Welcome Manor Gates to the Refresh fam! The Columbus-based newcomers thread their music with melodic emo hooks, spiteful lyrics, math-influenced riffs, and full-force rock rhythms.

After numerous platform issues with our host, resulting in an inability to add new releases to our website for the last 2 weeks, we're excited to finally return with our Record Store Day May Day sale!

We're also excited to share the following represses and reissues are now available!
All 3 releases are either in hand or expected to ship within 2-3 weeks. No lengthy preorder delays :)
Hello everyone. There's nothing quite like waking up on a day when you planned to release 3 new records, only to find that your website is completely undergoing "Scheduled Maintenance" without so much as an email explanation to you. Unfortunately that was our experience on Saturday morning. We were certain that the issue would be resolved by today, and postponed our sale.
You can understand our excitement when the site appeared to be back online and fully functional yesterday. However, when we logged in this morning, we were greeted with this lovely message:
We have tested the platform and confirmed that we are still unable to add new products or new variants of existing products to the platform. As such, our Record Store Day vinyl reissues must be postponed again, without any insight into when this issue will be resolved with our host, LimitedRun.
We are very sorry for the confusion and further delay. We are looking at alternate short-term solutions to allow us to continue releasing new music, as a record label normally does, as we also prepare a longer term solution of leaving LimitedRun in favor of a stable and better maintained platform.
Please bear with us as we deal with this unexpected impact.
The wait is over! Through The Blue by Fox Teeth is out now on all platforms. We're super proud of the band on this sophomore record today as well as a music video for focus track "Floral Patterned". Take a listen now here and be sure to order a copy on vinyl today!

Relish in your midweek blues with new music from Fox Teeth!
"Wednesday, Forever???" takes an introspective, hazy take on relationships and the circles they move in as it closes out the forthcoming album.
The band describes it as "like being stuck in a timeloop with someone. Feeling as if something is never going to end but actually wanting it to end in a way. It's another one of our sing along tunes despite it not having an actual chorus."
Fox Teeth's forthcoming album, Through The Blue arrives on March 31st. Pre-order the album to get special early bird pricing and listen to the new single out now.
We are so excited that Know Hope alums Lakes have released a brand new single in partnership with us and Big Scary Monsters!
Hailing from Watford, UK, the band is settling into 2023 with their sights set on a metamorphosis, driven by a desire to forge themselves into something bigger and brighter than ever before.
Their latest single, "Aces" pairs big feelings with their highest level of production yet, marking the start of this new, maximalist chapter. On the song, the band shares the following:
"Lyrically this is as close to a love letter to the band as I think we'll ever go. The song is about counting your blessings and appreciating the people around you. It also features our first ever guitar solo, which we're quite proud of."
Stream the new single here and watch the music video!
