After 2 years of not putting anything out I recently decided that I am going to put this label to sleep... I have put out 21ish cds in the last 7 years or so and would have done a lot more had things not fallen apart they way they did (if you really want to know why email me at adam@vmsrecords.com)... Either way thanks to anyone that ever helped out, let me put out your cd, bought one of the cds, or ever had anything to do with the label at all...VMS released albums from the Pietasters, No-Cash, Electric Frankenstein, the ShakeDowns and many others.
I am focusing on my store now www.myspace.com/volume and www.volumecds.com coming soon and plan on starting something new within the year (will give you more info as I come up with it)
VMS Records is closing their doors. Label head Adam made the announcement:

It's kind of sad to me that so many independent labels that specialized in punk rock are either going under or switching genres. Lookout, gone, VMS, gone, Lookout, pretty much done, hopeless, specializing in whiny, screaming pop and AAA, epitaph, basically a eclectic label with a couple of punk bands and two or three hip-hop artists and alot of 'taste of chaos' type bands... 4+ Replies

Those are all bands that are known, but not really big enough to support a full-time label. 4+ Replies

The Gadjits' Yes I Are is still one of my favorite EPs. Tons of great memories from around that time.

I imagine they VMS went under because of those rip off artists Morphis Distribution. They don't pay anyone.

No Cash was awesome. Does anyone here listen to the singer's new band, Mad Conductor? 1+ Reply
