It's my birthday again, so I wanted to do another giveaway. Same rules apply as last year, with the one tiny difference - this time, two orders will be free instead of one, the 7th and the 11th!

So no matter the amount, no matter the destination and not limited to Rope or Guillotine releases, you can choose whatever you want from the webshop. Only limit is, you cannot order multiple copies of the same record.

You will have to go through the payment and I'll refund the full amount in case you won.

2024 has come to an end. By far the busiest year for Rope or Guillotine

A lot of firsts - first tape release, first flexi release, first benefit release, first compilation

I wanna thank everyone who bought records and/or tapes, supported the label or the bands directly

Planning to keep 2025 a little less busy, although, first 3 releases are already planned and almost ready to be sent to the pressing plant. More news on that soon!

Until then, free Palestine & free Luigi

Today is the last Bandcamp Friday of the year and we got a new record out today! 8th one of this year!

Leechfeast - Village Creep EP 12"

All Birds Return tape is still available as well, €5 of each sale is donated to one of those projects as well

Thank you!

Green Crack - Flexi 7" is out today!

Excited to finally be able to bring this one out. Had the privilege of seeing them live last december twice and they completely blew my mind. The Slovenian powerviolence scene is on a rise, more than any diy punk adjacent movements ever on those grounds. 

This is also the first Rope or Guillotine flexi release, excited to do more of these in the future!

It is also Bandcamp friday today, so all profits go directly to artists and labels. Any purchase is much appreciated, to help fun the last three releases of this year

Thank you!

Today marks the release of Couch's "Spiritual Advisors" tape!

Weird as fuck sludge, or as they like to call it themselves, "slurry". This release is intensely unhinged! Music that I would never expect to work in the way they did it, but absolutely rips and utterly mental artwork, full of details to discover!

There is this underlying creepy feeling to the whole thing that makes you feel really uncomfortable in the best possible meaning of the word

Limited to 50 copies on clear purple tape with foldout inlay

It's Bandcamp Friday again and we have a new release out today!

Foaming Blood is a solo project of Jaka Vatovec (ex Leechfeast) and this is his first solo release. The tape is comprised of two tracks, both originating as soundtracks for two longer still-image videos, made of analog photos — False Magic and Cerberus — which were part of his False Magic project.

We're also starting pre-orders for the exclusive press of Corrupted's legendary Dios Injusto 7". We will only have 30 copies available, so don't sleep on this one!

The whole EP is now streaming over at Decibel Magazine

Physical copies should arrive by the end of the week, early next week latest and all orders will ship the same day

Stream the first song 'Denial Defensive' on DIY Conspiracy & pre-order!

Out July 1st

While human evolution or whatever one wants to pathetically attempt to define our often disgusting, self righteous examples of ‘progress’ as may be nearly impossible to accurately conjure, one thing is certain: Melbourne, Australia’s Diploid exists as pertinent example of moving a sonic signature and personal artistic message forward with unstoppable force.

This tape is a benefit compilation, all profits will be donated to people of Gaza

Compilation features 8 different artists who have a tight connection to the label and I'm happy we got to put together this amazing group of people to either make something specifically for this release or contribute a previously unreleased song.

The list features

Talk=Trouble (of V0NT)

Umdhlebi (of Human Host Body, Melete)

Rouge-Ah

Isildur (of Rattenburcht)

Hungry Moths (of Cloud Rat)

Son of Seth (of Bastard Grave)

Elbrus (of Bismuth)

Foaming Blood (of Leechfeast)

Master done by Marcus Ferreira Larsen (No Master's Voice)
