And now for the bad news: some of the releases are still missing, so no full discography here.
For those not in the know, Paxit is a group that noise metal group, although for their first decade of existence, they had ten members for their live shows, some of them playing trumpet, saxophone, or just screaming into the void in costumes and makeup. They went from that to a doom, drone, sludge trio, and there have been numerous lineup changes, sound pivots, and so on.
The lineup changes didn't hurt their passion, and even though they had frequent style changes, the core remained raw and crazy.
This is what they looked and sounded like for a hot moment around 2007, which is around seventeen years ago:
While this is somewhat expected for such a chaotic group, it is not the best news.
As we posted on social in the past - we're still looking for whatever's left of their old physical releases, those CDRs, those ZIP files on thumb drives, etc.
There are also some legal issues with obtaining their debut album, so things being spotty is business as usual.
To conclude: Paxit's new music coming up - is good. Paxit music lost to time - bad.
If you have any of those releases, please use our contact form to tell us all about it!
Seriously, if you have anything that could help us preserve their past music, please let us know.
We are extremely happy to announce this super interesting release, one of the first gems to hit RZR in 2025. A split between Heavy Insect, an alternative noise rock, sludge, post-grunge, insanecore, weirdo indie one-man band from Chicago, doing some really inspiring work from his basement, and our very own Haggari Nakashe & gaop, with a painfully loud, raw, slow, and dirty take on noise rock. This split will be released on streaming platforms around April, but as of last night, you can stream and purchase it via Heavy Insect's Bandcamp (see the embed below for easy access). We encourage you to do so. Make sure to check out his latest album "Out of Light", which was released last month. Officially known as RZR release RZR25SS01, we really hope that the Anomalous Trackologies Split will help to put us back on track with our split series. This pet project is something we try to promote hard every year but often underperform, given how sometimes life is just a se...
We have some very exciting news to share! Today, this killer release is dropping via our good friend, Fruit Exports . This gloomy and doomy 25-minute-long session is a an amalgamation of various musical styles, blending elements of free jazz, noise, drone, and doom, along with a bunch of other genres that cleverly overlap within this eclectic Venn diagram. It was a fun live session that some of the RZRecords team had the pleasure of participating in, each contributing their unique vibe, flair, and creative energy to the groovy noise-soundscape we crafted together. The lineup was: Sabixatzil - Guitar Haggari Nakashe - Synths gaop - Clarinet NishMa - Drums, percussion Following the live session, the original source files underwent a light process of re-editing, during which we infused the recording with some studio magic, and sprinkled some more dirt on it, enhancing the auditory experience and further elevating the raw sounds we had initially produced. This refinement tr...
IMPORTANT UPDATE : We're moving the deadline to December to give us some more time to prep and you some more times to finish your tracks! Greetings fellow sound aficionados! We are again inviting everyone to submit your materials for our 6 ways split series! Hot on the heels of RZRecords SIX WAY SPLIT, Vol.1 and RZRecords 6 WAY SPLIT, Vol.2 , we are now looking for submissions for the 3rd and 4th installments. The theme we requested for the previous releases was "dark", and people submitted lots of stuff that just showed how conceptions change between people. We thought it was pretty awesome that the tracks we received were so different in style. This time around, think "dark" but there are literally no limitations when it comes to musical themes or genres. Send whatever seems right, or whatever you want to share with the world. The rules are: no samples - the releases going to be submitted to the majority of streaming platforms and having copyright issue...
