THE RECORD LABEL
75orless started the 75orless Record Label back in January 2006 and has since released about one cd per month. Although many of the bands are based out of our Rhode Island locale, some of our releases were bands that submitted their cds to 75orless for reviews and ended up signing to our label, including Italy's Turnpike Glow and New York's A Passing Feeling. The goal of our label is to give more exposure to small bands that are making great music, splitting profits with the bands 50-50, handsilkscreening our jackets to create something unique for each purchaser and keeping our prices affordable. Go over to our website and check our what we have to offer. Thanks from everyone here at the 75orless Record Label.
