  Thank you for your ongoing support. PREORDER RECORD HERE STREAM RECORD HERE /// 05/14/12 RAINDANCE PREMIER NEW MUSIC VIDEO VIA ALT PRESS! This is a track off their upcoming digital EP entitled New Blood. Which will be completely free. /// 05/12/12 "HEY LISTEN UP, YEAH, I JUST GOT ONE THING TO SAY" Just
in case some of you were wondering on how I pick
the GKL roster. I pick bands/artists based on
artistic potential. Not on how well they are
going to "sell". Profit naturally plays an
important factor in running a healthy company
but it is not the prime directive. I pick based
on how the art moves me. Bands/artists that are
pushing boundaries within their creative frame,
taking risks without thought of consequence. And
pushing their art through every avenue available
to them in order for others to be exposed to it.
For that I have built strong relationships with
everyone who has been apart of helping this
label grow. GKL is not a "flavor of the week"
operation. I run this with the notion of
bottoming out on every endeavor. Risking it all
in order to get an artist we believe in to get
the exposure they deserve. Transparent,
unpredictable, and constant. Burn Your Life
Down, Colony, Convulsions, Raindance, Run With
The Hunted. Testaments to those points.
Thank you friends. /// 4/25/12 | STREAM THE NEW BYLD RECORD NOW!  You

COLONY LABEL PAGE COLONY ON FACEBOOK COLONY ON TWITTER /// 12/21/11 | BLACK KITES CALLS IT A DAY On
March of 2012, Black Kites will have cause to
acknowledge two important milestones; the
first is that the band will have been together
for four years, and the second is that March
will mark the end of Black Kites. "Why? WHY?!"
approximately eight people will type furiously
into their keyboards. Well, our lives have
changed quite a lot since we started this band
in pretty significant ways. What came so
naturally and easy to us once does not come so
easily anymore and, as we are men unafraid to
appraise a situation for what it is, we have
decided to put to rest this part of our lives
and march bravely into the future.
I think it's important to note that we accomplished quite a lot for a group of three fuckin eses from New Jersey. We recorded a healthy chunk of music, we played (perhaps literally) a million shows, we toured all over one quadrant of this country and almost all of western Europe, and we met some pretty incredible people along the way; people who gave us more help and support than was ever called for, and given unasked. So for those eight people who are shaken and upset, think fondly of our times together and make some plans to be with us at the end. Now, details are shaky as of now, but we plan to play a final show in March with a healthy host of bands that have been with us for the long-haul. We plan to have a zine with us at the show which will contain a discography CD that includes the last three songs we have written. We plan to make long-winded speeches onstage about the importance of friendship and cooperative effort and the everyday "fight" to secure some small place of comfort in this fucked up world... But all that comes later, and we'll know more as soon as the moments of importance are upon us. Until those moments... Love and Respect, Jay and Black Kites (yes we're all still vegan and straight-edge, by the way) /// 12/04/11 | EURO TRIP VIA RAINDANCE  Euro trash, If you see your town on this bill, don't miss em'.

off the press,
The BYLD crew have unleashed a brand new jam that will be on their upcoming EP entitled Don't Try. The track is available for stream on the GKL Bandcamp page. More info on touring plans and a release details coming soon. Enjoy! /// 11/02/11 | GKL + HELLFISH = FUCKING AWESOME!  We
are very proud to announce our newly celebrated
engagement with Hellfish Family. From now on
they will be handling all of our online retail
operations. Why you ask? Well its quite simple.
We are a small collective of artists that want
to produce quality projects without sacrificing
detail. With that in mind we do not want to
sacrifice service as well. As we grow as
individuals and as a label we have to understand
our limitations. Hellfish is a well-trusted
company withing our tightly bound community. We
would not trust such responsibilities to a
second-rate operation. HF over the years has
earned to be a household name in the
punk/hardcore scene. This move for us will
increase productivity, expect to see more
releases and more art coming out from this
direction now that we have the support from such
a reliable partner. Please, go check out the new
store and the new merch that is posted for
Convulsions and Raindance!
/// NEW STORE ON HELLFISH /// 10/21//11 | YET ANOTHER RAVING REVIEW ON THE BK/CNVLS SPLIT LP!  "The bottom line is this split is not to be overlooked. Both bands showcase their ability to mesh many styles of music into one coherent sound. This split isn’t excessive in any way; it is short and to the point." - Words Of Evil Blog Fuck ya, two for two on the bitchin' reviews on the split LP from Black Kites and Convulsions! Big props to the Words Of Evil Blog! /// 11/15/11 | ANOTHER REVIEW ON THE BLACK KITES / CONVULSIONS LP!  "The music contained within though is something to stop you dead, catching you flat on your feet and unprepared. Both bands have been honing their sound for some time now, and on this record, come screaming through." - It Follows Blog Glad to have yet another awesome review on the Split LP from our good friend Jon Husky over at It Follows Blog. Be sure to check it out and other awesome posts in which he has spent a great deal of time compiling! /// 10/01/11 | STILL ALIVE, NEW BIG THINGS COMING UP. Sorry for the

For the first entry, who better than Rhode Island's Convulsions? Putting together a sound that mixes chaotic hardcore and a slow brooding monster, the band is a refreshing respite.
