Overground Records releases punk rock, anarcho punk, proto punk and other interesting reissues.
Overground Records started in 1988 inspired to reissue a few punk rock classics because back then there were few labels reissuing interesting punk records.
The first few releases were limited edition vinyl pressings, but with the advent of compact discs we started manufacturing CDs because we could include up to 74 minutes of music, making them better value.
Whilst the core of the catalogue is punk there are many other interesting releases and we shall continue with our policy of releasing anything we like.
Out now is the Paranoid Visions 'Black Operations In The Red Mist' retrospective 2xCD from Eire's finest. Out earlier in August was Rubella Ballet's 'Never Mind The Day-Glo' a collection from the second half of their career.
There will two more new releases in 2010: Vic Godard & Subway Sect 'We Come As Aliens' all new material on October 11th and in November The Disrupters new album 'Retard Generation'.
Steve Ignorant is touring performing Crass songs for the last time. The dates are: Bristol Academy Sept 24th, Birmingham Academy Sept 25th, Manchester Academy Oct 1st, Edinburgh Liquid Rooms Oct 2nd. Support is Gold Blade, except Manchester which is Paranoid Visions. Tickets available from: www.gigbox.co.uk
Much of the catalogue is now being deleted and many titles are down to the last few copies, never to be repressed. Where possible these will be available for download, but if you're wanting the physical product you should get them while you still can.
All the best
