Load Records
|
|
Load Records was begun by Ben McOsker to put a 7-inch record out for band Boss Fuel. The label quickly became the most prominent source for the noise music coming out of Providence, Rhode Island --loosely functioning in the same way that Sub Pop served grunge out of Seattle in the early '90s. McOsker has released some of the most exciting noise/experimental music of the early '00s, including new music from Lightning Bolt, Neon Hunk, Metalux, Noxagt and Friends Forever.
The music of Load Records is popularized, reviewed and reviewed in mind-numbing detail through national zines like Blastitude, Arthur and Dead Angel.
