A to Z of Artists

"So how many bands are actually on your label?"

It's one of the first things we get asked when we tell someone that we run a DIY record label and the normal response is "erm just a few". In fact after seven years of running the label, we've amassed over a hundred. Although we've been lucky enough to put out early releases from the likes of Flamingods, Joanna Gruesome and The Orielles, we've also put out singles from bands that have released one thing and then disappeared off the face of the earth. Here's the full list, one day we might build profile pages for all of them. Hit us up if you want a job as the official Art is Hard historian, your first assignment can be working out how we came to release so many bands beginning with 'B'.
