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)

The Gotobeds are an indie rock outfit hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With their energetic and raw sound, they have become a staple in the underground music scene. Drawing inspiration from punk and post-punk influences, The Gotobeds deliver catchy hooks and witty lyrics that captivate audiences.

Similar to bands like B Boys, The Men, and Flasher, The Gotobeds have carved out their own unique sound within the indie rock genre. Their music combines elements of garage rock with infectious melodies and driving rhythms. Fans of Omni, Meat Wave, and Tyvek will find themselves drawn to The Gotobeds' raw energy and unapologetic attitude.

Having shared stages with notable acts such as Protomartyr, Priests, and Total Control, The Gotobeds have proven themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the live setting. Their performances are filled with passion and intensity that leave audiences wanting more.

PPittsburgh's The Gotobeds release their new album, "Blood // Sugar // Secs // Traffic" via Sub Pop. The full-length release was produced by the band and Matt Schor in their friend My War Matt's basement, and mastered by Matthew Barnhart at Chicago Mastering. The album is crammed with ideas, edge, fun and a variety of tempos. It sits next to Wire, Devo and Parquet Courts. The music jerks uncomfortably, clangs haphazardly, then aligns for the well-timed zinger and a rousing fucking choruses.CD - Gatefold digipak with poster booklet. LP - Black Vinyl with newsprint poster and Download. LP+ - Limited Loser Coloured vinyl with newsprint poster and Download. Tape - 4-panel J card in clear box - No Download.
