Label GB

Sub Pop

Short for "Subterranean Pop" 

The label was an outgrowth of [a=Bruce Pavitt]'s Olympia, WA based (print) fanzine, which became the well respected cassettezine of the same name. 

After his move to Seattle he ran a music column in the Seattle Rocket also called Sub Pop.

After initial forays into the record label world with a [a=Green River] 7" (not officially on Sub Pop) and the Sub Pop 100 LP, the label exploded onto the indie scene with four influential colored vinyl 7"s which included [a=Mudhoney]'s "Touch Me I'm Sick" which made the year-end top 10 playlist of nearly every music journalist in the world.

Subsequent hyping of the label in the English music press put them on the map, and grunge was born.

Label-Code is 03159; rarely found printed on releases (basically only on releases manufactured/licensed by Warner/WEA Germany)

Reissue of 'Sharpen Your Teeth' - the underground classic and lone offering from Ugly Casanova. Ugly Casanova is Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse. The long, out-of-print vinyl edition comes with the original 13 track album and 4 bonus songs: 'Babies Clean Conscience,' 'Diggin Holes,' 'Roads to Go to Roads to Go to...' (which were available as limited edition singles around the album's release); and (because you also need this gem in yer life) the unreleased 'They Devised A Plan to Fuck Forever,' recorded during the 'Sharpen Your Teeth' sessions.
