      Hello there, everyone!

      I'm from Russia, Novgorod, and i'm playing guitar in garagepunk duo called The Zombiecops (http://www.myspace.com/thezombiecops). We finally finished our records session and looking for a label to put on our stuff behind the border. 7inch would be superb, but even cd seems nice.

       

      So, guys and girls, please help me, list the labels of any sizes, which take care of trashy garagepunk (like us, like Persuaders, Reatards, and so on, so on, so on...)

       

      By the way, it should be a great list to explore new stuff, as it seems to me ,)

      Yup, we already scheduled cassette and CD release here, but wanted to have european CD or 7inch release too : )

      Probably, we will try to send some of it to distros outside the border. Yesterday i wrote tonns of letters, but still nothing :)

       

      Thank you for your minds, guys! : )

      Most labels only work with bands they know, or are familiar with, have seen live and can work with easily. I wouldn't hold your breath on some obscure American or European label coming forward to release your stuff. Not that's it not good enough, mind you, but because there are a ton of bands out there already, and these labels are operating on shoestring budgets as it is. You'd probably be better off finding a local label or just releasing it yourself and finding a distributor or mailorder outfit that will take it.
