"Demo"
Cassette • FYBS 010
Every time I hear this band its like the Chronicles Of Narnia except I end up in a dark, smelly, moist basement in finland in 1983. This is a five song demo by one of Northern California's tidiest purveyors of noisy punk. Perfectly balancing layers of fuzz, feedback, rolling drums, and aaaaaarrrrgghhhh filled sing-alongs with great hooks and deceptively tight arrangements. This is punk for folks who need to be taught that great noise-punk is, at it's core, the result of great songs.

"The Raptor Pope"
12 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 009 • SOLD OUT
The latest LP from this Northern California punk / hardcore band. These guys strike me as one of those bands that just play punk so hard that you can't help but call it hardcore. If you're looking for newer band comparisons, I can imagine these guys fitting on a bill really well with Bi-Marks, as both bands have an RKL-ish, “blistering metallic guitar player joins a catchy yet blistering fast punk band" kind of thing going on. This one is definitely for the punx! Raging and angry vocals barked over fast as fuck frantic punk.

"Cursed"
12 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 008
This rager has been a long time coming! Over the years, Rat Damage has become a staple of the Sacramento, California underground punk scene and has released a couple very limited seven inch vinyl records. The vocalist and bassist run a DIY style record label together called FYBS and have not so coincidentally released this album on vinyl. The singer is also a "scene veteran" who has been bringing the best underground touring punk bands to Sacramento and the surrounding area for what seems like about twenty. And if thats not enough, the lead guitarist is always active in at least two or three other bands to boot. Did I mention they perform live about three or four times per month? Whew! These guys are fucking busy!
Pressing Info: 400 Black / 75 Red Smoke (with screen printed covers) / 25 Red Smoke (with screen printed glass covers).

"Self Titled"
7 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 007 • SOLD OUT
If you took Bauhaus, 45 Grave, and Christian Death, gave them even more drugs than they were presumably on, made them play just a bit "dirtier" and asked Jaz Coleman (Killing Joke) to sing....the end result would be Oakland, California's ALARIC. Featuring members of Dead & Gone, The Enemies, Noothgrush, Pins Of Light, Cross Stitched Eyes and U.K. Subs. This is the band's debut release. Two tracks of total 80's style Goth-Punk-Death-Rock melancholy.

"Hatred On The Rise"
12 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 005
RF7 has soldiered on for well over two decades and not because of any delusions of that big contract being right around the corner, but because it is in their blood to play. Felix writes about what he has lived and witnessed; real despair, weakness, excess and redemption. Putting up the instrumental muscle on this release, RF7's ninth full length, is a group of veteran hardcore musicians who punish their gear like abusive parents while at the same moment keeping it all focused and in time.
Pressing Info: 200 Black / 75 Blue • 25 Blue (with alternate art cover) Hand-Numbered.

"End-Holocene"
12 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 004
These "highly evolved and specialized creatures," deliver to the mass population a sonic slab of pure Northern California Punk Rock. It's hard to marginalize them, but highly recommended to those who appreciate early nineties punk (ie: Crimpshrine, Samiam, Schlong).
Pressing Info: 200 Black / 100 Yellow • Hand-Numbered.

"Self Titled"
7 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 003 • SOLD OUT
Rat Damage are back with their self titled 7 Inch and they are pissed! The band's elements are all there: gritty vocals, heavy blues riffs and a mission to fuck you up. The energy they have is infectious to say the least. Four reject ass wipes that have played in countless other bands either full time or as "fill in" folks....including OFFICER DOWN, ANTI-BODIES, FURIOUS GEORGE, LIPLOCK, OUTGUNNED, FORMS IN FLUX & BOARD TO DEATH.
Pressing Info: 400 Black / 70 Red (with alternate art cover) / 30 Red (with uber special alternate art cover)• Hand-Numbered.

"Self Titled"
12 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 002 • SOLD OUT
9 years in the making! Northern California hardcore punk/crust. Some say they sorta sound that way. Most of the band are leftovers from the 90's East Bay scene, no one special enough to mention, except Davey. He's the lead singer of ASHTRAY. Listen and enjoy, or just hate them in silence. If your into RKL, Filth, or Dayglo Abortions, you'll dig this! (MRR hated it. But that's a good thing!) The sleeves are screen printed by hand with care. DIY or fucking die, man!

"Split"
7 Inch Vinyl • FYBS 001 • SOLD OUT
The Crucial Cause tracks are songs left over from the "Try Our Luck" recording session, so anyone who has heard that record knows what to expect here. Great thrashy hardcore with a strong NYHC feel to it.
