.

In the middle of Outlive blowing up and the band doing as well as could be as expected, Greg calls me and tells me the band is breaking up.

Yes, they played sporadically after that, but for all intents the band was over. We also went to a driving range.

The first sticker we made. Probably more metal than we actually wanted to rep.

My right-hand man for over half of the life of the label, Calvin, showed me this letter he got from work one day. He must've really hated that job.

Unidentified Guns Up! show in 2004 or 2005 featuring Dennis from Internal Affairs with the huge grin.

Our 3rd release was a split by Donnybrook & Piece by Piece, two LA bands. This was the first project in which we had the pleasure of working with Scott Magrath (who ended up doing the art on both of the Guns Up! records).

For some reason, we never made this shirt.
