	Epitaph Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Epitaph Records is a Hollywood, California based record label owned by Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz.
		Most of the bands on Epitaph are punk rock and punk groups, but several sub-labels exist, such as ANTI-, Fat Possum Records, Burning Heart Records and Hellcat Records that have signed other types of bands.
		Recently in 2003, Epitaph has sparked some controversy among its fans by signing noted alternative rap artists Atmosphere and Sage Francis and noise/grindcore band The Locust, leading to many heated debates about what constituted the true nature of "punk" music, but so far the new groups seem to feel at home on the label.

	Bad Religion
		Over the years, various members came and went (including Circle Jerks guitarist Greg Hetson, who is now a mainstay, and current drummer Bobby Schayer), but through it all the songwriting team of Graffin and Gurewitz remained intact...that is, until the second half of the '90s.
		Only one Epitaph album is better left collecting dust (the '70s pop Into The Unknown); the remainder are average or exceptional.
		In 1997, Bad Religion released Tested, an import-only live record on Sony Dragnet Records, with 27 songs culminated from their Gray Race Tour; rumor is Atlantic may release it in the States in Fall '97, but nothing is confirmed.

		Unlike major labels, Epitaph is not participating in the IBM/Real Networks' Electronic Music Management System (EMMS) trials, code-named the Madison Project, which has 1,000 homes in San Diego wired with high-speed modems and CD recorders with access to major label music.
		Emusic is the natural partner for Epitaph; independent artists (like Frank Black and George Clinton) have flocked to Emusic to sell their music online as an alternative to the record industry e-commerce juggernaut.
		For Epitaph, this is a relatively late entry into the world of online music sales, but the label has been actively experimenting with its Web site (www.epitaph.com) for many months.

		Brian: The return of Brett and the return to Epitaph have been very positive amongst both people who have never really had a problem with Bad Religion being on a major label It is really a win-win situation.
		Luke: The Epitaph label in general seems to be harnessing many of the "older," more vintage—and I don't mean vintage in a bad way—bands.
		Brian: The reason why Epitaph has so many of these bands is that so many of them have been with Epitaph since almost the very beginning.

		Hell's continued presence and coaching in the studio insured that the band's arrangements were preserved in the recording.
		He circumvented this problem by "borrowing" members from friends' bands for however many gigs or recording sessions they were available for before going back on the road with their respective bands.
		Through this "better-than-nothing" approach 13 was able to record a demo (later to be issued as the Early Years EP) that made its way into the hands of Rancid frontman and Hellcat Records co-founder Tim Armstrong, who was impressed enough to sign the young songwriter, despite his lack of a band.

	SLAP SKATEBOARD MAGAZINE - June 2002 - Soundboard
		Not only is Bad Religion back on Epitaph after a somewhat failed major-label stint, but Mr Brett is back in the band as well.
		Mr Brett left the band after Recipe for Hate to focus on Epitaph records (which he owns) when the band signed to a major label.
		Well written, introspective lyrics to make you think and ask yourself, “Why the hell can’t I write good stuff like that?” Definitely one of those records that on first listen it is appealing, but by sixth or seventh listen you realize that this is a damned good album.

	Apr/May 97 - Quickies: a little bit on a lot of records
		Isaac Green and the Skalars • Skoolin' with the Skalars • Moon SKA Records • As the vocals are this band’s strength, the tracks are hit or miss depending on the lyrical content.
		And Her Embrace • Fierce Recordings • The disc cover says it all: “Litanies of Damnation, Death and the Darkly Erotic.” This is Gothic Style Doom Metal which is moody and evocative of slow pain and death.
		This is a great follow-up to their debut on Epitaph and it blows the old one away.

		Their brand of anthemic, catchy, and straightforward punk rock caught the attention of Pennywise's guitarist Fletcher Dragge, who helped them get signed to Epitaph Records, and also produced their Epitaph Debut, Feedback is Payback.
		The lyricism, as mentioned above, seems to have taken a steep decline from their previous effort, tackling boring lyrical topics that have been beaten to death by the billion other punk bands.
		There are a few songs that have some memorable lines, and a few that are just so fun that you won't give a damn, but overall the writing is weak and shows a lack of effort on the band's part.

		Brett started the now ever popular Epitaph Records to release the band’s albums on after all the major labels at the time refused to sign them or anything else that had an ounce of punk.
		Their third release was not widely well accepted by the majority of their fans and this caused the band to separate between 1983 and 1987.
		They then recorded Generator and just a year later released Recipe for Hate, which was re-released on major label, Atlantic Records in 1993.

	Tom Waits"Real Gone"Epitaph Records - E-Zone
		Since the early 70's, opening for bizarre recording artists like Frank Zappa, Waits has made music which purposely does the exact opposite of everything else in the industry.
		On his new album, "Real Gone," Waits stays true to his rebel philosophy - this time ditching the piano for the first time in twenty years in exchange for every other instrument ever created.
		The entire album sounds like it was recorded on a beat up old phonograph.
