15 Great Labels That Are No Longer With Us, Who Wo

[Guest Admin]

Last year, the Onion's AV Club did a feature on Suburban Home where they asked me to think about Suburban Home's 14 biggest mistakes. It was a lot of fun coming up with those mistakes, but this year, The AV Clubs' Matt Shild outdid himself. He asked me to discuss 15 great labels who are no longer with us that made an impression on Suburban Home. I will wait to share with you the 15 labels that I chose, but I wanted to invite you to discuss the great labels who are no longer with us. I actually challenge you to come up with your own list of 15 labels. I'm just afraid some of you might come up with some labels I had forgotten to include. Good luck!

I came here to post this. They put out so much good stuff and a lot of it still needs to get reissued.
