I feel like everyone knows Chuck D and Public Enemy but if you don't know Craig G he is an OG too. The biggest track he was on was Juice Crew's The Symphony. He was only 15 on this track. This track really changed the game in hip hop. It was one of the first crew rap tracks and set the template for a posse cut rap.

Green and black are sold out. All initial orders are out the door as of today!

Green is just about gone.

It was definitely the direction of intent when writing this too.

If you ever wondered what an Earth Crisis x Chuck D collaboration that also features Juice Crew legend Craig G would sound like, today is your lucky day Live Free 7” with CHUCK D from Public Enemy, CRAIG G from Juice Crew, and EARTH CRISIS (Karl and Scott) on one legendary track benefiting Punks for Autism. If you liked the Judgment Night soundtrack then this track is gonna be to your interest. Side A Live Free - Side B instrumental. Streaming everywhere and on vinyl now!

this is a wild one. I love all these folks so it was crazy being able to release this.

These look so cool and they are on quality discs. I think the green LPs and splatter LPs are gone now. I still have plain orange as the base color though!

It was harder back then to determine who was more popular and growing steam because the internet was still rudimentary at best. I feel like I based it on my friend group at the time and what was more popular with us. I don't think I ever got to see them but I definitely picked up Capillary Lockdown and a single or two at my local record store at the time though.

This is cool. I clicked to see if it was the Red Scare I was thinking or a new band using that name too ha. This one is a little more obscure than the bigger screamo/skramz bands at the time. Just checked out some of your other stuff and it looks like you've been doing some other really cool stuff like that Shotmaker box set. You put some money and time into these and it shows.

This is great and to piggyback on this post and Kacey. An artist I work with would fit in with this crowd - Jon Charles Dwyer. We have done three LPs for Jon and hopefully his next record too. We just released his EP Chorus on LP (to fill it out we remastered a 2018 EP Never Lets Up on the B side) and the third press of his album Junebug. This is from the newest EP. This is from his second album Junebug:

🤠

NC's Blood Ritual have a new record Do You Believe that's out today. It's an amazing thrashy crossover hardcore record. Riffs for days. We did a cassette and the band did a CD for now. Hoping to do vinyl for this a little later on. Check it out on spotify or wherever you stream.

All current orders are out the door as of this afternoon! Appreciate the support.

Chorus vinyl is now available and shipping now! 180 gram color vinyl. We really didn't want to do a 7" for this EP so we found a perfect solution. Jon's EP Never Lets Up didn't really get a proper release in 2018 so we remastered that EP and made that the B side so it would nicely fill out an LP. The A side is Jon's new EP Chorus and the B side is his 2018 EP Never Lets Up (remastered 2024). 8 tracks total. https://bittermelodyrecords.bigcartel.com/ There's only one copy left of his album Between the Hallelujahs too. Not sure when we will get around to repressing it so grab it if you want it!

First tracks sound killer! Congrats to the homies
