Middle-Man Records are a DIY Record Label based in the ‘ole US of A, somewhere in Indiana. They are PACKED with top notch screamo bands, the likes of which have appeared on our second compilation. I was eternally grateful for his help this year by lending us incredible tracks by (ache/emelie), Body of Wasps, and ComaRegalia.
A brief history of the label, as quoted from their facebook page, “Started way back in the 90’s, Middle-Man Records has worked with such artists as Funeral Oration, Link 80, White Trash Superman, The Falsies, The Browns, Phallocracy, No More, Dead End Kids, Product Four, John Q Public, Kaki.O.Badi, (ache/emelie) and ma.”
Some familiar releases would be (ache/emelie)’s self-titled EP (whose song ‘An Apparition Towards Compassionate Living’ appeared on the comp), several releases and splits from ComaRegalia, and Body of Wasps’ ‘it ends and so it begins again’ EP. Bands like John Q Public, The UC, and Quantis are also a must listen for you skram fans out there.
This label is criminally underrated. Literally every album they have released is beyond astounding. If you’re a fan of screamo or just a fan of DIY, you should check them out. For me.
