Shadow Kingdom Records

Shadow Kingdom Records is a metal record label based in Pittsburgh, PA (USA). Established in 2004 as a store and small distribution channel, the label quickly gained recognition for its commitment to promoting and preserving the best of metal music. Originally operating under a different name until 2007, Shadow Kingdom Records has since become synonymous with quality releases that span various subgenres within the metal scene.

The label's journey began with humble beginnings, starting out as a store before expanding into distribution. This experience allowed Shadow Kingdom Records to gain valuable insights into the industry and develop strong relationships with both artists and fans alike. With an unwavering passion for metal music, the label has built a reputation for consistently delivering exceptional releases that capture the essence of this powerful genre.

Shadow Kingdom Records' diverse roster showcases talented artists from around the world who share a common love for all things heavy. From traditional heavy metal to doom, black, speed, thrash, and beyond - each release represents an authentic expression of artistic vision and musical excellence. Whether you're an avid collector or simply someone seeking new sonic experiences, Shadow Kingdom Records offers a treasure trove of carefully curated albums that will satisfy even the most discerning metalhead.

Shadow Kingdom Records is proud to present LEATH?RBITCH's highly anticipated second album,'Shattered Vanity', on CD and vinyl LP. As the band themselves say, ""The 'Bitch is back,"" and here's the proof: LEATH?RBITCH's second full-length,'Shattered Vanity'. Undeniably their heaviest effort yet,'Shattered Vanity'sees the quintet getting back to their speed metal roots, ditching some of its predecessor's more melodic, near-hair metal sensibility for a sound that's piledriving but dripping with the same characteristic sleaze. Not for nothing do they brand themselves ""Portland Sleaze Speed,"" for LP#2 proves that without a doubt, with prolific drum-god Charlie Koryn (Ascended Dead, VoidCeremony, Funebrarum et. al.) providing the propulsion. Not to be outdone, everyone in LEATH?RBITCH deliver superlative performances across'Shattered Vanity,' from the twin-axe fireworks of Pat Sandiford and Alex Ponder to the more-classic-'80s-than-anyone throat of towering frontman Joel Starr. This heavier and darker approach is totally suiting the album's lyrical themes, which span the spooky and horror-related. Above all, the entirety of'Shattered Vanity'offers refreshing variety, moving at many (always-energetic) speeds but never forgetting true songwriting and what makes an ""album"" truly an album. Any way you cut it, LEATH?RBITCH are delivering the goods, AGAIN: pure-as-steel '80s metal done with authenticity and passion. Look in their mirror and find'Shattered Vanity!' Think early Ratt, W.A.S.P., and even M?tley Cr?e meets equally early Jag Panzer, Bitch, and Armored Saint.
