IRP02 - Capital "Signal Corps" CD
Anthemic, catchy, and angry, Signal Corps comes bursting out of the gate with 9 songs of gruff Long Island melodic hardcore molded by lives growing up in a part of the country synonymous with "suburbia". Long Island - a 100 mile long strip containing some of the most diverse locales and types of personalities on the east coast; Montauk, The Great South Bay, Brentwood, Stony Brook, all the way out to Brooklyn and Queens. Signal Corps is not an album from a band born of the Hamptons or even Brooklyn, but a group living in the withered shadow of the Levitt towns and the 1990’s hardcore scene. "Signal Corps" was named #2 album of 2006 by Pastepunk.com. Capital went on to release "Homefront" on Revelation, "Blind Faith" on Iron Pier, and Givers Takers on Underground Communique.

IRP04 - United States "Divorce Songs" CD
United States were a band from Brooklyn who drew musically from Fugazi and early Touch and Go bands. This was their first full-length. Members of: The Babies, Dirty Looks, the Assistant, The Insurgent, and Sometimes Walking Sometimes Running.

IRP06 - Agent "I Wouldn't Trade That For Anything" 7"
Agent play melodic hardcore rooted firmly in the Long Island "sound" but influenced heavily by Lifetime, Saves The Day and 90's indie rock bands like Braid and The Replacements. This EP is pervasively catchy. Hooks abound without sapping it of any emotional resonance. Like some of the best melodic hardcore songs, these short, fast, and catchy songs have lyrics that actually mean something. Bragging rights: Agent took the number three spot in Punknews.org’s best EP of 2006 list, third in Pastepunk.com’s list and fourth in Taketherisk.net’s (Germany).

IRP07 - Dirty Looks "Dirty Looks" 7"
Dirty Looks were a band from Bushwick, Brooklyn and Oakland, CA that played a brand of noisy, guitar punk some described as neo-grunge. 4 songs recorded by Steve Roche in Philadelphia at Permanent Hearing Damage in 2005/2006. The band put out a split with Bossy and featured people who were in or went onto United States, The Insurgent, Scent Of Human History, Neverending Party, Bent Outta Shape and Crybaby McArthur, the Babies.

IRP08 - Thieves and Assassins "Martyr Brigade" CD
Made up of Long Island hardcore stars, Thieves and Assassins played melodic hardcore reminiscent of Bad Religion, Strike Anywhere and various hardcore/punk bands from the west coast in the 1990’s. This was their debut full-length. Pre-orders came wrapped in screened burlap sacks.

IRP09 - Capital "Blind Faith" Digital Download
