About:

The label, which was the home of metal/hardcore acts including Venom, Megadeth, Corrosion of Conformity and many others was relaunched by distributor Koch and management organization, Entertainment Services Unlimited.

There are no immediate plans to re-issue previously out-of-print catalogue titles and so the joint venture will focus entirely on new releases. Besides Horse the Band, the label has signed Texas-based political metal/hardcore act At All Cost and progressive hardcore/rock band Look What I Did.
