In August, Outburn ran a feature on the Top 5 Underground Metal Record Labels, which was met with favorable praise (unless your label didn’t make the list). This time around, instead of a ranking system, we decided to focus more on the diversity of the different labels to spotlight our appreciation and give recognition to them. Because that’s really what the whole point of this is about, to get metal fans to check out the labels’ Bandcamp pages and their excellent rosters.

Hailing from Richmond, VA, Flight Club is a four piece rock ‘n’ roll band that isn't afraid to get loud. Pulling influence from their Southern roots, the group takes the gritty blues and classic rock tones they were raised on and adds a dose of punk rock intensity.

New Age Affair deftly applies their broad array of influences to their work. Post-hardcore, punk, and rock notes are all discernible, with pertinent lyricism, hook adorned riffs, and a grounded accessibility all defining Paradise White.
