We’re incredibly pumped to announce that we’ve partnered with Boston-based Pop Punk band 5ever!

We’ve been big fans of their Pop-first approach for a couple of years now, so it’s surreal to share that their new single “Life Is a Driveway” is releasing on Really Rad on August 5th ⭐️

For now you can listen to their latest EP “ILY” anywhere you listen to music! Get to know 5ever and get pumped for the new tunes 😘

Thank you to everyone so much for your continued support since the fire, whether or not you were able to donate. We literally would not have been able to continue to do this without all of your help, and thanks to your generosity, we reached three-quarters of our funding goal on gofundme and have been able to put releases back into motion!

We’re almost back up and running, just waiting on the last few supplies to arrive, as well as moving into a new workspace (this time it’s not our living room!). We’re expecting to become fully functional again over the next 2-4 weeks.

All releases from late 2023 and 2024 are going back in production on cassette and CD. CDs are expected to start shipping in 3-5 weeks, and most cassettes are expected to start shipping in 6-8 weeks (probably, we’re waiting on supplies rn). We’re on track to have the remainder of 2023 records available in the store again this August. Test presses for multiple vinyl releases have either shipped or been approved, including the long-awaited Day Aches vinyl so now we’re making sure all of their soft merch will be printed and ready to ship with those records by July.

This has been an incredibly emotionally and financially draining few months but we couldn’t be more honored that y’all came together to support us through it. There was a few weeks prior to launching the gofundme when we honestly were not sure if we were going to be able to continue doing Really Rad in nearly the same capacity as before, so to see so many people come together to offer us support (monetary or otherwise) was an incredible feeling. As we rebuild Really Rad, we’re doing it with so much gratitude in our hearts for this amazing community.

In other words: We are so back.

Summer is waiting here without you

We’re so stoked to working with Italian emo group on their debut LP ‘Fat Animals’ available everywhere today! 🇮🇹

FFO: Mineral, Rainer Maria, The Promise Ring, Braid

A blend of familiar memories and imagined scenes, ‘Fat Animals’ serves as a tribute to the emo scene of the late 90s so faithful that you might mistake it as a time capsule.

The new LP from Southern emo collective Farseek is out now. ‘Who Can Start The Fires?’ is a 12-track journey touching on love, affection, radicalization, and collective action. The move to embrace their more southern roots with the inclusion of searing Banjo and horn sections over waves of fuzzed out guitars lend an almost countrygaze sheen to the project.

As some of you are aware our home and headquarters burned down last month along our inventory. Both new records and back catalog releases spanning our 10 years of operation were lost in the fire not to mention all of our personal belongings.

We’ve created a gofundme to help rebuild and all donations will go towards repressing and general restocking of merch, starting with the most recent arrivals and working backwards. The money raised will also go towards any refunds that customers may place for the destroyed merchandise. We will also be using a small portion of the money to help resupply shipping materials, since all of those were unfortunately lost to the fire as well.

We’re already so close to reaching our goal and we have been absolutely blown away by the generosity everyone in our community has shown to us thus far. But there’s nothing I would love more than to smash this goal so we can get back to posting about the cool stuff we’re doing instead of all the cool stuff we lost. If you’re in a position to donate please consider it. If you can share this with your friends please do.

Thank you to everyone for your support and the kind words you’ve shared with us so far ❤️

Hey y’all, as some of you may know our apartment caught fire last month, destroying everything we owned both personally and professionally. Thankfully we are fine since we were able to catch it early and get out, but it happened so fast that myself, our creative director Ollie, and our roommate weren’t able to leave with anything important, including our phones, wallets, shoes, or anything else.

We got out of the hospital on Monday the 25th and were reliant on the American Red Cross for shelter and food until we were able to get into contact with family. We have been staying with my family in central Oregon for the past few weeks working on getting new clothes, phones, identification, basically everything.

Luckily we had a small renters insurance policy to get us into a new apartment and back on our feet, but it’s nowhere near enough to cover restocking everything and shipping out orders. It’s with a super heavy heart that we’re resorting to a gofundme, but it seems to be our only option to make good on orders and make sure our artists are still supported.

All donations will go towards repressing and general restocking of merch, starting with the most recent arrivals and working backwards. The money raised will also go towards any refunds that customers may place for the destroyed merchandise. We will also be using a small portion of the money to help resupply shipping materials, since all of those were unfortunately lost to the fire as well.

Anything you could contribute to this gofundme would be met with indescribable gratitude, even if all you can contribute at this time is sharing the post with your friends and family.

Thank you so much.

So pumped to finally announce one of our favorite releases from last year is getting a limited vinyl pressing!

‘Supertinylinfinitedans’ a document. Better yet, it’s a time capsule. Most of sophomore LP has existed, in some form or another, since 2014. In that way, it’s almost a time machine, a look back into songwriter Dan Hagendorf’s life and mindset nearly a decade ago. At that time, cuts like the anti-social media ender “The Movies” and eat-the-rich anthems “Dead Eyes, Clapping in Unison” and “Numb Sum” might’ve sounded hyperbolic; in 2023, they seem prophetic. Hagendorf says their goal on Supertinyinfinitedans is to “vindicate its listeners in saying you are justified in feeling angry and desperate, but also challenge them in saying hope is not mutually exclusive.”

Limited to 100 copies, pick up ‘supertinyinfinitedans’ at the link in our bio!

We’re happy to welcome Farseek to the Really Rad roster! Their new single “Salt” is streaming everywhere now, check it out at the link in our bio!

“Salt” perfectly encapsulates the essence of intimate connection and the warmth of shared moments, painting a vivid portrait of love and devotion. With Cameron’s evocative lyrics and blend of alt-country melodies, “Salt” showcases a clear evolution from the bands more pop punk roots while retaining their earnest, heartfelt storytelling.

Get to know Farseek, listen to “Salt” at the link in our bio and keep it posted for more info on their new album coming out this summer!

We’re excited to welcome Roving to the Really Rad roster! Their debut LP “Spindrift” is out April 23rd, listen to the title track streaming everywhere now.

Step into the sun-bleached daydream of Golden State alt-rockers as they pull out all the stops and crash head first into the burgeoning “grunge-gaze” scene. Blissed-out, spacey vocals lay over a thick wall of guitars culminating in a Pumpkins-esque feedback solo—this track checks all my boxes!
